Living the dream
Does it help us when we turn our squawk off? Or can you still see our sped anyway? Allegedly.
. . . sometimes a real boring day in the tower can perk up after seeing a F18 going TOO fast into the break.
I was an Air Traffic Controller until December 1st when I got picked up for the flying CWO program. The ATC scopes do get recorded (even the old Navy scopes) and the TAS is on there. They can calculate the distance a target has gone in an amount of time and be right on, I have seen it in incedent reports.
Is there such a thing?
Also, in the mid 90s, I didn't get the nice black holder either. My card is in my wallet (I don't know why) and it's trashed. Can I get T-ball to sign a new one for me?
I thought that was the only official documentation that I'm a real pilot, so mine's in a safe.
Now, the SERE certificate, that's in the fireproof safe, with multiple copies in different locations. I ain't never doing that again.
Gentlemen...I give you:I think the stuff that actually matters are the entries into NATOPS jackets and the logbook. Never hurts to make copies of the stuff in your various jackets.
I guess that's great if you're in ... but if you're out -- you can't get onto the website. :icon_wink
Nose,
Was your's embossed with a US Navy stamp like a notary would use? Mine is.
Unless Henry Ford gets back with different info, I can tell you what I was told in a pretty interesting conversation with some ATC guys in Meridian.
They have equipment that sort of converts GS to AS based on the density and such. For example...
