Are there any ADers who are licensed pilots? Just curious.
There used to be an ADer who was a deaf pilot. He doesnt post here anymore. Anyone remember who he was?

Mx757?
I find this a very interesting question. I haven't flown in a while but when I did, often I would end up having pain in my ears from pressurization problems on landing. Other times, even if it wasn't painful, I would find that I wouldn't hear as well for as long as a week.
I do better if I remember to:
- Not wear my hearing aids on take off or landing
- Take an antihistamine before take off
- Take some nasal drops before take off
- Chew gum on take off and landing
I suppose in my case it probably means that I have something wrong with my eustachian tubes.
Do pilots have to communicate with air traffic controllers on take off and landings? I'd be curious to know how they do it.
I think owning a small plane and running freight and passengers in the outskirts of Alaska would be a fun job!
But in my particular case, it might also be a painful one.
flying aint my thang. i hear pilots wreck all the time on my local news. im like wtf.
nope. majority of airports do not have traffic controller nor radio communication. It's a rule of thumb for ALL pilots that in case of no radio communication during take-off/landing/flying aka "uncontrolled airport", they go by VFR (Visual Flying Rules). It's exactly same thing for mariners and drivers. Very simple.Do pilots have to communicate with air traffic controllers on take off and landings? I'd be curious to know how they do it.
many Alaskans know how to fly.I think owning a small plane and running freight and passengers in the outskirts of Alaska would be a fun job!

I wish me
Can't afford it yet but I prefer helicopter
Can't afford it yet ? Is helicopter cheaper than small plane?
oh I meant the training cost. I just wanna get licensed in it and I can't afford it yet cuz I've been focusing too much on my motorcycle hobby
Add the helicopter blade fan on your motorcycle and there you fixed it.
