Yeah, a lot of people in my class had the DTW-ORD scenario. I'm planning to ride a few jumpseats this week. How has the flying been going?

Re: Indianapolis & St. Louis (American & Delta) & My ATP Checkride

Great report and congrats on the checkride! I did mine back in October and had pretty much the same scenario except it was DTW to ORD. Be sure to ride some jumpseats in your time off. It'll be the last time you get that much time off in a row for a while.

Chicago skyline from a Cessna 172 pre screen

Yesterday I got to fly up the Chicago lakeshore VFR corridor on my way to KPWK. I snapped this shot of the skyline and was wondering if it had any chance of making it here.

Which includes designing better, picking the right engine and making the airplane IFR capable. If it is designed for basic flight training, ...
