Congrats on hitting 3,000. That is a feat that only your pointy-nosed fellows might appreciate
Is that F-16 time only or total military including any white jet IP time and such?
XC requirements for the ATP is any flight covering a distance further than 50nm from home base (does NOT require a landing).
This of it as a way for those B-52 crew who are flying intra-continental missions yet taking off and landing at the same base getting credit for those *X/Cs*. If you took off from your base and flew to a working area more than 50nm away then you could count it towards your XC total. I'm also assuming that if you didn't have your commercial certificate prior to the military flight training that you got the equivalency done sometime during your military career.
TYVM for the reply.
1. Bring the hours... check
3. Almost all my time is XC... check (gonna be fun figuring out where I did pattern-only...)
2. Any words on putting my entries into a more interview friendly format, in the words of Bozo, my logbook is a mess
?
I got my commercial certificate (centerline thrust restricted) immediately after I graduated pilot training via a mil equivalency deal, just started on my ATP, too bad no mil-equivalency for that! Does it matter when I got the commercial ticket signed off?
In regards to the hours, that 3k is grand total and includes student, white jet, and fighter. I've only got about 1450 hours in the Viper. Just crappy timing and a sign of the times. I've always been somebody who would much rather fly then work on some project, yet I always seem to get the jobs that keep flying as an additional duty.
