A cargo plane is carrying a bounty of prize stock chickens to a farm fair. The plane hits turbulence and as a result scares the living c*** out of the chickens, which in turn causes them to flap uncontrollably and fly around the cabin of the plane.

Does the aeroplane become lighter as a result? ]]> Alister http://www.pprune.org/flying-instructors-examiners/396499-does-aeroplane-become-lighter.html http://www.pprune.org/flying-instructors-examiners/396485-cpl-meir-instructing-long-term-career.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 13:42:22 GMT Hi I was after some advice on whether people think that CPL / MEIR instructing is a viable career in the long term? ie, is the MPL going to kill... Hi

I was after some advice on whether people think that CPL / MEIR instructing is a viable career in the long term? ie, is the MPL going to kill off the industry of training people on light twins on their way to a FATPL?

I have a PPL and about 200 hours and absolutely love flying. I also love teaching and helping people - so it seems the ideal career ( in theory!). I used to be keen on the idea of airline flying, but the lifestyle (or lack of) doesn't really appeal anymore.

Any comments / advice would be greatly appreciated. Would also really help if someone could give me an idea of potential earnings of a CPL/MEIR instructor and how long it might take to get to that stage - ie how long roughly on PPL instructing / then CPL / then MEIR etc. I know it is a 'how long is a peice of string' type question, but would like to draw on other people's experiences if possible.

Also, do the likes of Oxford / CCAT ( because they are so airline orientated)require airline experience for their MEIR instructors?

Thanks very much in advance.

I have seen some discussion regarding the use of checklist in the previous threads but nothing really conclusive. There is a range of ways of using and teaching the checklist but what would be the most prefered way and how should a new PPL student taught to use it on a typical training aircraft.

Thanks for any feedback, :ok:
