    2 killed in plane crash west of Daytona Beach

    Won’t get into specifics but we don’t use Arrows anymore and our oldest airplane is about 7 years old. Replacing the fleet with new Archers and Seminoles. No one type is used exclusively for landings.

    Envoy Cadet Program

    Don't do anything that obligates you to fly for them or any regional. Things change too fast be locked into one airline.

    Gear Up Landing Right in Front of Me

    Unless you’re doing single engine approaches with 25-40 degrees of flaps it shouldn’t be. You can mute the horn if it’s only for MP. That being said, if I remember correctly we have a policy that you can’t mute the gear horn in the pattern or past FAF at all even if the airplane allows it.

    Gear Up Landing Right in Front of Me

    Newer Seminoles I've flown have the "check gear" voice and it's triggered by either MP less than 14 inches in either engine or flaps 25 or 40 with the gear not down and locked. If it's triggered by flaps you can't mute it.

    Airframe icing today

    I was flying around the same time up here near GFK last night and same thing happened. Frost buildup has been fast after early morning and evening flights. Our de-frost trucks have been busy.

    need a bit of help: what to do after CPL

    Ya CFI ride isn’t easy but instructing can be a pretty rewarding way to build those 1500hrs. Lots of options out there if you’re willing to look for them.

    How much harder is IFR then Private?

    Private, instrument, commercial, commercial multi, CFI. Just my experience, doesn’t mean it’s that way for everyone. No need to flaunt your 50+ checkrides.

    How much harder is IFR then Private?

    Easiest checkride I've taken. It's a different type of flying but it isn't as difficult to learn as going from nothing to PPL. Very fun as well.

    Cadet programs with regionals question

    Don't do any cadet program that gives you money/tuition assistance. That's code for "here's a bit of money now and so you're gonna fly for us for x amount of time after you graduate." There are some programs that are simply mentorship from current pilots and some events with the airline but are...

    No trim allowed?

    Bump up the power 200rpm or so and two turns trim up. Works like a charm.
