Hey! Does anyone have any firsthand experience as a student with these folks? It looks like a great option for someone in a hurry. I am a part time CFII-MEI that flies a desk fulltime and I'm also a Dad to a 2.5 year old. I have an instrument student that has gotten into a pretty tight training...

I have both CFII-MEI. No issues here. But as I train CFIs coming from many different walks of flying life (some with insane more experience than me), they choose to approach this path in different ways. My question specifically: can a CFI certified to teach Single and Multiengine (No CFII)...

All, Hey! I'm looking to retire at around 50 and so far it's looking good. At that point, I'll be in good shape financially but would like to work doing something I like to maintain some of the more fun things in life. Currently I'm 40, almost at ATP mins and will likely get the ATP out of...

Hey, Just a regular dude here seeking my ATP-MEL. Registered for ATP-CTP in August, and will take written and prep after. What experience do other guys have just "doing it to do it" in a light twin? How tough was the ride and oral? I know I can go through the ACS, but how did your actual ride...

Hey all, After 20 years of CFIing, I finally decided to get my ATP. Has anyone taken the course with Airborne out of Wilmington, OH? Any reviews? It looks pretty nice and it's real close to home for me! Thanks, Andy

This was my first time back since 2003. What a blast! I flew down from Ohio with a friend/student/aircraft owner and we had a great time. I think this will be a yearly event going forward!!

Calling Fellow CFI's! Is anyone logging their students' flights in foreflight for them and signing digitally? I know it is possible and I have played with it a bit, but I am hoping for best practices. It seems that the student must enter the flight and then request your signature. Is there any...

Hi Everyone, CFII here and fulltime IT professional (Software Engineering / Network & Systems Admin in previous role). I am interested in potentially building a custom ATD to my specifications. Has anyone done this and had success getting it FAA certified? If not, are there any ATD's that...

All, I know not everyone is a fan of the Tomahawk, but I have several hundred hours in it and am a long time CFI. It comes at a good price point, and if the AD's are in check ... I think it could be a fun trainer for BOTH Primary and IFR. What I am thinking: Dual G5's and a Garmin 430. It...

Howdy! How many folks are doing this? I flew quite a bit with a friend in an Aerostar that did this for years. His mechanics were on top of everything, the oil was sent out twice yearly and the compression was checked on the same schedule. Never an issue. Of course, we know this means there is...

Hi Everyone, A guy I flew with an number of years back started a cargo company. I don't remember it or him succeeding long term, but the premise was a single pilot operation seeking different cargo runs he picked up online. I know this leaves out a lot of details, and I KNOW it is quite the...
