What was your path from Southern to United? Was it through SkyWest? That’s the path I’m looking to take.
Would commuting from Mco to Mia be bad. My choices are either narrow body united in Mco or both for AA in Mia. Torn on what airline to pursue
Hey there! Thanks for stopping by. Honestly, I’ve never really looked into that particular commute. But, I’m sure there are those who probably do. I understand where you are with trying to determine which airline fits best. I approached it by basically finding the airline that I see myself working for, then from there start formulating a plan on how I would get to work, should I choose to commute. That way, no matter how difficult the commute is, I know I’m where I want to be…that eases the stress a little.
Aloha from Brazil 🙋🏼♀️ Do you ever fly to South America?
Hello! Yes, I fly to Rio from Houston, Texas every now and then
@@TheSoaringSamoan Awesome, but I live in Sao Paulo 😉🙌🏼 Fly safe!
@@tachacastilho nice. I’m based in Texas and we only fly to Rio on the 767-300. Maybe one day.
Hey- you uploaded insane !hTe~=))
How do you do those map animations? They’re great! Commuting is tough… I try not to think about it..
Commuting can be tough. Some of the hardest ones to get on, are right after a red eye. I use an app called Mult…I think.
I’ve been commuting for almost 15 years.. 10 more to go. Thanks for the reply!
Have you had any trouble with filming on the jumpseat? Aka I've been debating posting mine 😅😂😂😂 Loving the content. 😊
We do have policies that are in line with regulations when you’re an operating crew member. However, for non revving, I don’t think there is. But I do my best to make sure I don’t show SSI, and pilots faces or identification.
@TheSoaringSamoan I was thinking that. No tail numbers. No faces 😅 thanks for the info. Love the content 🤩
I just moved in base and have my last commute out to Tulsa next week - loved living there!
That’s awesome. Living in base is great. Where will you be based now?
Wow. Good to see you moved up to the big leagues! Congrats!
Hey! Thank you. It took a lot of ups and downs but glad to have made it.
Good to see you posting again. Keep at it!
Thanks, CJ.
Great to see you posting videos again. I followed your videos when you were flying the C208 for FRIENDLY.
Thank you for following. I appreciate your patience, kind words and hopefully, no more long delays in content for the channel.
Sir, you run two crew procedure in the c208
Sorry for the late response. Just now catching up. Yes, SAE operates with 2 pilots per their ops spec
@@TheSoaringSamoan Hi I am Australia and need to develop two crew procedures, do you have a contact email address to chat
Your an inspiration for all the young aviation Islander enthusiasts out there in the world.
Hey! Do you know if the SAE actually requires any turbine time? The job listing says they want 50 hours turbine time OR 75 hours instrument. I'm wondering if those are hard and fast requirements, but don't have the opportunity to speak with someone in the airline to ask that question. The 250 TT, x-country and x-country night, and multiengine requirements I'll be good on quite soon. I'm not sure if I need to apply through my school, and pay my school for a "crew resource management course" or if I can just apply with everything but the turbine or instrument time. Any input?
Hello. I honestly have been away from SAE for so long that I’m not sure what they are looking for now in today’s post-COVID and acquisition phases they’ve been through. When I was hired in 2018, most of the hiring was done by word of mouth and a lot were hired with bare mins as a commercial pilot cert. holder. Now, with new management, different influences, I really don’t know. I’m sorry. I don’t want to provide you with false information since I left in 2021.
