Sorry tids -

I thought I was toning it down...

:ugh:

It's interesting to see how things change around the world and how they change with time, an old colleague in the UK in the late 1980's went straight from completeing his CPL/IR onto a EMB 110 single pilot mainly night freight. he had less than 800 hours total time mainly on piston singles.
The company he flew for operated a fleet of these and Kingairs 90 + 200, many pilots joined this sort of operation and it was considered normal as a starting job in the industry. Now these machines are flown with 2 pilots, and we have guys with 200 hours in the right seat of the 737, our industry is different to that in many parts of the world, the single engine work is minimal, no bush flying. Many people have problems with the concept of the low time pilots flying jets without thousands of hours in GA machines, but it works and they are easier to train than the guys with lots of habits picked up over the years, starting with a blank canvas so to speak.

Good luck in finding a job V

Does V1 even exit on a single?

I've found the trick isnt how to fly it, its how to operate it.

Chuck, as always, enlightening. Nice stripes!! I see Wilbur has been upgraded. ;-)

Actually Wilbur was down graded, when we first got him he was a dog, then through osmosis and flying with me he got it into his head he wanted to be a pilot.

Missing in that picture is his TC Security ID card, actually it is one of mine and I laminated Wilburs picture over mine but when that picture was taken we couldn't find it.....so I went and made him up a brand new one cloned from a TCCA inspectors ID, but he won't wear it.

Fortunately we found his own again so if anyone wants to see him in all his aviator splendor I can maybe offer him a bitch in heat ( Appeal to the pilot in him. ) to get him to pose again. :E

TOO FUNNY!!!

You obvious must be in between rotations!

Actually I retired from flying on April 29 of this year.

Have not even sat in an airplane since.

But Wilbur helps me in the garage building my new Cub and he can't wait to get the thing flying.....

...if you ever get a dog be careful what you teach them. :E
