By the preview picture alone, I'm not going to watch that video.

Well he did survive didn't he? So regardless if he went about it incorrectly or not, he still did better than some.

Superior pilots use their superior judgement to avoid having to use their superior skill.

In before this turned into a Chevy/Ford, PC/Mac, etc/etc debate.

The rough hack you are talking about goes like this. 250 IAS 14000' MSL = 14K'MSL 250 + 250*.02*14 = 250 + 70 = 320 Increase your IAS by 2% for every thousand feet for a rough hack.

Worthless without pics!

OK, so bottom line. What would you guys say is the easiest masters to get? I just need one to check the box. I could really care less if it's from Yale, ERAU, or the Derek Zoolander Center For Children Who Can't Read Good And Wanna Learn To Do Other Stuff Good Too.

This isn't even a demotivational poster thread any more... Name it what it is "Almost Porn Poster Contest"

I agree... definitely some quiver lip going on.

hilarious

Like it was posted here, filing through base ops will basically let security forces know that you are going out to the airplane. Filing through duats doesn't do anything for you until you call clearance delivery. Some sky cop saw them walk out to the airplane and fire it up. Immediately he got a power erection and decided to arrest said individuals on suspicion. Kind of like another buddy of mine who was driving 8 mph in a 15 mph zone on base and got pulled over for driving suspiciously slow... but that's a whole other story. Long story short: Mil Field = Base Ops ............. Civ Field = Duats or 1-800-WXBRIEF

Do not file through DUATS while departing from a mil field. We had a fellow FAIP figure that out the hard way a while ago. A little time in jail and a phone call to the DO was required.

OUCH!

I've been in for 3 years and haven't been mentored yet.

Was anyone else watching and hoping one of them would hit one of those reflective land dividers?

Actually, green might or might not be in the book. Blue just means they have at least one approach in the DOD high book.

I didn't even read the title... I figured it was in arabic or something.

Trust me, the FAIPs will appreciate the fact that it takes you 3.1 minutes less than everyone else.

Thread Revival: I just got a new iPhone so I'm allowed to be all hip and condescending now. Do you any of you guys have iPhones and if so, what Apps do you have? There have to be some great aviation ones out there. I've got FltPlan that gives a lot of good information on every airport in the US but most importantly, where the FBOs are located on the field and their phone numbers. Also, I have aeroweather that gives METARs and TAFs.

Stop making fun of me. They were shooting me and it really hurt!

British humor makes me want to fill my ears with quick dry epoxy.

Next person to post gets the first on page 5.... aaaaannnnnndddddd GO!
