All of themAfter being in the aviation biz for 20yrs, it's funny listening to non industry people talk about the technical aspects of how shit works
Makes me wonder what other professions watch the news and here other people talk and are like "what the fuck that's not how any of that shit works!!"
I’ve seen the movie, airplane….. I know how it works!!!!After being in the aviation biz for 20yrs, it's funny listening to non industry people talk about the technical aspects of how shit works

Remote doesn't always mean at home. They could be consolidated in a regional .gov facility, not at each airport.
Don't share or anything, just be an ass. Put the info out, educate us don't hit us over the head. There's enough division, tell us how it works.After being in the aviation biz for 20yrs, it's funny listening to non industry people talk about the technical aspects of how shit works

IT jobs. Work remote anywhere and make well into 6 figs.Thought it would be an ok way to make >$100k and be able to move elsewhere.
Good point, if it's the latter, please accept my apologies.
No, most of the USAF drone stuff is done this way. The Army is actually in/near the country they are "remotely" strafing, while the Chair Force is doing it from an Air-Conditioned building within the confines of Nellis AFB, and they can head straight to the strip after their shift, if they so desire.
That’s his way of proving industry experience. I believe him
Both, mainly the news though.
I'm sure at this point there is a ton of YouTube videos on this, but a start is the FAA regs on airspace:
. Looking at a map the routes may seem like they are taking you the long way to you destination, but the controllers are sequencing planes in for approaches a few hundred miles from the destination, avoiding weather, different equipment capabilities on the aircraft etc.
It's the internet way man!!That’s his way of proving industry experience. I believe him
Wasn't the USAF having issues with drone pilots having a hard time switching from running drones to protect our troops and our allies or shooting people, dropping bombs, etc to going home at the end of the day?
My efficiency comparison was this:Both, mainly the news though.
I'm sure at this point there is a ton of YouTube videos on this, but a start is the FAA regs on airspace:
It's actually a very efficient if you know what's going on, the obvious goal is to keep planes from hitting each other. Most of the perceived inefficiencies are because people describe what's going on wrong "the towers telling the plane to circle the airport"
I have a friend who is a center controller back in Chicago and the stories he was telling when the centers were getting whacked by COVID evacuations are pretty crazy. As in they would close it in the middle of the day and hand it all off to another center type stuff and or a few major airports reverting back to non controlled airspace when they closed the tower due to the coof. Non controlled meaning it's the pilots job to see and avoid each other as opposed to a controller.
I wanted to go into ATC but at the time it was hard to get in and they JUST started hiring controllers off the street. Before you had to go to thier special academy. That and you would have to deal with pilots all day which is miserable in and of itself.
Oh yeah for sure!! The solution to problems is to throw complexity and layers of red tape at problems until they go away or get buried.My efficiency comparison was this:
Behind the scenes (ATC, flight ops,) = efficiency
Up front (airport and security) = inefficient shit show
It amazes me that the stark differences work so closely together
Yup, wife's a tech headhunter.... I hear all about how much you fuckers are getting paid!IT jobs. Work remote anywhere and make well into 6 figs.
I live where I want in an RV working 4/10s doing AWS Cloud Engineer work. My lifestyle is Aloha Thursday. All of my professional decisions are made on the foundation of - Aloha Thursday.
Life is too short for it to suck.
Never were truer words spoken. Add in corporate and shit gets 10x worse Especially if you're in maintenance.
I went to college to be an airline pilot, 9/11 was my first week of school so that reversed that plan. All the laid off airline pilots at the FBO I was working at told me this. They all said stay on the ground, get a real job and fly for fun.

We do the same things. IT Project Managers are worthless overpaid superstars. PMP Cert from memorized brain dumps, read a book for dummies on the topic and get your wife to get you in.Yup, wife's a tech headhunter.... I hear all about how much you fuckers are getting paid!
Problem is, I'm hilariously bad at math and anything like maths.
Luckily for my job I can fake it, ask a friend, delegate or lean on an intern so it doesn't come up that much.
That was kind of a neat and sad story to listen to.
Start your own bis. as an IP?Dont get me wrong, it is a great career that pays well for the amount of time we have off. I'm disgusted that I am losing it over the vax, however the passion for flying gets beat down by corporate/fed BS over the years. I am not looking forward to having a real job
I am holding out hope that the mandate will be reconsidered/revoked before my termination date. I still have 20 years to give the industry before retirement, would love to not have to start over.

Damn, you've got to respect that you're willing to walk on that much money and time off for principles.Dont get me wrong, it is a great career that pays well for the amount of time we have off.

All the places one can tastefully save money it is illegal to do so because someone went overboard once upon a time so now you're only allowed to skimp in places that are so asinine nobody has tried to do it before.
Fly on, sky king
Don’t forget… they also have to be on the lookout for runway staff becoming instant pilots and never coming back!!!!!
Do IT companies hire new grads in their 40s or is it strictly a young persons game?IT jobs. Work remote anywhere and make well into 6 figs.
