It was common practice to fly the L2 in 3 axis as the IAS hold was quite poor. To fly 4 axis, you had to be very gentle with any speed changes or the aircraft would exchange altitude for speed. ...

So, to answer my question, if you are totally unhappy with the awful service you are being provided with, why don't you do it yourself? There is nothing to stop the oil majors setting up and doing...

I'm not going to get into the proverbial peeing competition with you, but I can assure you at grass routes level there is definitely not an adversarial attitude to our customers, in fact, quite the...

Terminus

You are wrong on so many levels. If you saw the pressure applied by the big operators when the weather is poor, the back-log develops and general leading questions as to why a captain...

Spot on DB. How many times have I heard, "when I flew with him, he did nothing wrong". Yes, all the boxes were ticked and the exercises completed satisfactorily but how useful was the training? A...

Crab, it isn't like that at all the companies and I can assure you, some of the command courses are far tougher than an op captain check on SAR. People do fail them and there are career SFOs. Now,...
