Re: Flight Instructing w/o MIFR

I know where you are coming from, having your summers off would be a great opportunity to get some paid flying. The problem is that you need to find a FTU that will hire you part time and I know that the FTU where you are presently training does not like to hire part timers. You might want to consid...

Re: Blue Spruce Route?

This manual might whet your appetite. I have flown the route Goose Bay - Narsassuaq - Reykavik - Glasgow a couple of times in a SE aircraft. The only time to fly thos route instead of the azores is from May to September due to weather. http://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/media/NAT%20IGA%2020...

Joe Thompson, there's a name from the past. I first met Joe when he was at Sault College and our paths crossed a few times over the years. The last I heard of Joe he was at Seneca College but this information may be out of date. A first class guy in my opinion.

Re: Need clarification on these answers from a test prep

I suspect that there is a typo in the question for #3. I think that the temperature should be minus 20. This would make more sense at 10,000 feet as well. This does give an answer of 180 kts.

Re: Instructor and night currency for instructing question

This question has been raised before and by definition the person receiving the night training can only be considered a passenger or a crew member. According to Transport Canada they are a passenger so an instructor cannot teach night flying until they have regained their night currency.
