I've seen F-18's, Hawks and even the Snowbirds (a pair of) do passes well over 200 kts, if the tower clears it what is the problem? I used to work at a field in SW Ontario and a F-18 driver used to come home on the odd weekend and would do some passes, etc to 'burn off fuel'. ----And what about when...

http://www.aero-news.net/index.cfm?ContentBlockID=7ea22f5f-3b8c-499c-a2b2-1cd4a8db1b87& I couldn't believe this when I read it.

Discouraging the face of Aviation in Canada isn't it, but at least the industry seems to be coming around. I don't know of many other professions where you pay out so much to get so little.....its' good most of us do this for the love of flying. Peter, I don't know if other avenues might be more fin...

That would probably be minimum at best for most operators/FTU, they would probably want some experience (like everything).

I thought the TwinStar was FAA Certified at OSH? I think eventually Diesel engines will have larger acceptance once some of the AME's get to work on them/train on them and therefore will not be so apprehensive of non-conventional engines.
