Appreciate the input!

I bet you have and with that kind of mindset, I’ve no doubt that you’ll find a fixed wing gig pretty soon if that’s what you really want.

Yes it does, with x amount of commitment (bond) if successful. Except unlike Canada, you get to fly a 320 or 737 for a proper airine, and get to upgrade to left seat once you unfreeze your ATPL (no need to bomb in a C150 doing circuits to build your PIC to be "worthy") Entitled much? How’s that CPL...

Go have a look at various MPL/cadet programs available in Europe at different airlines. Some only require the bare minimum of high school Are those pograms leading to a guaranteed job, or are they an extra revenue source for said airlines? Yes it does, with x amount of commitment (bond) if successf...

What goes up, must come down…

You have no fuckin clue what you are talking about. Have you been in the military? Have you dealt with them at least? Overhead breaks, formation flying, low approaches, PARs, circuits, etc etc, all fitted in, most at the same time. NAV Canada controllers barely hold a candle to their training. With...

^ Same same.

You mean like the HR department that once deemed you to be a good fit?

Digits, YQB is a strange strange place. I flew out of there for a couple of years. Not that long ago really. What really pissed me off was canceling the IFR and still being expected to fly the STAR even though they weren’t sequencing any other traffic! No rhyme or reason what so ever. A new friend ...

Entb, You’ve brought some great points to the discussion. In my experience it’s always preferable to start any seaplane at the dock if able. Since you mentioned a thread drift…. The 208 will produce almost 40 ft-pounds of thrust from the right side exhaust. No bueno when docked on the left float and...

Owned a 57’ 180A operated on 2870’s for over a decade.

Helped give a buddy of mine his float rating on his 180 which was kitted out on almost brand new PK 3000’s last summer.

I was immediately sold. Flat tops, big hatches and very very forgiving…. but yikes! They are expensive.

All the best,

Not sure if something gave way or if it was a poorly tied rope. It's a PT-6'd Turbo Otter, why anyone would start it out of BETA or feather is beyond me... for this exact f'ing reason. There's also reverse, for situations in which you've begun moving forward when you don't want to be, but I suspect...

How altruistic of you. A simpleminded comment indeed. TPC I think the poster was simply pointing to the fact airlines are federally regulated with federal labour laws, not sure if an Ontario specific labour law would apply. He finally has some time to come out of his cave, let him run free for a wh...

Likely wouldn’t apply to AC is they are governed by Federal law and are technically a YUL corporation.

How altruistic of you. A simpleminded comment indeed.

To the OP:

Welcome to the Wild West of the 702 world.

You’re not wrong in your decision making process and I for one commend you for reaching out to seek advice.

TPC

Are you a doctor? No? Does the individual hold a medical? Yes? Has the individual demonstrated proficiency? Holds a valid rating/ppc/current on type etc? And is doing their job? Yes? Then it's none of your business. In fact it's harassment going after someone like that. Kick rocks. Yup. And anyone ...

I don’t understand how amphibian aircraft operators even forget in which state their gear configuration is in.

Never a dull moment in YVR!

Love the roll out plan and out of sheer interest of continuously learning, will probably send a DM.

With that said, and I mean no offence but can you perhaps announce yourself publicly prior to? Should your initials not be KD then disregard.

The Air Bravo had disproportionate amount of engine failure compared to global PC-12 operators. It is management that sets the tone for how the engine is taken care of. Whoever is the Chief Pilot were they also hard on the aircraft engine? If you have a single engine you need to take care. Jean-Pie...

A beautiful necropsy that only Avcanada could regal one with…
