IFF,
Thank you for responding to my questions.
I see your point, but counter that if it involves aviation, then it should probably be on the board. I think the subject of the thread should indicate the topic of the message, and the readers can decide if it warrants their attention.
I must...
Another question
I thought of another one:
7. Regarding the post "High blood pressure and medical," why did you allow the back and forth bantering between Clownpilot and B-J-J Fighter--which degraded into absolutely nothing about aviation--to continue, yet you silence the RJDC thread which...
Dear Ifly4food,
I don't really participate all that much in these forums. I'm mostly a lurker. I use this board to gather information about the airline industry, about flight instructing, about new products, and I enjoy the airline humour. I particularly enjoy the diplomatic discussions (and...
I'd be just as concerned with putting on weight that quickly as I would with the hypertension. It's not good for your heart man! And taking it off quickly can be just as dangerous. If your pressure really is getting that high--and it's not just whitecoat syndrome--then you should really...
I was on the A2 window all January (0400-1800).

If you do need medication, you'll be grounded for a short period of time until your AME can document that your BP has stabilized (i.e., the dosage is...
I'll take a shot at it:
In this case, I assume that you're shooting a FULL VOR approach.
You can do whatever type of course reversal you'd like, so long as you remain on the protected side (side of the published procedure turn) and within the protected area (usually 10 miles).
Of course...
Yes, I did instruct at the Academy, and I was hired in the Fall of 2000. There are others who have been hired with time below 1200, but to my knowledge, they have come from the Academy.
I disagree.
Initially, the RJ's were for market development.
Once mainline saw how profitable the RJ was, that role changed. Delta, and any "major," would have an entire fleet of RJ's--and their associated lower-paid pilots--if it could.
Take a look at the way the market is headed; it's...
