Do I wish? I already do! I get spotify direct to my phone and connect to Bluetooth to my aviation headset, so I can fly and jam out to Gambino at the same time!

Of course! so long as we can still hear ATC clearly, there's no regulation for listening to music :D
Most headsets come with Bluetooth capability, and auto-reduce the volume of the input when ATC talks

No (I hope), but a safety report had to be filed with the FAA, it was a mistake on the controllers part for thinking that we were already on the ground, but in reality we were still about 1 mile away!

I speed frequently (no tickets though), but my automotive record in terms of accidents is totally clean :)

Excellent question. I am currently watching episodes of "Disney's Abandoned" on YouTube and checking my ranarr crops on OSRS :D

Have you flown around the globe to disprove the "earth is flat" theory??
MrCudou8 karma
Theory? Excuse me sir but that "theory" is supported by hard fact science based evidence!
(But really though) No, I don't have to constantly push the nose down to "correct" for the Earth's curve. Yes, you can in fact see the curve of the earth at high latitudes, and yes I have flown around the globe on several occasions!

Haha!
I've never really thought about planes having to nose down to keep "parallel" with the earth!
Wish you all the best for your career!

Oh yes! That is actually part 4 of our training at Tinfoil-Hat Air Lines ;)

Did you forget to put a small roundish square icon next to your posting and did they mods forget to Mark your AMA"LIVE"?

How much do they pay you to release HAARP chemical agents in the sky?
No, but seriously, is it true that people living under flightpaths shoot at planes? I remember hearing that somewhere but I don't remember where or whether it was reliable.

Unfortunately we HAve A swoRn duty not to mention anything about suPposed leaKed "chemIcaL agents" so i am not sure what exactLy it iS you are referring to...
As for being shot at, the only thing I can relate with that is getting shot at by annoyed citizens with laser pointers :P

Do you wish you could listen to XM Sirius satellite radio while piloting?
