Always

I always carry paper charts plus my own GPS, hand bearing compass and chronograph. After being in the delivery business 17 of my 30 years, I have ammassed quite an impressive library of charts and publications at home. However, to get to New York, leave Port Everglades, turn left at the PE bouy and keep land on your left (port). Eventually you will reach New York.

You are correct about soloing before getting your pilots license. Only aicraft that weight 12,500 pounds or more, or if in the ops spec issued by the FAA, then two pilots are required up front. All of the jets I fly are 12.5<. Citation X is the fast thing in the air today, next to military that is. However, 6 miles a minute @ 41,000 is just fine with me.
