This has to be one of the most adavanced planes ever. Only two were made and one crashed due to a mid-air. At the time it was made it was the...
I am having trouble finding my Aspen approach video. I may have accidentally deleted it. It was a Roaring Forks Visual approach through the...
This is a video of one of my landings at Minneapolis on 30L. It is taken from the cockpit of an RJ-85. See if you can tell when the wheels...
Well, I learned today that my union says to update your resume and seriously consider any and all job prospects. Not the kind of stuff that you...

I flew my first RC today. It was an electric plane that you can buy ready to go for under $200. It was fun. I only crashed it once and there was...

Get 1,000 hours total time and 200 multi-engine as quick as you can. Beg, borrow, and steal the multi time. Some airlines will look at you with...
