Lachute Aviation has a Twin Comanche for 245$/hr + instructor. Not very far from Cornwall.

Pour ma part je suis plutôt partiel à l'égard de Lachute aussi. PM moi si tu veux plus d'info.

OK, I have no idea where you get this information from, but it is simply not true. TC in the Quebec region DOES NOT require that you land at another airport for you to log XC time. It is simply bullshit. As has been stated previously, there is no definition in the CARs of what cross-country time is....

Salut Rudder Bug!

Je suis passé par La Macaza il y a quelques jours et je crois avoir vu ton Tri-Pacer emmitouflé dans sa couverture de nez, stationné sur le banc de sable près de l'école. Très belle machine et toutes mes félicitations pour ton acquisition!

Actually I just realized my argument had already been made in the other thread so... disregard. Nonetheless, coming back to your argument about being able to prove recency, paragraph 2 of 401.08 does state IMO that each flight counting towards said requency has to be logged in a personal log book. S...

Hey Cat, First let me say that I usually read your post with a lot of interest, seeing as you have proved to be someone with a considerable capacity for critical thinking, which is something I have a lot of respect for. That being said, I must admit I myself was under the impression that it was a re...

Hey Diver Driver, quite a thread you got started here. First of all, let me start by saying I think it's great you got everybody together to discuss the issue of pilot compensation at your DZ. And also that you decided to share the results of this discussion with you fellow avcanadians. Ultimately, ...

Hi Tee,

Are you still looking to sell your 295?

PM me if you are.

Also, to help fund my trip, I've got to part with some of my "shinny stuff". so If anyone wants a almost new Garmin 495 or Icon IC-A6 transceiver they're for sale.(pics to follow later today.) Spinjob Is that "shinny stuff" still for sale? How much are you looking for them? You can PM me about 'em.

I am involved in a business of the sort, with some very competent people. We also offer LMS hosting services.

I don't develop the courses myself being that I am relatively new to the world of aviation but I might very well be able to help you out.

PM me for more info.

That does sound verrry tempting swordfish. Much better than Barrie or Collingwood.

You seem to talk from experience. Are you currently employed in Sweden? How did you end up there?

it isn't exactly easy due to the number of PIC cross country hours you also need (can't remember the number off hand, I think its like 40 or 50) and the fact you can't double dip any of your IFR hours as cross country. The experience requirement for the IFR rating is 50 hours PIC X-Country. Althoug...

I also think your instructor is wrong. I myself have recently completed my PPL (late November) and followed on with the night rating within my CPL (got a new PTR for this purpose). Having completed night, I've started IFR and will then proceed with Multi WITHIN my CPL. I was not aware of the instruc...

Hey dude. I have no definite answer but I can tell you that I've been wondering about the very same thing. I'll attempt an answer nonetheless: I bet it's just the same as any other type of employment, and you need a work visa, and therefore you probably need to be sponsored by an employer who has de...

Fiberlys,

Pour ce qui est de l'IFR, si ça peux t'intéresser, je crois qu'il y a un ground school IFR qui démarre le 14 janvier. Tu peux appeler à Lachute pour avoir plus de détails. Ils ont un sim flambant neuf aussi pour la formation IFR.

Moi j'encourage vivement les gens à considérer Lachute Aviation à... eh oui, Lachute. L'école est cool, bonne ambiance et ils ont le multimoteurs le mois cher de toute la région à 245$/h si je ne me trompes pas. En plus à 10NM de CYMX où on peut pratiquer les approches aux instruments de toutes sort...

Hey Sandy! Way to revive an old thread! As you might have noticed from the previous threads, there a quite a few Flight Training Units in the vicinity of Montreal. Concordia and McGill are both great universities. I myself studied at University of Montreal (French-speaking) but tons of my friends we...

Read it too myself. I'm starting IFR groundschool in 2 weeks. It kinda gave me, as he puts it, "the willies"... Looking forward to it though!

Anybody has an idea as to whether or not personnel licensing recognition might come to be harmonized as it has been with the US?

C'est pour ça que ton pseudonyme est si en français Hawkerdriver? Quant à faire la morale aux autres, tu devrais commencer pas surveiller ton langage.

C'est un place super Lachute. Effectivement, du parking du twin à la marque d'attente à l'écart de la piste (qui fait 4000') il doit y avoir 300' à parcourir. En plus si tu décolles de la piste 10, tu doit te dépêcher de virer sinon tu entres dans la zone de Mirabel! Super équipe aussi, qui n'est pa...

Pour ceux qui feraient encore un suivi sur ce sujet de discussion. Le CADORS relatif à cet accident a été publié. Le rapport a été classé sous le numéro 2008Q2453. Voici l'exposé des faits contenus dans le rapport: "Un planeur, de la Ligue des Cadets de l'Air, s'est écrasé dans un fossé en bordure d...

Voilà une information très utile! Merci pour le tuyau, je vérifierai lundi!

Tu n'aurais pas une idée du délai moyen entre un évènement et sa diffusion sur le CADORS? (disons pour un évènement qui se produit une journée ouvrable)
