So are you guys hiring?

Thanks for that helpful reply! Lol.

Anybody know if Fort Frances Air is still operating?
Google doesn't tell you which companies hire lowtime guys unfortunately. Just thought somebody on here would have a little knowledge.

Thanks

Just wondering how the employment market is around the Fort Frances area. Any of the float operators take on fresh commercial pilots? Is Fort Frances Air still operating? Thanks.

As it stands right now, you can upgrade your Group 3 to a Group 1 with a simple IFR renewal ride in an approved FTD. A number of flight schools are now doing this. That being said, the regulator could put a policy statement out to change that at any time. I am assuming that you would need your mult...

Did you end up upgrading in a FTD or did you have to use an airplane?

Lock the thread, perfect responses.

Is the gear up photo for FVJC new or old?

They are also the only school in Canada which owns their own airport.

Harv's Air also owns their airport.

Is he gone? Good. Now, all you hungry pilots (and rampies, maintenance people, etc.), here is how we can score some free Timmy Ho's grub. Do a quick search on this forum for the company name that bought Walsten awhile back and search that name in the TC registration database. Write down all the Bee...

We've always got Tim's on board. Wander over and say, Hi.

Thank you very much. They were appreciated.

The above sounds correct with the exception of the US medical. My foreign license validation is in process right now with my Canadian Medical. If you wish to do a conversion (stand alone FAA) instead of a validation then you need a medical. Sounds right, I was going for the FAA Commercial so I went...

Last time I checked you only need to register with the TSA for Private, Instrument, and Initial Multi training. As Canadians we don't need a Visa to enter the states unlike some countries where you need a Visa just to visit. As for renting a plane, you can get a FAA Private based on your TCCA Licenc...

I have concerns converting the FAA private licence to a canadian private licence, but TC seems to say only a written exam will be needed to convert. Has anyone been this route ? I'm in quebec, so anything close to me would be preferable if you know any. Thanks Converting is not hard at all. One exa...

Most likely OMNR bringing ground crews home.

Position has already been filled.

I thought this was going to be a thread with pictures of the Blue Bombers cheerleaders.

I just did my rating with a fellow by the name of Randy Hanna through the Floatplane Academy. Here's the website: http://www.seaplaneacademy.ca/index.htm. He does the training out of Quenelle Lake just outside of Nanaimo on Vancouver Island. I did the 7 hour course with him and learned way more in ...

Get your instructor rating and instruct part time while finishing your degree.

Details and a couple of pictures.

Didn't they recently write it off trying to get it off the ramp into the water?

Anybody else get an invite to the spring groundschool for an entry level position?

This route will give you a stand alone FAA PPL. If you do not want to write the simple conversion exam, you get an FAA PPL based on your Canadian PPL. Do I dare ask what the difference is? I was researching this a few months ago because of a family trip to Hawaii. I wanted to be able to rent an ame...
