Looks like according to their webpage, flight crews are JAR licence holders only. Anybody know any different?

I spent a couple summers dropping jumpers while i payed at least most of my bills by instructing during the week. Very different experiences and requirements, but i really feel like they are very complimentary for somebody who's building new skill sets. Allow your instrucing background to make you a...

Does anybody know of a reference or location where i can get a hold of the edmonton centre high level sectors? I seem to recall seeing a colour coded chart that broke down the airspace and the associated radio frequencies, any idea where i can find it or something similar? Thanks.

but the real question is whether anybody got theirs in "cloud pink"?

From what i hear it was quite the show watching it take off from CYXD the other day, rotated somewhere around the numbers 12... taking off on runway 30

I have seen many many guys that instructed to ~600-1000 hrs and then just said screw it and joined the fresh 200 hr guys on the ramps and docks, essentially starting from the beginning again. BS. I hate this mentality. There is no beginning and really not even an end. You don't instruct for a 1000 ...

the word i've heard was that it was their cub.

low n over Thanks for providing some useful insight. I've always been impressed with Airborne's operation. Passed through there a couple times, friendly people and a nice set up. Talked with JV once, and he seemed like a quality boss. Just wondering, is there normally much low time fixed wing hirin...

Don't forget to rev your sweet ride to 6000rpm if a cop even thinks about hassling you, and make sure you have a neon licence plate holder turned on too. Now where's my mullet smiley... http://www.racebuds.com/images/mullet2.gif rock on! http://www.streetneeds.com/solidpantz/iroc.mp3 (about 30 mintu...

Don't confuse "Chevrons" with "Displaced Runway Arrows" . AIP AGA 3.0 will answer your question. A displaced threshold is common at airports with natural or man made obstacles that enter the approach or departure paths. This is marked by the "Displaced Runway Arrows", which is perfectly acceptable t...

Doc and KAG give some good advice. From my experience, a course is a must. I can't tell you how much more comfortable I was my first season after my course compared to before. And as was said, buy good gear. Not only will they cover your learning mistakes, but they will make your riding ten times mo...

It definitely has that Canadian feel to it. In my area you seem to have a better chance of catching the show in the middle of the night. Usually programmed between other public access shows, ranging from special yoga positions to some emergency hamster operation. But I like watching it when I can fi...

Isn't it just as possible that they have a unfriendly version of acrobat (what other programs display/print .pdf) as having a different version of word? It seems to me that word is faster and a little more common than acrobat, especially if the computer i'm sending to is as slow as the computers we ...

Just reading "Shake Hands with the Devil" now, i'd recommend it for anybody that is interested in Romeo Dallaire's full story. The movie by the same name, which has been playing in independent theatres is worth a watch too if you can find it.

North Wright and this hiring requirement have been discussed previously on here... but maybe it's been lost since the hacks. From what i know, NWA is a fair company, that gives a number of low-timers (with diplomas i guess), a hard-working first job with the chance to work on turbine equipment. floa...

I watched that as well. Good to see that it's getting some attention. It was the top story of the evening on the National

Unfortunately the segment ended with reports that TC has "intentions" to set up an appeal process. That doesn’t seem to be the most reassuring solution.

I was under the impression that the online version was a temporary sevice. The new "AIM" will be a 8.5 x 11'' publication, bound like the CFS i've heard.

I heard they took out a couple lights and signs today. Don't know any other details other than YYC was down to one active runway for a while.

Those engines are massive. Compare the guy standing next to engine #2 of the A380 to the people standing in these pictures.

I agree, 400.01 only outlines what "instrument time" means, and not what "actual instrument flight time" means. But it would make sense that with all three methods of instrument time would involve flying while relying on the instruments as the only attitude reference. Whether it be in a sim, with a ...

Ok, i think i need to summarize to make sure i'm not missing something. This is the way i do it, and assumed was ok. For the purposes of an ATPL (75 hours instrument, max 25 sim), i don't believe you can count anytime you filled IFR towards that. I do log my IFR time for my own purposes under a sepe...
