    Subject: 135 Checkride
    --> Commander-List message posted by: "Kelly Piper" <kellyp@air-matrix.com> Just a quick word of thanks to all - My 135 check-ride went very well thanks to all of the great feedback from you all. Just a note, the approach speed subject became a non issue when I pasted a company supplemental statement in the flight manual pertaining to various speeds and power settings to be used in our part 135 operations. It appears that the FAA is fine with using standard (or preferred) power settings or airspeeds that may differ from those in the old (1955 in our case) flight manual as long as they are within a safe envelope and you have them available to all pilot's as a standard operational procedure. As for the zero thrust simulated engine out - same thing - 13" and 2400 rpm worked well for the examiner as well as the engines themselves. At no time did he want or ask to push those limits or actually shutdown an engine. Giving blood for the sake of a proficiency check was not necessary. Thanks again! Kelly Piper AirMatrix

    Subject: All New Matronics Email List Online Chat!!!
    --> Commander-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> Hi Listers! A number of Listers have been asking for some Matronics Email List online chat and NOW ITS HERE! Over the last couple of days I've set up a nifty web-based Chat site here on the Matronics systems. No special programs to download; all you need is a late model web browser like Internet Explorer or Netscape with a java plugin. I would recommend downloading the latest Java plugin if you experience any problems getting the page to come up. Here's a link to the Sun Java download website. http://java.com/en/index.jsp Look for the green box with the yellow arrow in the upper right corner. Before you bother, though, just try you browser because it'll probably just work. Each Email List on Matronics has its own "Room" and all rooms can easily be accessed from the same client. In the Email List URL Trailer at the bottom of each List message, you'll find the Link to this List's specific Chat Room. Just click on the Link, and then type in your name or email address in the User Name box. Try to use a name or email address that the other Listers know you by. You'll find me lurking around the various List chat rooms as "MattDralle". There's a couple of nifty features I'll explain right off. On the main Chat Window page after you login, you'll see a little icon with a Hammer and a Screwdriver. This is the Control Panel window. Once the Control Panel comes up, click on the "Settings" tab. Here you'll find, among other things, three check boxes to enable sound. Click all three and you'll be treated to a sound whenever someone enters or leaves the Room, or when someone sends a message. The other cool button is the one that has four little arrows pointing to each of the four corners of the button. This will rip the main Chat window from the web page and allow you to resize and move it anyway you'd like. Let's have some fun and get to know one another better using this awesome new Chat Room! To get started, just click the URL Link below for this List's specific Chat Room! Best regards, Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Admin PS - I'm working on a web link interface to the chat logfiles. Coming soon...
