    USA Why not a pilot certificate?

    That's sorta my point of why we should have pilot certs, you said you feel as though it taught you enough about airspace, well there are always things to learn and the biggest killer in aviation is complacency/vfr into ifr. I would never tell an instructor that I felt I learned everything I...

    USA Any one get their 107 Certificate?

    Yup! And it is insanely easy to get our registration now, they should've been doing this so much earlier for all aircraft. I've owned my plane for 3 years now and registration is a headache when done the paper way.

    USA Still Confused

    Just to clear things up, you cannot have your cfi give you your temp cert, it must be an FAA examiner.

    USA Why not a pilot certificate?

    I understand this is a sore subject for many, mainly due to the cost involved, but in my thinking, if you want to be a pilot of a craft in the NAS you should know the intricacies of the airspace system.

    USA 333 Processing Recommendations.

    I got my private and instrument back in 2010, but I just talked with my instructor yesterday and his current rate is $150 everything included. His name is David Quist and he owns Coastal Planes Aviation in Lake Jackson, TX. That would be quite a drive for you! Austin

    USA 333 Processing Recommendations.

    I'm merely talking in favor of getting your PPL, right now is the time to do it, gas is cheap and my instructor is only charging $150/hr including fuel and instruction. You'll learn way more than you would normally about airspace and have a greater appreciation for why they say stay away from...

    Are you using LUTS or just adjusting the color manually with color correction on your cinelike? I was having trouble with softness in d-log. Austin

    USA #333 exemption

    Oh wait, did you specifically ask for permission to be paid commercially under a private certificate in your 333? If you didn't they may not just grant you automatically, not that you need it since you're ATP, but you see what I mean? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    USA #333 exemption

    I'm not here to argue either but this news isn't good. I feel like their wording is incorrect on the web site then? Are there a ton of people who are about to be fined like crazy? Doesn't make sense. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I can confirm that is how it was explained to me by the FAA and a lawyer who is helping me sort through the wording of the documents. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    USA #333 exemption

    That's so interesting, in all of my research I have never heard nor seen that. I would love to see your letter and it's a good thing I'm actually working on my commercial cert to get it by summer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Honestly I'm perfectly fine with people thinking they have to have a commercial certificate, less competition! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
