A bit of context; I am an Aussie farm worker. Last farm was equipped with a Cessna 182 and a bush pilot. High hour airframe. Low hour young pilots. Good stuff. It was my job to show the pilot around the property. A 4 hour flight 3 times a week... And I'd find any excuse to go up.

Anyway I'm going back to lurking. Just thought I'd say hi. Hi!.
thank you so much for taking the time to share this w/ us! I am going to PM you, I'd love to have a chance to talk to you! Have a great day!! Nick

  • If you want to protect your anonymity, you can say something like, "I am a first officer at a major American airline", i.e., you don't have to name names if you don't want. We recommend that you not reveal your full name or email address.
  • After you've introduced yourself, the Pilot Lounge and Career Builder forums will open up to you.
  • After you've been registered for 3 days with 5 non-deleted posts, you'll be able to see and post in the rest of the forums, as well as send private messages (PMs).

If you see any other registrants posting spam or acting up, use the triangle icon at left to report posts. Thanks!



I am a 747-400 Captain/Check Pilot and USFAA Designee (APD) for a small cargo airline.

As I near retirement, I am looking for other opportunities which may present themselves.


Thanks...

Hi! Long time lurker here, finally decided to start posting. Currently a
C-130 guy with no civilian flight experience. Looking to learn more about airline flying and 121 flying in general.

I am a Career Enlisted Aviator in the AirForce. I did 7 years on the KC-135 as a Boom and then in 2005 the AF decided I'd be better off as an FE and made the decision for me that I was cross training. Went to Travis on C-5's until 2015 and then I flowed over to the KC-10. I have my Instrument rating and about 650 hrs TT. Aviation is my passion so right now I'm focusing on getting myself set up for a career after I retire. With my current totals, my FE time, and what I'll log doing my multi/comm I'm not too awfully far from the magical number. Currently deployed for the....I've lost count of which one this is and looking to do something different.

My passion in civilian flying is low and slow bush flying. I have a purpose built experimental STOL plane with big tires. There is nothing better than camping and flying at the same time! If you've never flown into the Frank Church Wilderness in Backcountry Idaho I highly recommend it (after proper instruction of course)
