I live in Addison ,TX and I just earned my IFR rating last week. Can someone recommend an instructor and/or flight school for a single engine commercial? Monarch Air does not currently have a complex aircraft, Classic Aviation is out of business, and American Flyer's would most likely charge $200K or something ridiculous for the training so I will not bother with them. Surrounding airports would also be fine as well. I would be greatful for any input.

For a long time flying had seemed so out of reach for me. I always knew there was a hole in my life, an empty place waiting to be filled with a “life passion”. It took me a while to find it, and perhaps that makes it all the more sweet, but from the day of my first ‘discovery flight,’ (when for the first time I was actually at the controls) the feelings of freedom and unexplainable love of flight have taken over my life. Now that flying has become one of my life’s great loves, I know why it took...

I want to know how a corporate, regional and major airline schedules are

thanks!

...to get rid of other peoples jobs.

The place I work for was bought out last year by a company based in Minnesota. This company also has a production facility in Singapore. Slowly most of our production is being sent out there with all new equipment. Its tough to have our current operators get this all new equipment to troubleshoot, which they need badly to replace their 40 year old "magic boxes", just to have them and their jobs snatched away a few months later....

Many of you may recall the accident 4/18/08 over Skaneateles Airport in NY. The CFI II was Jim Spaller who spend many weeks in intensive care recovering from the accident in the Lake 250. There is a benefit for Jim at ExecAir KSYR on August 16th, 2008. We need help passing the word. Please visit for details.

Jim has touched the lives of hundreds of pilots in upstate NY and needs your help getting back on his feet.
