solve the usual question:where is the best place for training pilot?

October 13, 2008

dear friend,
i wanna all in this place help to me about make a big and larg information about addition training pilot university and school and collage,
frist we start the best flight school(university and collage) in australia with icao or FAA and after it,other flight school?
after australia,canada,and uk,and other country,
every body is pilot and work in airline,say about finding job and how is future life about pilot?

thanks to all
iman

ex pilot,well never really.

here;s what i did.
i went to moncton flying school,in moncton,newbrunswick,canada.got my private licence in 3 months,rented a plane and flew across canada and back to build up hours for my commercial licence,got this in 3 months.
then went up north to fly as a bush pilot.
from there your on your own,ha ha.
there is a catch though,on getting your first job.

you need a certain amount of hours to satisfy insurance companys that the company you work for has in place.,say 500 hours,well you can get your commercial licence in 50 hours,so where do you build up time without it costing you an arm and a leg for renting planes.
i know what people did in the past,not sure if the do it still
but i cannot tell you here or i will blow it for a lot of would be pilots.
if you email me,i could tell you but again i dont want my email add here.

but there you go,
i found moncton flying club extremely hands on and to the point without wasting alot of class .and theory time.

Does anybody travel with a cessna 172?

October 13, 2008

Do any of you private pilots in here travel around your area in a Cessna 172? If so, how easy is it to travel with 2 people including the baggage? Is distributing weight and balance hard to do with this amount of people?

Cessnas are very forgiving when it comes to weight and balance you should be able to do two people, luggage, and full tanks no problem just be sure to do the math before you go do one calculation with full tanks and one with empty tanks just to make sure fuel burn wont be an issue. If all you've ever done is go fly around with you and your instructor remember fully loaded the plane will fly poorly wont want to climb and it will eat up more runway on take off and landing so be conservative with your performance numbers.

Well, Actually, the closest airport to Scottsdale is the Scottsdale Airport. But it's tiny so yeah, you'll probably fly into Sky Harbor.
