Hey all, I'm looking to build some serious flight time and would be on-board with time splitting. I live in the SAN/CRQ area and a member of a flying club at MYF. Currently hold a Commercial/ Multi/ IFR. Not trying to any 'holding out', but simply find a way to meet other pilots who want to...

Night mountain VFR? That never sounds like a great idea. Remember- we can always fly tomorrow. I don’t know if you’re IFR rated or not, but really couldn’t recommend delaying till day time, or following airways. just have contingency plans ready. What if my ForeFlight dies, gps fails etc...

Hey all, Even with the world of iPhone apps and so on that do the e6-b work for you. I'd still like to brush up on my skills and to learn more about the e6-b I didn't know before. Does anyone have any recommended tutorials, or, videos to watch? I've looked at the Youtube ones and some are...

hey all, I was Honorably Discharged due to a medical condition (scoliosis) and its time to renew my medical certificate.... What complications and/or hurdles do I need to be aware of when seeing this doctor for renewal. I could lie and put no, but I am not dishonest. So, I put yes and worry...

hey all, I finally am in a position to where I can begin my CFI training here in SAN and while I have not been able to fly for close to 5 years (UGGHHH!!:yikes:), I am happy to return to the skies SOON!! My plan is to spend until January '16 reviewing materials and prepping lessons for the...

Hi All! I'm looking for some suggestions/advice on how to return to flying and hope to get some good suggestions from fellow aviators. Due to work obligations, wedding planning etc... I've had to (sigh...) take a 4 year break from flying. Now, things are getting to the point where I can...

Hello, I was hoping I may be able to gain some guidance on my particular situation. I work for United Airlines doing Pilot Scheduling Operations in Chicago, but will be moving back to San Diego for numerous reasons. My work schedule is built so I have about 5 days on, 1 week off- twice a...

Andrew, I did contemplate this myself. BUT, having logged about 4hrs or so in a SR-20 at a different FBO at MYF, I'd suggest going with the PA-46. here's my theory: Cirrus: it's NOT worth the 250+/h they're asking. They fly great and have lots of toys inside, but in the end, you're paying...

I have my entire resume to one side and about 1/3 of the back side.... less if you take away the hobbies.

Buy the regular $75 pack, then, upgrade for the difference. You will get redirected to a website and it will process that way. And, if you have any previous subscriptions, they state they will give you a discount/credit for time used at some pro-rated amount. the upgrade is kick ass, I...

Can you elaborate on where you are going? I spent 10 years abroad between Japan, Belgium and Venezuela and have various opinions based on where you are.

The only reason I included my hobbies is due to a very well known aviation columnist who's a good friend of mine who suggested it. My reasoning, if she suggests it.. There's a reason for it. But no. I did not include taxidermy or anything like that. Mainly just generic things. Quite honestly may...

All, Thank you so much for your input. Definitely some terrific points made by all. To answer some concerns above: No, my resume is not overwhelming military accronyms. Infact, it's not even 1/3 of the page. I was not in the aviation side of the Navy, but did lead about 25 sailors in an...

Hello all, I've been doing a tremendous amount of research on interview/resume/marketing strategies, resources etc... one would use to prepare themselves for an interview. Having seen many websites that promise they are the BEST at preparing you for your interview, I am curious on several...

Hello all, Living out here in San Diego, one of the benefits is having all sorts of airspace around us. I have seen several private single engine aircraft fly into SAN before, and it lead me to this question: For those that have done it, what do you recommend for someone who is looking into...
