What do you do when storms are hanging around and you need to hold for a bit.....to prevent boredom........ And just because you can........ dead stick practise!

Does anyone else not find it terribly ironic that the infamous "Cleo pose" is of a guy in a torn-open pilot shirt in front of a swimming pool ?

I don't agree, what if you are applying for a job that you need a particular endorsement for or turbine time? We recently advertised for a role on a PT6, we required an endorsement for immediate start. The early bird gets the worm and the early bird has an endorsement!
