Re: Slowdown
Wacko, With all respect your presummption about fuel consumption for the "invasion" is bizarre. A few hundred thousand troops mostly being transported, not individual consumers are not a factor. What will be a factor is the instability that will ensue if and hopefully when the US pulls out. Expect o...

Re: Slowdown

Re: Beaver incident in Nanaimo?
I'm sorry as I realize I'm a little off topic, but is Harbour Air any better or for that matter was Baxter. Also do you think WCA will change?

Re: Southwest Caravan Drivers
Turns out that the Navajo Pilots hired aren't going to fly anytime soon, it was just a scam to get much needed rampies. They were supposed to split their time between flying and ramp, but there's been no flying and none in the near future. Sunwest Sucks
