Kinda like the 727 then in the way pilots said it was their best friend and worst enemy, eh?

We passed Singapore Airlines 777-212(ER) 9V-SVC as we were heading from SYD-to CHC. It was heading from CHC to SIN.

^^I thought there were three planes converging! Yours, and two others. Neat-o.

This is work for me....Boring!

A few of them "moving picture" from yesterday.

I got a new point and shoot camera that takes videos. Took a potato chip bag clip, superglued a tripod mount on it, and its the perfect camera mount for the glareshield. Here's my takeoff from SWF and my landing in ATL. The landing one is blurry because I accidentally had it in macro mode, but you can still see what is going on.

[Leftseat86]

.919 damn that is slick as hell!


Envy you man, I'm sure that is an amazing plane to fly. Kind of ironic that Citations are both the slowest and fastest of business jets!

To be honest, the X is just another airplane. It won't be the fastest thing out there forever, and to go that fast, trade offs had to be made. Namely slow speed handling.

What makes it good is the company. They treat us very well, and as a result nearly every pilot on the property busts hump to get the job done. That's the main reason I enjoy going to work. Flying the X is an added bonus.

That CRJ-700 Emu flies is no slouch though. Probably the best RJ out there as far as payload and performance, and 2nd behind the Dash 8 overall.

[Crism]

How are you liking the NetJets job?

I have yet to kick anyone/anything off for weight and balance and that thing can move when it needs to. I saw 4600fpm sustained climb out of OKC with 18 people on board.

I love hearing the mainline pilots complain about getting stuck behind an RJ...yet in cruise they're always doing something like .75/.76 and we're normally flight planned at .80 unless parts are missing.

The 200 on the other hand.....different story entirely.

Do they have reading comprehension classes at riddle?

I think you missed one centreline light

[brianw999]

High speed rollover on the motorway. 30 feet up a bank after a 100 feet roll in the grass.

The driver walked away with a small cut to the head !! I asked him for six numbers between 1 and 49 for my lottery entry that night.



...and this is my "office". Headcorn aerodrome makes a very useful standby point !

[maverick55]

Not really work yet but soon hopefully. Mountain flying training.

[Airfoilsguy]

I work at a forge shop. Here is a pic of one of our hammers.





This is a part of one of our new hammers on the highway during delivery. It took 4 trucks like this and 4 regular semis to deliver our new hammer which is similar to the one pictured above.
