Paul V asked:


If a pilot flies his jet plane faster than Mach 1, can he still hear the noise of his own jet engine? I speculate “yes”, but not sure why. But to some people, if the pilot can hear his own jet engine, then he is not flying faster than sound. I like to know. Thank you for replying.

 

so does a pilot gets to spend time with his family often?

Woot asked:


I thought they rarely get to see their family, but I I heard an average pilot flies for 75 hours a month…

Pretty ironic, 75hrs is not much, so I’m assuming they see their family quite a lot?

If you are a pilot, how often do you see your family and for how long do you stay with them?

Just out of curiosity, I know you have to be 16 to get your pilot license but I wasn’t sure about co-pilot.
