"Bobs useless drabble" <--- are you serious? Bob has his own way of teaching that can seem odd at times, but that doesnt mean that what he teaches is useless. Think about what he has to do. In about 3 days he has to teach the entire Ops manual and go over all of part 135 and 91. Its obvious that this is just an introduction to the material, not an in depth analysis of each regulation! I think for the time frame given, he lays out the material exceptionally well. You couls spend months going over the finer points of the regs, but that is simply not realistic.
I agree completely. Seems like people are always dissin Bob, but considering the repetitive nature of his job and the material he covers, I think he does well.

Bob in 2012.

Soon as in 1 a year, maybe. It would be a nice upgrade to all planes. Help out with more airport options. Although, I really don't mind flying /a. Good times.

Default Pdx

Any Ameriflight guys here out of PDX? I would like to fly for Ameriflight and want the PDX persective! It sounds like a great company. I used to fly freight out of the Northwest and if we were /A it was a good day. I am close to PDX and would like to know more.
thanks

The company is on track for seven (7) years right now until the whole fleet is /G, that's at the current rate of about 20 planes/year.

Bueno. And welcome back. Congrats. Welcome to the club!

I know up here there are only a few birds. Are they putting AP in at the same time?

As far as I know, yes. They are installing the STEC 30 (AP in the turn coordinator) while installing the 430W.

It's good to be back, Maui was awesome. Even took a C172 around the patch while there.
