How do you log flight time?
eagle5 replied to napoleonpp's topic in General Military Helicopter Discussions
Having just reached 1000 hours and finally landed a job that pays a "liveable wage" where I'll be flying my ass off in a sweet, airconditioned, turbine, I've decided that (from now on) only "skids up to skids down" is loggable! -
Anyone have experience with this company. They're job ad on JSfirm starts pretty good, but then seems to turn boatpixy at the end? Is this just the new flight school sales pitch?
-
Just how many pilots were getting on each year with no turbine experience in NYC?

Do most Army soldiers want aviation?
eagle5 replied to Shindig's topic in General Military Helicopter Discussions
On second thought, you're all over our forum, so f*ckit I ain't goin' nowhere! I mean hell 10 pages in 24 hours! This insanity is the most entertaining sh*t around. It even beats that old JH forum where EMS and GOM pilots go to whine about their day. -
I've never heard anyone mention NYC as a place for 1000 hour pilots with no turbine to go for an entry level turbine gig, so I would think it would hurt 2nd tier turbine pilots more than 1sr tier?
-
I can understand why the GOM is cutting back, but why is NYC cutting tours?

Only for the purpose of flight, which a maintenance run-up is not. So is this just the go-to meeting place for you guys? Is it a, "Talk to you tomorrow on that, Do most Army... thread" thing? -
Just got one more for the 700 hour Robbie crowd. Of course there is a catch, you can't weigh more than 170 lbs! So we're up to 10 now for low timers who are tired of teaching, and its only the first week in March. The shortage is really on a roll now!

There's no doubt that this thread will reach 100 pages. The disappointing fact though is that at least half of them are just you guys chatting with each other about inter-office "watercooler" type stuff. That's like padding your flight log with maintenance run-ups! -
Military to Civilian Lessons Learned

We have to be the sole occupant of the aircraft. Gives us something to look forward to, i.e. kicking the instructors fat ass out so we can see what a 22 can really do!- 56 replies
