Thanks Cat ! I earned my commercial pilot Licence to make FLYING airplanes my profession. I worked two jobs to be able to afford it,studied and went up flying 2 or 3 times a week to become a PILOT... I don't get this industry's mentality of someone having to work slave labour jobs in harsh condition...

Re: Ferrying light singles jobs ?

Thanks for your reply North Shore, I recognize the fact that companies specialized in ferrying airplanes would probably require a little more than 250 hours, but what job and company doesn't it ? Still some pilots do manage to get jobs with lower times than mine.. I have been trying getting a single...

Re: 5 years in Canada to work ground crew?

And what happens if you were outside Canada for a couple of weeks, a couple of times vacationing in the last 5 years ?? Will they try to check with these countries or deny your RP because you went on a vacation over seas?? I mean who does not leave the country a few times every few years ?!!!

Hi there, Getting ready for the CPL ride but those ShortField landings are getting frustrating. The 172 seems to want to float forever and ever!!!

Re: What's going on at CYFD?

They will stay grounded until Wednesday 'at least'! I'm very disappointed as well, they seemed To be running a very safe and smooth operation. I wonder what's Transports problem with them ?!

I really hope they get back up and running very soon, it was frustrating enough to move PenAir !
