What is the speed of an large commercial airplane just before liftoff?

I had a former student who attended Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. He's gotten all of his ratings for commercial pilot and is awaiting a slot for the Navy to learn to fly jets. Look them up. He's actually working as a recruiter for this university, so you may meet him. His name is Jake.

How would an AC like the Fairy Rotodyne work with todays technology? would it work as a "communter " type AC?

I have two brothers who are private pilots with no military training and they could pursue their commercial license but don't due to the expense and time. They started as everyone does, with a single engine rating, then moved up to IFR and twins. They could've simply taken the next steps and rated on jets, multis and then on to charters, tours and commercial.

Any one need an IL76 charter ?


Yes, you can obtain a commercial license privately, but it's much faster, easier and cheaper to simply join one of the armed services. All of the commercial pilots I've known and flown with in my work have come from military backgrounds and none of them ever had anything bad to say about their training or experience. In fact many of them attribute the military service for giving them direction and focus in their careers. The airlines typically recruit right from the retired service pilot pool.

Good luck with your decision and start studying and preparing now...

can anybody tell me the method of makind a small aeroplane?

You could get your commercial licence, then an instructor's rating and then build time and experience as an instructor. The pay for a beginning instructor is low and there is always demand due to turnover. The school where you get your licences would be the place to target for employment. As your career progresses you can get advanced ratings along the way, ussually the school you are instructing at will give you a small staff discount on rental rates.

can an air plane take reverse on the ground?

you should find out how to apply to the airforce academy. do not....i repeat DO NOT come in enlisted. the only place the airforce looks for pilots is the academy. belive me i know from experiance. i came in enlisted started going to school at embry riddle and now they dont even consider Officer canidate school grads (which is where people go who have degrees already) but if you go to the academy you come out a officer and depending on how well you are at acedemics you'll be a pilot four years after you graduate highschool. the civilian route is expensive, at least $40,000 to get all the way to a air line type pilot.

Can a Huey really lift a boat ?

Only if you are lucky. God knows there are way too many pilot bums so called CFIs (Flight Instructors wanna be Captains soon) hanging out at your local airports paying bleeding amounts of student loans each month. Only when the opportunity comes and with some luck and 90 percent skill, you can land a good job flying planes for a living. If you like to be poor for a while and like to hang around airports, don't be lazy and don't have a regular life. There is no short cuts or easy route in this aviation career.
