    I have the proX and purchased the ProX2. I had to return it for the ANR cut out issues. Even if you wait to turn it off on the ground and only use it in the air, the moment the wheels touch down on landing it will cut out. I found it very distracting. They changed the way it processes sound and where the mike pickups are. My old dc pro X does not cut out. Sadly once it dies I’ll have to find another headset because the ProX 2 is a no go

I am soon going to be enrolling for a Type Rating for the EMB-145 and could use some advice on what material to use to get ahead prior to class date, I have access to 3 volumes on Avionics, AFM VOL 1 & 2, AOM VOL1 & 2, PRIMUS 1000, SOP, DDPM &MMEL and a couple more all adding up to over 10,000 page of overwhealming information. Please advice what material from the aformentioned books should I refer to get a good start prior to my class date. Also loved your video on Interview Prep. Thank you

    For deadheading or commuting, how does the 410P for under passenger seats? I bought both the 390P and 410P but can't figure out which one will be best. It's hard to know without being able to test it under a seat or on an aircraft. I start IOE on the ERJ-175 in a few days.

    Late to the party, but just got to the part about build quality and longevity. I´ve been using Clarity Aloft Classic for the past almost 6 years, got over 3000h with them (in GA and 737) and only now one of the earplug cables gave up. Truth to be said, I was not very gentle with them. But after trying multiple other headsets I´ve always said that once my Classic breaks down, I will just get a new Clarity Aloft. So I did, buying the Flex at this very moment. It´s just superior to anything else, mostly because of the versatility.

    Hey man I have a question, I’m about to start on the 73 and I have the old school kit bag from Korchmar which I love but have been thinking about getting the Contrail as well. Do the old school ones fit in the cubby on the 73 or are they too big?

    • @CaptainRod
      @CaptainRod 8 місяців тому

      Certainly you’d need the exact dimensions of the one bag you are referencing. That being said, the bag must be thin and tall… probably a max of 10 inches deep to fit without much of a squeeze from the seat when all the way back. My contrail bag is squeezed tightly when my seat is all the way back, but it is also flexible, so nothing gets damaged… I hope the helps!

    Yes… Continental Express (which became ExpressJet) was the initial US operator (launch customer) of the EMB-145. The key difference between the Embraer jet and the Bombardier jet is the fact that the CRJ was derived from a corporate jet platform. The EMB-145 was derived from a proven Part-135 (scheduled airline service) platform. Some CRJ guys will cry foul… But, it’s true. I was privy to the comparative analysis done by Continental Express. And, it was no contest. Embraer built the first true 50 seat commercial airliner. Bombardier caught up with their follow on variants…

    • @CaptainRod
      @CaptainRod 8 місяців тому

      Great input! Thank you. Certainly true and self evident in the capabilities of the aircraft, particularly in its first iteration, it was far superior. In the XRJ variant, the 145 was a true 50 seat airliner!

  • @timothyjhaller8449
    @timothyjhaller8449 11 місяців тому

    No real need to waste valuable mental hard drive space on memorizing esoteric aviation formulae. In your example of simultaneous approaches to parallel runways, ATC will handle all headings to intercept of the final approach course. That intercept will be 30 degrees or less when in IMC. During high volume VFR parallel operations ATC can’t afford a blown turn to final causing a loss of separation, so the traffic and the runway must be in sight. I believe you are correct in having a deep knowledge of these things helps us to have a keen sense of understanding as to what’s going on around and with our aircraft. Leading to a higher developed situational awareness. The 3 to 1 rule of thumb is a great one to get your mind around. But a 100 kt tailwind driving our ground speed to 580 kts changes the rate of descent from when we have a 100 kt headwind driving the ground speed to 380 kts and understanding that helps us stay ahead of the aircraft. Continuous study for "Understanding & Application" are the goal. Correlation will come with experience. Wrote memorization itself needs to be built on. Love the recommendation for cognitive training … Brilliant! Thanks for a good video.

    • @CaptainRod
      @CaptainRod 8 місяців тому

      Certainly a different approach. The main question is, are we striving for good enough or towards excellence? Good enough is good enough… however, the true perfectionist perishes with such an approach. Understandably, this is a rather utopian approach to such a discipline. As always, fly safe!!
