What do PMDG Pilots do in real life?

That's awesome Scott. I love to dive. The rescue diver course is pretty fun and probably the most informative one there is. I would love to do more shark dives. Once a year there are a few Mako sitings in York Maine and soon as they have them, we load up and go diving but so far, no joy :'(
is a video I shot playing with a seal. This is always fun too, but shark'n is pretty great!
Good stuff! He wanted a dacor snack eh? That looks like dry suit water to me. Are you using DUI gear? How do you like it? I was looking at taking the course and diving some of the lakes up here.

Hi Scott, No I don't have any DUI gear. I have a little of a lot of brands. Some Scuba Pro, Dacor, Uwatec etc... The suit I use is a Hendersen Hyper stretch 7mm wet suit. I live in New England and dive from June thru December in it rather comfortably. It's funny because I hate the cold but in December on the boat watch how cold the dry suit divers are compared to how warm I am. Well, in the water atleast. The ocean temps are still upper 50's here in December even though the outside temps may be -0F. I love my wet suit and fits perfect which is of course the key, which reminds me, I need to drop some of my accumulated winter weight and get ready for some diving :(

I am nearly 18 years old, living in London UK, and study at a boarding school 3 hours away. I have recently done a few jobs, e.g Lifeguarding, and general low pay jobs. About to do my A levels. I am still a FS2004 user as I cant afford to buy a new rig. At the moment I use a little Macbook Pro to run FS2004. Once I do my A-levels I may invest in FSX, but now I am broke. I hate to miss out on the PMDG 777 and 737 if they are going to be FSX, so I will get a new rig soon :(

I work for the U.S. government in international disaster relief, i.e., I've been in Haiti a long time. Before that, I was a wildland firefighter. It's a long story how the two are linked.

I'm 42 years old with wife and two kids living on a small island in Finland called Aland. The only aircraft I get to see around here is a SAAB340 so I dream of living under the approach to a rwy at say EHAM or EGLL! I have an MBA which really hasn't taken me that far, but I only have myself to blame. Today I feel like the worlds best paid stamp licker and I work for an ISP. Started flightsimming in the early 1990's but didn't get really involved until the release of Fly! After that I have invested waaay too much money into add-ons that I install and then un-install. As a consequence, no matter how tired or intoxicated I am, I can always tell all the number on my credit card from memory.I am not licensed to fly any aircraft but I hope to get an ultralight license in a couple of years. I am going to Oshkosh again this year so that I'll have something to drool over again...

I'm 22 and a fresh Commercial Single and Multiengine pilot with Instrument privileges. I have about 260 total time with 80 hours in a Piper Aztec and the rest in a C172 (both analog and G1000 equipped). Unfortunately with the economy, no one is hiring. I was supposed to start with TransAir flying Shorts 360's but something happened and they suddenly stopped hiring. This summer I may work on my instructor ratings just to be stay in the air and build more hours.For now, I went back to my old job as an Educational Assistant at Kapolei High School. We're just north of Kalaeloa (PHJR) and under the extended 8L approach for Honolulu (PHNL). During my free time I'm either job hunting, studying (there's always something new in aviation), or just free writing. Just so I don't feel left out amongst the musicians here, I play the French Horn off and on. It's usually just for the Alumi Band at my Alma mater. It beats having to wait ten years for a reunion!

i'm 33, I have an ATPL, and i'm currently first officer on the mighty jumbolino (Avro RJ 85 & 100) .. at the moment 2300+ hours .. not simming that much any more for obvious reasons, but I still enjoy the various PMDG products from time to time :(

Hey. I'm a freshman in High School. I play the violin in my orchestra. I've always wanted to be a pilot since I was like 9 years old. My plan is to get into the Airforce Academy and start my flying career there. Then get out and become an airline, or cargo, pilot. If that plan doesn't come true, my back up plan is to become an ATC. Well, that's about it. Wish me luck :(
