I'd also be interested in that info please.

Probably everyone would.

Hello, Does anyone know if there is a good time/Altitude/Anything else to get cleared through YUL Terminal VFR? I fly Ottawa - Maritimes VFR often and have about a 40% success rate for getting through. This is at maybe 140 KTAS at either 8500 or 9500. Flying north or south isn't the end of the world...

Work full time, train part time

You would never be insured on a Soviet jet though. Again, not true. Marsh's silver wings program covers liability on jets such as the L29 and L39. I'll admit this information is 4 years old, but nothing on their website indicates that this policy would have changed. It's linked to the pilot, not th...

That's just factually wrong. Plenty of IFR flights can still happen during winter time. Take off VMC and land at a southern destination IMC. Flying and aircraft ownership can be expensive, but you don't need to be a millionaire to make it work. Haha, that's true. I should know, I've done it. I've f...

You must be quite unlucky then in your airplane ownership adventure. 150k should buy you a fairly well equipped and used IFR machine. Should indeed. But doesn't. There's more too it. Nobody is out there flying regular IFR with passengers in a 150k airplane. Especially now with that the clouds are f...

I'm a new guy in professional aviation but I am a veteran in amateur GA/Private ownership/"fun flying". I've been involved for many years, know dozens of private pilots and owners. Own a plane myself. Here's a little peek behind that curtain. Without writing a whole novel I'll say this. Unless you ...

Another vote against that pathway thing. I'm 43 and making the switch. Though, I already had my ppl and night rating when i decided to go for it. I own my own plane too. If you can swing it, buy and airplane and do your training in that. You can even sell the plane when you're done. Waiting on airpl...

This was my thought also. Maybe not finished, but will set it back a generation probably.

Just for fun, Can you point out downwind departure in any TC docs?

It's not even my birthday. What a treat

Key point :

“ANY TRAFFIC IN THE AREA, PLEASE ADVISE” are not recognized phraseology and should not be used. Any traffic that is present at the time of a report should reply without being prompted to do so.

Is there a date for the November GS yet? Do you mean November 2025? They’ve basically stopped hiring due to a lack of Captains. Hired hundreds of CPL flight instructors over the past 2 years but they can’t upgrade. The DEC thing was covered in the previous post. Not enough $$$ to attract actual exp...

Claude Roy is a well known Challenger guy in Canada. He is responsible for having the legislation created that allows crossing the US border in UL (legend has it anyway). He has flow his C2 from coast to coast and is an UL instructor as well.

I know one guy in the Nov GS. He's has 1800 hours instructing and just wrote his ATPL exams.

Short answer: No. Slightly longer awnser: if you get hired on a Navajo, the company will train you on how to operate their Navajo. 10 hours of Navajo time, is a SINGLE busy day operating commercially. It won't make a difference in the hiring process of any reputable operator. If I was hiring, I wou...

There is a school near me that offers multi-IFR training in a Chieftain. It's nearly double the cost per hour as the Aztec that's also nearby at another school. 500 vs 1000/ hour. As a new guy that will be looking for my first job soon, is the handful of Navajo hours worth the added cost as far as j...

I had a similar problem and managed to fix it. I installed a full glass panel from scratch in my Vans RV last year. The SINGLE issue I had with it after turning it all on for the first time was a wildly fluctuating fuel pressure. The connection from the fuel pressure sensor to the EFIS wasn't perfec...

What do you think

No idea

I’ve tried sending dm’s on avcanada but for some reason they get stuck in the outbox. Fuel, grooming, flt planning isn’t an issue. Catering stuff would take a couple trips to get a hang on the owner’s needs, suppliers and how best to arrange it in time for flights. Ideally based in southern Ont, bu...

Congrats! I'm also a late bloomer :) For me, I set my sights on company that isn't a 'destination' company for youngsters. 25 year old guys with more seniority then you and no intention to leave means you may never get a 'senior' schedule. Regionals (or corporate) offer better opportunities for bett...
