    IR checkride -unpublished holds

    Yeah, I heard it from a pretty reliable source, but I very much appreciate the specific reference.

    IR checkride -unpublished holds

    See the one thing I've heard explicitly is that they cannot give you an unpublished DME arc on the checkride.

    IR checkride -unpublished holds

    Yep, just curious if they can give you one or not.

    IR checkride -unpublished holds

    Hi all, Can the examiner give you an unpublished hold on the IR checkride? I know they can't give you unpublished DME arcs, and I don't believe they can give you an unpublished hold either, but I was hoping someone could confirm. Thanks, - Yan

    What a ride it has been

    Just like businesses don't exist to serve the best interests of their employees, but rather to exploit them as much as possible for as little cost as possible. There are other highly-industrialized countries where neither of these two things is the case and everyone prospers. Germany is an...

    What a ride it has been

    They're worried about it putting the national and global economy on complete lockdown again.

    He was fantastic in Shawshenk Redemption!

    What a ride it has been

    They're required by law to run some of those routes, to be fair. Nobody runs unprofitable routes for the fun of it.

    This is brilliant! Thanks for sharing.

    What a ride it has been

    I don't believe I said anything about what anyone deserves, I simply stated what I think is going to happen.

    What a ride it has been

    Personally I think there will be a Cares 2, I think there will be a vaccine within 4-6 months, and I think the pent-up demand to travel by those of us who truly love to get out and see the world will explode. The casual traveler may not come back as quickly, but the true wanderers out there -...

    Taxi instructions

    Was it visible from where you were, and/or did you already know it was there? In that case I likely would have asked. I don't think they'd ding you for getting on B there and proceeding to Alpha, but you never know. Fair question.

    Kobe Bryant dead in helicopter crash

    They have as much chance in that as I do winning Miss Universe.

    Bad decisions-dodging coastal thunderstorms

    I don't have the experience that some of you clearly do, but I have to agree with this comment. There was a time or two when I saw the ground in the video, and I would have availed myself of a nearby airport at that time. And people have different levels of risk tolerance (and of course...

    Will a Covid 19 vaccine be mandated

    You'd be amazed at how much elected officials care about the will of the voter. And I don't say this in jest.

    Will a Covid 19 vaccine be mandated

    Again, nobody is making the argument you're suggesting. There are exemptions to existing vaccine mandates, to the extent that generally speaking, no more than 90% of the population is vaccinated against any one thing. Which is widely accepted as being more than enough. Nobody is suggesting...

    Kobe Bryant dead in helicopter crash

    There's no way to make that determination at this point, hence the lawsuit. None of us is in a position to determine anyone's motives here. I doubt a woman worth $600,000,000 is motivated by more money. Virtually every regulation in the FARs is written in blood, a good many the result of...

    Will a Covid 19 vaccine be mandated

    I was referring to your argument containing a logical fallacy. You're countering an argument that nobody is making. :)

    Why no monthly mosquito/tick repellents for humans?

    It is, which is exactly why I don't give them to my dog.

    Why no monthly mosquito/tick repellents for humans?

    I would think it's because they act on the central nervous system.