So, a Southern Airways Cessna Caravan loses power just after takeoff at Dulles International Airport. It’s safe landing on a highway, was just as impressive as the “miracle on the Hudson” some 15 years ago. Kudos to the pilots. I am sure Captain Sullenberger is impressed. Unfortunately that emergency landing also shows the “Achilles Heel” of single engine aircraft. In commercial aviation, engine failures are more common than pilots becoming incapacitated. And yet, Southern Airways is planning to use a plane with two pilots, but only one engine here at Williamsport. And it is not like Southern Airways doesn’t have twin engine planes in its fleet. They do. Perhaps if they offered fewer flights, but with more capacity, they could use them at Williamsport. Finally, 20 years ago or so, scheduled commercial flights at the Williamsport airport used Beech 90 King Air turbo-props It was a small twin engined plane and carried 9 passengers or so. And the Beech 90 King Air is still being produced.
wait for the investigation of why
there is no word officially of power failure
Looking at the news, I think I would rather have two engines and one pilot instead of two pilots and one engine. The number of engine failures is far larger than the number of pilot's dying or passing out in commercial aviation. Of course, the best option is two engines and two pilots. Most airlines have that. I think even Southern Airways has some twin engine planes. Funny that.
when you commuted did you stay in a crashpad or was lodging provided?
Depends on location. Most of the bases in the Northeast and Gulf regions, the pilots got together and rented an apartment and shared. There's only one location (at the time) that provided lodging and that was in Imperial. I'm not sure if it's still a thing or not as it was a Mokulele house and not Southern Airways.
Many moons ago I flew those same city pairs in a 19 passenger Jetstream 31 for Chautauqua.
That's awesome. I would've loved to fly the Jetstream than the caravan. Especially in the winter and at night.
🤗👍🏻
Beautiful
You should consider voice acting. Great voice brudda
It’s good to see another uso in the sky, great vid brotha
No two hands on the wheel for takeoffs..
The music is God-Awful. The flick is below average even without the music.
I would love to fly for southern airways.
Its a nice video but the music is just obnoxious. We went to hear the sounds of the airplane and the cockpit.
Too much music not enough dialogue
That was a completely unstable approach according to our FOM.
50 degrees of bank? That's pretty steep. Nice that it doesn't slip down inside that turn.
May I ask you a question about employment there?
Are you still flying the DFW to Hot Springs Caravan route? I’m departing DFW on the Southern Express 449 for Hot Springs tomorrow 5/6/2022 at 635PM.
I didn't realize you could have facial hair flying for SAE 😁
I noticed the captain only started using one pfd, is that because he is only using the battery ? And not external power unit ?
it is because he is using battery
How many PIC and TPIC hours do you have now?
I love how the van just wants to fly on its own
I’m working soon for southern airways Express it is a great company really enjoy ground school thanks for the videos it guide me to understand the company 🛫👍
Looks amazing! Should have all my ratings by the end of January and can’t wait to apply!
Once you get an assigned pilot base, can you keep that base? Or is it mandatory that they rotate you to different bases?
Im not a pilot but I would guess you stay at a base until the airline needs you repositioned, which could be months or years. There is a girl on tiktok that is a Southwest Pilot and she did a video about her getting repositioned from Baltimore to Chicago
Nice job uso!
No bathrooms, no thanks lol
How can I join sir ?
Wow it’s good to see you again. But what happened to Southern .
Are you looking to fly with United Airlines someday like your father in law?
Nice job. Very professional. So proud of you.
Good to see you back at making videos! Hope all is going well with the new job and you’re having fun with it!
I am glad to see you are flying again and posting videos. Wishing you the best.
Great content as always my friend!
Keep them coming. Enjoyed it👍
I will do my best. Thank you for the kind remarks.
As a line guy I despise the Beechjet, worst plane ever designed for a Line Tech...But the Beechjet looks super cool to fly.
Colin, I totally understand. I too was once a line service tech at a FBO and totally understand. The wing tanks are fine but the fuselage in the back can be tricky for sure. Thank you for all you do. The beechjet is absolutely a tank to fly. Many don't seem to like the idea of having spoilers rather than ailerons but it definitely is a beast to fly.
Awesome video!!! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for your kind remarks. I truly appreciate it. Hope all is well.
Glad to see you back, thanks for the video.
Hey, it has been a while for sure, but I'm glad to announce that we are back on track with our vlogs and inflight videos. Thank you for your continued support. I hope all is well.
