Can I get a job with a minor in Aviation Safety?
Q. Hi, I am a freshman at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University and major in air traffic control. I am worried that if i screw up at my job in the future, I will have no way to get another job. So I am thinking to minor in Aviation Safety and maybe meterology too. I am concernced about whether a minor in Aviation Safety can get me a job at FAA if I really screw up as an air traffic controller. Thanks a lot!

A. Being a pilot, I don't know much about what's required to be in ATC, however, remember this. I don't want to try to bash your choice of college, but Embry Riddle is a money making machine. If they tell you that you need a degree in anything with the words "Aviation" in it, don't believe them. Go to faa.com and see what the actual requirements are, or talk to real ATC'ers. Get a degree in something else, then still try to go for your job in ATC. That way, you have a backup.

Can the bottle deposit law work within the aviation community?
Q. Drove to the airfield today, and couldn't help to notice how clean the sides of the highway were. I guess the bottle deposit law is a win-win situation for all people. BUT, I was curious ... if I could have a nickel, for ALL aviation trash, which trash would I pick? This was a tough ques. to ask myself. So I need ur help guys. Would you want a nickel for every euro copter that lost it's stabilizer bar and littered? OR would u like a nickel for every van RV4 or 6 that littered?

A. Give me a nickle for every piece of hardware that ever fell off a C121. I was on one of them that lost an engine. Not the power, the whole damn engine off the firewall into the Pacific. We made it home and landed. I was around those beast for about 3 years. I can't begin to count the number of time the firetrucks rolled and here come old Connie with a prop standing at attention. We averaged well over one a day landing on emergency. What an assignment that was.

What does short and final approach mean in aviation?
Q. What does the term "short and final" mean in aviation? Is it a specific amount of time or distance? Is it different for planes versus helicopters?
Asked by NT - Wed Jan 16 00:52:04 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. there are four legs in a traffic pattenr making a box surrounding the runway. There is the up wind leg flown parallel to the runway (same direction you are landing from) turn 90 degrees will become cross wind, turn 90 degrees it becomes down wind (opposite direction you are landing) turn 90 degrees you are on the base leg, turn 90 degrees you are on the final leg coming in for a landing, short final is when you are close to the runway on the final leg. distance is relative.
