130 kts is only 3 kts slower than our max landing weight VREF of 133KTS in a G550 at 75,300lbs. I'd say that is unsafe and it would have to feel ridiculously uncomfortable with configuration changes wile slowing rapidly at 200 feet. I would like to bet he has 3hr in a Cessna CJ With a local...

If I switched controllers I would check in with the ATC assigned speed given and just maintain. Same controller, nope!!

I saw a Gulfstream at KTEB use it a few years ago. We were waiting for a ride out to our airplane when we saw the Gulfstream on approach. We were saying he better go around or get that thing on the ground. Touched down 1/2 way down. Full brakes full TR's left the runway doing around 50kts...

Canada and Europe (not all of Europe) do a 50/50 mix. They text the freq over then you have to find it, hit Accept tune the freq then check in on voice. Kinda of a pain. May cut down on chatter but seems longer of a process to me. I do like PDC Departure clearances and CPDLC over the Atlantic...

If we recive a PD and 5-10 or 15 minutes go by, as a courtesy to the controller I will call with N89xx leaving FL410. Just to make sure we are all on the same page. If the PD was close to when we wanted to start down anyway we don't. When we do, I'm really just looking out for the controller...

That's funny you bring this up. Just the other day in the hotel I was looking up weather and notams for our next leg. Something caught my eye on a notam. Tried to open Jepp view to view the approach ( no luck "app crash) No big deal. I'll go look at the Gov chart. I almost had know idea what...

I went to Simcom in FL for C-414. Wasn't to bad.

Nice looking airplane bud. Any chance of a few pics of the cockpit?

Because my Di@k be Dublin. I see what you did there. Lol.

Thanks for checking in Yinzers. Born and raised in da Burgh. Based out of KAGC.

I have a 2009 Harley FXSTC. Harley Softail Custom Super nice for one and almost as nice for two. (Perfect for your situation) Do I even have to mention the looks and sound. Really comfortable and sporty ride all in one. It won't light your hair on fire. But what a great ride!! Fast...

Anybody from or near the Pittsburgh area? Only Pittsburgh people will get the Anat thing.

Give the FBO a call 15 min out on there freq. Advise them of your ETA and any services you may need. After they respond ask if there is a particular place they would like you to park. As a courtesy at a busy FBO I will call them again when taxing in. XYZ aviation Cessna N9123X on the ground...

Have to say that is very cool. Do any of you remember a game I think it was called Bombs away. You looked through a bomb site and had a release The board would spin and you would have to judge when to drop. I loved it. Steel

We do if its crazy out of the question Steel

We always do our best to hit 250@10. The only time we bust it is when we get a late crossing restrictions below 100. Say 140 to cross XYZ @60 and your closer than normal. So its either bust the speed a bit or miss the ALT. ALT always wins. Steel

Don't think it's a problem at all. Do it all the time. It's helps the FBO and client Name Cell# Date and time of ETD On line time Hangar? Brakes off? Fuel ? Any services on Depature Papers Coffee Ice GPU Catering Pre-heat Clients happy and the FBO knows how to plan the...

Airliner approach speed is twice if not a bit more than yours. Twice the speed = double the VS down to stay on G/S.

I agree with the post above about the illusions. I thought the same as you at one point "wow this is no big deal". 1 year later training for the inst. first 10 flights all 500 over. What a eye opener. I really thought I didn't have what it takes. I'm thinking what you need is a little IFR...

Bad guys could care less about a sign! And I also don't get a empty casing in the chamber thing. Wtf
