    Electronic Logbook

    Curious what everyone is using for a electronic logbook. Please tell me the pros & cons of the one you are using and how much it costs you if its a subscription or a one time purchase price. I just started my first 135 gig a few months ago & decided it was time to move up to an electronic...

    Need to share the cost?

    If a commercial pilot wanted to provide pilot services for free to fly a plane that is being rented entirely by a friend that wants flown out of town, is that legal? The pilot is still getting the benefit of the flight time, but zero monetary gain. I have been told that even gaining free flight...

    Where to get the most for the $$$ Multi training

    Thank you! Looks like a great place! One question. How do they handle the sign off for the multi? It appears the instructor is also the examiner.

    Where to get the most for the $$$ Multi training

    Where have you all found to be the best place to get a commercial multi add on? I'm not looking for the least expensive, but the best bang for the buck. I have found some flight schools that offer like $3000 multi add ons, but they are only offering like 5-7 hours of flight time for that amount...

    Self-study or Ground School

    Well, time for the next hurdle! Just passed my commercial & moving onto my CFI. Curious what everyone thinks about going to one of these ground schools like American Flyers for my CFI or is it a waste of money? Would I be better off just to study on my own & take some flights with my local...

    Training videos on retractable landing gear?

    Has anyone seen any good training videos on retractable landing gear systems? I am specifically looking for Cessnas. I can't seem to find any. I have found some really good videos on the constant speed props, but nothing on land gear systems. I seem to learn better by watching videos than...

    Oral Prep for the Commercial Ride

    Hey everyone! What have some of you used to prepare for the oral portion of your commercial checkride? There isn't as much prep aids out there for the commercial as there was for the instrument so I was just seeing how you prepped for it. Thanks!

I have already put a few lines in the water & have a friend that says his company would be interested in considering hiring me with my fresh commercial privileges. He has asked me to forward my resume...

    Ground Instruction Hours??

    The reason why I am asking is because I am considering an instructor that has offered a flat rate for unlimited ground instruction if I chose to. Like I said, it's not for a ground school "class", but for ground instruction. I have talked with some flight instructors that have been very vague in...

    Ground Instruction Hours??

    How many hours of ground instruction did you receive during your instrument training? I don't mean like a ground school class, but preflight & post flight training. What I am getting at is, how much ground instruction did you pay for? What was the rate & hours charged? Thanks!

    Regional airline hubs

    Is there a place I can find where each regional airline has their hubs for basing their pilots out of? I know there are junior and senior bases, but I still like to get an idea where the different hubs are for the different regionals. Thanks!

    Should I go with Part 141 or 61?

    The new Aviator Internship Program with TSA requires that you have your PPL when you enroll in the program and that you complete your remaining training under Part 141 and all the training done with the same school.
