Looking at preparing my first CFI applicant, does anybody have any advice or good materials in regards to this. Obviously first time, so wanna make sure I do it properly and am well prepared before starting.

So I’m having some issues with understanding weather theory, specifically pressure systems, air masses, and fronts. For example, I’m having some issues with understanding why low pressure systems rotate counterclockwise, I know it’s due to the cortisol is effect but not exactly sure how it all...

Right. That’s what I figured. Thanks

I was wondering if an aircraft that has just a standard VOR/LOC receiver and antenna would be able to shoot an SDF approach or if it would need a specific SDF receiver for that. I thought I read somewhere in the AIM that they all operate on the same VHF freqs. Thanks

Almost 100% certain that I was correct in my above statement just looking for confirmation. Also, when writing a complex endorsement, when writing in the make and model that the training was conducted in, is it acceptable to just put Piper Arrow or do I need to type of arrow as well? (Like Arrow...

For those of you familiar with the Piper Arrow gear system, I am looking for a good explanation as to how the Low pressure control, high pressure control, and bleed air hole function. I always thought of them as check valves, but if the hydraulic fluid is returning to the reservoir via the LP...

Ok thanks. So the make/model endorsement is usually part of the additional 90 day solo endorsement, right? Also, if he has the plastic student pilot cert, he does not need any endorsements relating to his student pilot cert, correct?

Looking for some information or references that will tell me the differences between CAT I, II, and III ILS approaches. Like who can do which one, required equipment and required weather. Thanks

Not being a troll. This was a real life experience. I requested a VFR on Top climb to bust through a ceiling so I could get on top and do VFR maneuvers. ATC then said “VFR on top climb approved, if not on top by x altitude, report back and maintain x altitude.

If I depart an airport on an overcast day and contact approach and request to go VFR on top, and they say VFR on top approved. Does that mean I am cleared to climb through IMC to get to VFR on top? Or do I need to pick up an IFR clearance?

Is the 360 in an engine code IO-360 the displacement of each individual cylinder or the displacement of all the cylinders combined?

You're still a disgrace to yourself and your family that you probably don't have , you don't know who I am, you don't know what I've done, you're just sitting on online forums ****ing people off because you still live in ur mummy's basement...... How's working the drive thru been going?

Ur a disgrace

Yes, aren't the regionals raising pay tho? some of them up to 40,000 as a starting FO, it's not that I hate flying it's just that I can't quite tap into my passion for it, i enjoy most of my classes about aviation and I find them to be very interesting, I believe I may still be passionate...

Do u mind if I ask who u work for??
