I am 16 years old and have already soloed a single engine tri-gear and tailwheel airplane,but I would like to solo a multi-engine. Many people have told me that a student pilot can’t be signed off to solo a multi-engine. Is this true?

Roger asked:


Thank you for looking. I was wondering if in order to become a pilot for a commercial airline if I need a college degree? If so can it be any four year degree, or does it have to do with aviation or that sort of things? Would a degree from a university online be looked down upon? Around how long does it take before you start making decent money? Thank you.
Also does anyone know of any good aviation schools in southern california that are looked good upon? Thank you

What about a helicopter pilot? Also, if you have had laser eye surgery and have a corrected 20/20 vision are you able to be a pilot? Or do you have to have good uncorrected vision?

Not the Royal Air Force, I mean the Air Corps in the army.

I think I’d rather join a different corps/regiment if it’s unlikely I can be a pilot.

(ATM I have 2 NVQs and a few GCSEs, so I’m not sure I can join as an officer pilot immediately)

I’m willing to work hard to achieve this. How possible is it to train to be a helicopter pilot? I know I’d have to join as ground crew or something first.
Thanks

supercalifragiolistic asked:


I just moved into an apartment that has a gas hot water heater and a “decorative” gas fireplace. All the other appliances are electric, including the main heating system. The fireplace doesn’t work well for heating purposes and since it’s approaching the warmer summer months I wonder if I should have the pilot light shut off to save money? How much gas does just having the pilot light use?

nerris121 asked:


I say landing an F-22 on a moving ship at night with crosswinds is probably the hardest thing a pilot can do.
What do you say is the hardest?

PLEASE REMEMBER: I’m not asking for something like engine failure or aileroin damaged.
I’m asking for the answer in NORMAL CONDITIONS.
