“As a test pilot, you need to understand what the engineers are developing and want to test. You also have to be able to translate this to the operational environment of a cockpit. To successfully carry out this dual function, it’s a great advantage that I also fly commercial scheduled flights. Because that means I know exactly what’s happening in the cockpit of passenger aircraft." Arun Karwal works as a Research Test Pilot at the Flight Operations department of NLR, the Netherlands Aerospace Centre.

If only this aircraft were offered with an alternative powertrain not reliant on AvGas I think it would, quite literally, be flying off the shelf. A turbine - or e-diesel - powered variant would be the perfect platform for developing regional air services ahead of the introduction of electric aircraft platforms, helping speed up the transition as aircraftcbecome certified. #regionalairmobility #sustainableaviation #electricflight #regionalconnectivity

CONNECT With Professional Pilots Who Fly Your Specific Aircraft Inside A Global Network 🌎 With Ongoing Access To NEW Job & Contract Opportunities And Uncover Multiple Income Streams That Result In Financial Stability
The Gulfstream G500 Stands Out In The General Aviation Industry As A Premier Choice For Contract Pilots And Is Known For Being The Best In Its Class. The G500 boasts cutting-edge avionics with the Symmetry Flight Deck, which includes active control sidesticks and the most extensive use of touchscreen technology in the industry. Its impressive performance capabilities, with a maximum range of 5,300 nautical miles and a high-speed cruise of Mach 0.90, make it a versatile option for various missions. Given the exceptional capabilities and demand for the Gulfstream G500, contract pilots operating this aircraft are compensated accordingly. The daily pay rate for contract pilots flying the G500 typically ranges from $2,000 to $3,000, depending on factors such as experience, specific contractual agreements, and the flight mission for the assignment. This competitive rate reflects the high level of expertise required to operate such a sophisticated aircraft and the premium service expected by passengers. Operating the Gulfstream G500 as a contract pilot not only places you at the helm of one of the finest jets in the industry but also ensures that your skills and expertise are recognized and rewarded appropriately.

Avionics Engineer @ DeHavilland & Avionics Professor in the evenings @ Centennial College. Mental Health Charity Interim Chair @ Home On The Hill. Masters of Neuroscience Student @ King’s College of London
The Cessna 172 is the best selling plane of all time: First flight was way back in 1956 and to this day has sold over 44,000 units making it the most produced aircraft in the world. Latest tech in Avionics is produced by Garmin breathing the Cessna 172 new life by giving it a glass cockpit. Similar to the Twin Otter 300G program (the program I’m currently working on). If you’re ever interested in taking pilot lessons this is most likely the aircraft you’ll be learning on! #aviation #aerospace
