You're going to make that statement about a company based on what they say in Zimbabwe.

Re: Sudbury to shut down tower and become FSS...WTF

Hedley, I'm not sure I said I ever ignored an FSS suggestion, even when the FSS wanted me to turn towards a large piece of cumulus granite despite the suggestion made. Simply turning in the correct direction and advising FSS was all that was required. I don't see how one could ever get violated for ...

JPC, I love how you think we pilots are idiots and seem to want to crash into each other. Nice to see that's the view of ATC. I can only speak for myself, but I appreciate suggestions made by FSS, and I know that they are only suggestions and not ATC clearances or directives. I have, on a couple occ...

Doc, I'm just going to assume that our experiences in this type of flying differ a little. You're making a few generalizations that I haven't really come across. But different locations, different experiences. I have seen a couple of pretty questionable medevacs, as I alluded to earlier, but obvious...

Had a few of those too Doc. And I agree it's often abused. But it's the doctor's call to medevac them, not mine. And unless I hear otherwise, I treat them all the same. In Alberta we're not even supposed to know anything at all about the patient, let alone their medical status. Cheers Edited cause w...

As pilots, we are neither doctors, nurses or paramedics. I for one am not going to judge a patient's condition based on what I see when they are getting on the plane.

Never had to file Medevac without a patient, can't really see that in being necessary in Alberta. When we do have a patient we almost always file medevac status and if ATC asks we're always a priority! Bottom line: it all comes down to the word of the week boys and girls: "A" is for airmanship :!:
