Touche....

Hello

Just going on the 767. I know lots of ppl have made jepp binder holders that sit up by the window. anyone have any templates of theirs, or ideas that have worked well (or havn't worked well for that matter)?

Thanks

I didn't notice if anyone corrected earlier, but its not just Pilots that have lost passes. Its ALL AC employees. This is from a friend that just started there. Apparently it comes from other employee groups getting hired, jetting off to Austrailia (amongst other places I'm sure) and then quitting. ...

CYIV-CYST is 5nm. It is uncontrolled-ish (its a MF), but in uncontrolled airspace. That usually involvs the approach being loaded into the GPS and a full briefing given prior to departure. Its a quick one. As for the YVR to YYJ, even on an IFR day, there still time to take a breath. Its not as busy ...

[quote="CID"]We need to compare apples to apples here and I think to do that we need to zone in on the players. Bearskin Metro interiors are basic but decent.

With the account of the passanger above, saying that they were in the air for well over the 1 hour maximum for single engine, keep in mind that a fully loaded 767 hoping the pond is going to be WAY over a max landing weight. When you assume its going to be a 6 (rough guess here) hour flight, and are...

It was a flight of 7 military aircraft. 1 tanker and 6 fighters I believe. They were blocked from FL240-FL260.

Anyone know anything about the United 777 sitting on the ramp in Winnipeg? Mechanical, medical emerg?

Well played fine Sir. Any chance I could print and post that in the crewroom? I think it would get a bunch of laughs from everyone.

Only had 1 thus far. I was the First Officer on the flight. On takeoff out of a BEAUTIFUL northern manitoba destination (I'm sure that doesn't narrow it down, as they are all Beautiful), the oil pressure light came on somewhere north of 90kts. I looked down to see the gauge bounce off the bottom sto...

Not sure if this has been posted or not, but wasn't gonna go through 10 pages check...

Don't sound like either pilot in the 777 was overly impressed. I doubt it would have been an RA. Probably a TA. I don't think the small A/C would have the required transponder to activate an RA. Still not a fun situation. If theres anyway to find out what was said on the "discrete" frequency, please...

I don't think taking a job with low pay is irrisponsible. Its the choices made once you have that job. I work for a major airline, based in Calgary, and live elsewhere and have to commute (for now), and I do it responsibly. If I go on reserve at 3am, I am in Calgary and have had my rest when 3am com...

Commuted into Calgary this evening and taxiing past Apron 2 (the cargo/deice apron), there were about 6 fire trucks a few airport vehicles and a De Ice truck on its side leaking deice fluid all over the ramp. Anyone have any info on what happened there?

Just heard a young pilot in Thompson was killed driving into work this morning.

All the best to his family and friends back home, as well as his friends in Thompson.

My thoughts are with everyone.

Hang in there, and take care.

[quote="."]So I've noticed over the past while your Dash's are flying at 9000 ft from YEG-YYC. I know its a short hop but what is that doing to your fuel burns down there, anyone know the reasoning and such?[/quote] The flight dispatchers plug the route into the computers, and it looks at all the va...

[quote]In fact the approach to this runway brings you into the 07 the up hill approach[/quote] Infact, the approach does brings you in for 07, correct, but thats the downhill direction that slopes down at 1.56%. Which was the direction of landing. I was talking to another NAC pilot about what had ha...

Back when I was flying out of Thompson, there was a particular company flying single engine turbines that had repeatedly told ppl that they had better moving maps than us, and that because of that they had lower minimums than we did. They also had no clue what 126.7 was used for when in uncontrolled...

Back when I did my training (rec, and private) at ZBB, the flying club had the "area clear behind" on the runup checklist... So if it was the company I trained at, it would appear that ppl aren't reading the checklist.

Excellent work boys!! Welcome to the club!

I know in the past, if you were training at Pro IFR, they had accomidations to rent for the out-of-towners while flying. Not sure if they still offer that tho. Might need to make a call to confirm.

Cpt S&J,

I didn't recongnise you. Its been a while. I see you've grown a mustache, and gotten even better at the Banjo. HAHA j/k

[quote="DHC3Rwannafly"]I wouldn't really call it an emergency landing....more of a diversion due to low oil. Did the engine fall off? Did the gear fail? Did they have an engine out landing? Who cares.......[/quote] Exactly. Who cares. I was holding short when they landed. Looked the same as every ot...

This airport that has 3 lights out, wouldn't be a particular northern Manitoba runway would it?
