    The Pacific: General Aviation & Questions - NAV/GPSRNAV VS PBN/RNP2 and you - Until July 13th, GPSRNAV is seen as equivalent to RNP2 as a navigational tolerance ATC can use for separation. Come July 14th, GPSRNAV is consigned to history - it is an extolerance, shuffled off this mortal plane, fallen off the


    Indeed.

    Knowing that puling really hard can, in certain circumstances, produce a stall is just too much too remember.

      Acronyms, specific data, regulations, nuances, computer-enhanced navigation is not all the same.

      I don't have an expletive clue what they are talking about.

      Clearly the curriculum at the flight school, and all the BS about managing attitude, airspeed, and understanding AOA and what your options and ramifications are when a stall warning is going off...it's all useless fluff.

        Ah. Got it.
        Yes, I read all the thread and didn't understand a single word (or a single acronym) of it.

          3WE - You don't need to know what they're talking about.

          Perhaps you don't realise that there is actually a s#$load more to flying an aircraft in a professional environment than just spending your time talking about the basics of flight (which 99% of pilots get right every day of the week).

          That isn't discussion for a flying school, its a discussion between professional aviators (and, fwiw, not even your average line pilots) and ATC about a change in the ATC system that impacts the way you need to fill out the flight plan.

            No, I realize it and consider it both impressive and important and also understand the 99% thing.

            Nevertheless, when the 1% (sometimes flying the top of the line advanced aircraft) (and you actually left off a decimal point and several zeros) displays incredibly limited knowledge of the basics, 1) it's kind of amazing and 2) it can generate some parlour talk as to whether the intense nitty gritty detail ever detracts from the basics any at all.

            Plus- I have heard your colleagues cite instances from modern flight schools where the basics are sometimes compromised to focus on the specifics...they also sometimes used the slang term puppy mill.
