A couple of new "Jon Reed's" and a section I wrote on the flight home yesterday entitled "Recurrent Training" under "airline flying"

Enjoy!

Wohhooo!

This = less bored at work.

Doug Taylor · May 13th, 2003, 13:40

Bored at work?

"Yeah, about those TPS reports..."

Strangely, the hardest part for me is finding five days of “business casual” to wear during training.

Luckily, we were able to perform satisfactorily in the simulator on Day four and were able to receive credit for all of our maneuvers. So our checkride consisted of me performing a 1600 RVR instrument takeoff and engine failure at V1, a single-engine ILS, a two-engine ILS glideslope out approach and a single-engine missed approach. The captain executed an engine failure before V1, a raw data VOR approach, missed approach, a single-engine approach, and a landing with a flap malfunction.

What? No NDB!!!

Doug Taylor · May 13th, 2003, 15:10

Oh yeah, we did an NDB on the second day of simulator training. Pretty easy though.

My memory fails me!

Doug ... I just finishing reading your article on Recurrent Training, sounds like 5 days of fun. Thanks for the well written article which included lots of great information and keeps junior pilots like myself informed.

Thanks for the thanks! That's why the website's here my man!

ISUCollegePilot · May 13th, 2003, 16:32

Of Course Doug! Just wanted to shed a friendly statement of appreciation for this website.

Doug Taylor · May 13th, 2003, 18:31

I'm waiting to see how many days it takes Iain to see my London Tube "Mind the Gap" sticker on my flight kit in the picture!

I_Money · May 13th, 2003, 18:56

Everyone thinks the sticker is something profane so I've got to explain that it's a London Tube inside joke.

It's one of my pieces of "Flair"

Visceral · May 14th, 2003, 11:37

My first time riding in the tubes and I hear this "MIND THE GAP". Why don't they ask you to "MIND THE TRAIN"? Maybe all the English would be stuck in that gap without the signs and warnings.

I_Money · May 14th, 2003, 11:48

^^ You are not meant to go on the tracks and get in the way of the train!!

I think the crowd in rush hour are far more dangerous then the gap!

Doug Taylor · May 14th, 2003, 11:49

Now I've got "...Embankment....Embankment... Embankment..." stuck in my head! hahaha!

davetheflyer · May 14th, 2003, 11:50

The Jetstream has a placard above the door that says "Mind your head." For some reason it always struck me as funny., especially when listening to the FA tell the disembarking pax "mind your head, mind your head."

"Nine Inch Nails"

Obvious!

"Furloughed but not Forgotten", "APSA - Airline Pilot Security Alliance", "London Tube"

"Korn" sticker, "ALPA PAC 2002", "ALPA PAC 2003 - Capitol Club Member"

CPilotUK · May 14th, 2003, 12:33

Hi Doug,

You'd make a fine good ambassador for our renowned London Underground. Do you fancy a career change?

How about setting up tubecareers.com?

ready2fly · May 14th, 2003, 12:34

pilot602 · May 14th, 2003, 12:35

mastermags · May 14th, 2003, 12:37

E_Dawg · May 14th, 2003, 14:31
