Here is a CBC report on the issue. It talks about what kind of laser's are being used. Sorry it did not mention if it was Air Canada or Westjet pilot's that were causing the problem, or shooting the laser's Real Media: http://www.cbc.ca/clips/rm-hi/wood-laser-081112.rm Quicktime: http://www.cbc.ca/c...

May be a dumb question, but can a 35 dump fuel?

I think a swallow remains a bird at any altitude...

I'm sorry, but did I miss something? Widow why did you put up the exact same information as 100LL has?

endless while this is a sensitive issue for some. I would expect better from you. Name-calling and sarcasm is the last way to get your point across. After reading your retort you offer some valuable points, but null it by your opening remarks.

Yea i've seen fog happen quite often. Same with YXD being VFR while YEG is down to mins in fog. I havn't seen it happen with snow very often though. And now after it was cleared up for several hours it's a blizzard outside again! I love Alberta! Ironic you should say that. Canadian North landed one...

This is not good news at all! If people have not been reading that is a sensitive elk crossing area. Those 6 sq. km of land will have devastating effects for a very long time. I mean how will the elks only get by with only 10,878 sq. km of park space left? Sorry let me correct that only 10,872 sq. k...

So does anyone know if they are building a parallel runway or are they going with x-crossing type?

Global Aircraft Solutions Announces the Sale of a 737-200 to Canadian North TUCSON, AZ, February 26/2008 MARKET WIRE Global Aircraft Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: GACF) today announced that it has sold one 737-200 aircraft (SN 23074) to Canadian North for $2.8 million plus additional MRO services which ar...

That does not make any sense. Why would you sell that property if you wanted to close it? You would want to own all the properties so there would be little opposition. It would only add to the fight against the ERAA to try and suggest to close YXD by selling it to other parties. The ERAA has no auth...

Have any of you actually been to YEG nowadays? The apron is very full after 2200. Something like 25- 30 AC overnighting. AC does a non- stop to London, with Transat right behind them. There are seasonal AC and Westjet flights to the Carribean / Cuba all winter. If the short sighted, " lets keep the...

Wow TAT you must know everything about the north. Dumb ol' Canadian North should call you before they do anything. Why don't you e-mail them and let them know, or maybe you may want to research a topic before making a uninformed statement.

Aww TAT did I hit a soft spot. and was that ruling on CITT legality in the matter or the awarding of the contract.

It seems Canada Post wasn't being fair when it awarded it's contract to First Air. Now it's been caught and told to pay or do it again. Ottawa, Ontario, February 6, 2007 - The Canadian International Trade Tribunal issued a determination following its inquiry into a complaint by Canadian North Inc. (...

Was told yesterday that Canadian is looking for another 737-200 as of right now, and that they are still planning to introduce a 737-300 as of May or June. It sounds like they are required for their charter side. It looked as the charter side has gotten very busy as of late. Haven't had confirmation...

This is a question to you Mustang enthusiast. Do you know if any 1968 models had a 427 cid 4v V-8. I know it was the only year it was available. I have searched for on the net, but can't find if any were delivered from the factory as such. Just wondering if anybody knows? Thanks

I saw 5T's F-100 the other day in YYC. Do they have just the one or are the others. I guess it is operational since it was at the terminal. Nice looking paint job. Has anybody been on it yet? It was sure a lot quieter then the F-28. Is 5T still flying the F-28 or is it done? I ask because it was sti...

Hi Brew I have been flying 705 airline for a while. It is enjoyable and a lot easier on the system then charter or rig pig flying, but always remember first, and foremost it’s a job. People seem to forget that while there is nothing wrong with enjoying what your doing don't be in a rush to get to th...

Sorry Trevor I don't know what is up your butt! I will make it clear as I guess you did not understand. 1) "dweebs from TC," this was in reference to Transport Canada's continuous delay of getting an approval for the HUD 2) "world's most expensive sunvisor," this is what a few pilots at Westjet refe...

Hey Trevor just a bit off topic but have the dweebs from TC approved your world's most expensive sunvisor yet? or are they still trying to re-invent the wheel

So who would buy the simulator... Canadian North, First Air or maybe Canjet?

No not in the near future. Because of "expected" rapid growth the need for quick upgrades requires pilots to be of a fairly high experience level.
