The Flight Deck / general flight questions regarding jets
« on: February 24, 2011, 11:57:56 PM »
Yes obviously I'm a "boot" as we title rookies on the fire dept!.
I'm in 2 flight schools here on VATSIM, 1 is in VATCAN, the other is at ZLA pilot school and I'm also in the midsts of the FS-X flight school 2011 edition and I can't find what I'm looking for. Can someone please help?
1) whats the max speed of a JET below 10,000 ft (US guidelines please)
2) A holding pattern in the US is commonly called "lline up and wait"-and the ATC calls this when it's peak load times-is this correct?
3)US flight levels start for VFR is 500 AGL?, IFR is 1,000 without worry of the terrain, and IFR is 2,000 AGL if flying in the mountains-is this correct or am I way off in left field here.

I just began this volunteer training (some of it-jets are new to me though) and I'm learning my way around VATSIM- so please foregive my ignorance...
