Default Crewdog study guides, newest version is now 0605

Hi Gang,

Just wanted to let you know about a couple changes to my Guide.


As you may or may not know, I had my right knee opened up February 1. The internal damage was worse than they thought but they were able to repair it. Unfortunately I had a setback during physical therapy in May, shortly before being released to return to work. There is now only a 50% chance I will ever fly again.


First: GET THE **** LTD!!!!! Get BOTH Lump Sum AND Loss of License. If I had not had LTD I would have lost my house back in April. IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU!!!!! You also should have 3 months sick bank saved up to cover the time you will not get paid until the LTD kicks in.



Second: Even with LTD things have gotten a little tight. Unfortunately I have had to raise the price to $20, shipping included, and make it apply to everyone. I feel this is still a good deal considering you get the 37 page Guide plus the 69 page Oral Prep Q&A. FO’s upgrading to Captain also get a 6 page scenario based worksheet about problems a Captain might face, based on other pilots experiences and my own 7 years as a Captain at Express.



Third: A pilot was kind enough to catch a few mistakes I made, mostly dyslexic errors reversing <> symbols. I made the corrections and took the opportunity to add RVSM and couple other things to the guide.



Thus, the CURRENT version of the guide is now 0605.




Fly safe everyone, and fly each one like it might be your last. Because it might.
