VERTICAL REF Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 None. i dont understand your question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skids Up Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 We do our training and PPC from the left. I do know that flying from the left leaves a huge blind side on the right.Doesn't being on the right leave a big blind spot on the left??? Does for me... ...so there is an extra set of eyes - if you can trust them. Careful of the eyes you trust, Bleedair found that out in Ontario, and probably won't do that again. :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartan Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Vert Ref: What I was getting at was your coment"apply to TC for your approval - it is quite simple. the fms is only one page." It is not quite that easy it takes the STC holder request to change their STC not the operator. What I,m not sure of can a STC be done to another STC? I found where this thought came from ,in the text is say's something about changing the STC:http://www.airweb.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgSTC.nsf/0/00698B2E22339BAF86256D8A00582245?OpenDocument Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helilog56 Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 So what do i read out of this thread? Are companies out there putting non flight crew into the front seat(s) with the flight controls in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bullet Remington Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Spartan: You can find out what specific STC's and whether or not an FAA STC is applicable to a CDN registered machine, from TC's website. There are also other methods to get permission./approval from TC such as submitting a Limited STC to Transport. Not trying to be condescending here, just pointing out an observation. I'm not a big fan of Bell's, at least not from a bush engineer's stand point, Now as a Structural guy, I love them !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VERTICAL REF Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 your not changing or modifying any ones stc. you are applying for a TC stc so you can sit in the left seat as pic in contrast to the normal operations section of the flight manual. bubble door or no bubble door - who cares! i have succesfully applied for a couple TC stc's and it is actually quite simple. if you would like help with it just let me know. and yes helog56 - done all the time. every medium in canada that moves seismic drills or flys fires. is quite safe with the proper briefing.

spartan Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Thanks all I found the TC site that lists STC's and LSTC and there are quite a few to choose from. It does seem a little stange that none of them are from Bell ,Don't they want to have their a/c used for this type of work? What about the new 210 will it be L/h seat from Bell?

Plinko Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Doesn't being on the right leave a big blind spot on the left??? Does for me... Careful of the eyes you trust, Bleedair found that out in Ontario, and probably won't do that again. :shock: So you are saying that there is no blind spot on the right, when you are in the left seat?? Come on...what is the point here.. It does not matter what seat you are in there will always be a blind spot! That is why you fly in a manner that lets you see the hazards before you land. It is amazing to me how people on here love to argue stupid points! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helicopterjim Posted December 18, 2005 Report Share Posted December 18, 2005 It is amazing to me how people on here love to argue stupid points! Careful! You may resemble that remark. It does not matter what seat you are in there will always be a blind spot! That is why you fly in a manner that lets you see the hazards before you land. Your second paragraph is absolutely spot on!

Come on...what is the point here.. The point I didn't make very well is that there is always a blind spot on the opposite side of where you are sitting...
