That's what I figured when I talked to Jack a few years ago. Seems like a really good operation. I was just scared there was a big up-rising within the ranks or other scary news. Sad to hear about one of the owners dying. I believe I have heard his name, just can't recall it at the moment.

Do I give them a resume, or do I run and hide?

Also, 877 revenue hours seems pretty low for 5 aircraft in a season. Pilots sure aren't running into duty time issues there.

Awesome!

Tell the american tourists that. Us lodge pilots could use some work.

Make a double row with the 7 cyl R2800 110hp engine. 14 cylinders and ~200hp. That's closer to the power that an RV8 should have.

Every fling-wing pilot I've met was a bit wacky. This explains why

I'm curious, why is the prop on the HA turbo otter feathered? I see no operational advantages in doing so.

The west doesn't want to stomach another Iraq-like war.

Two years ago, I worked for one company that treated their employees like crap. I didn't give a rats ass about that company. I would swear in front of customers, not care about their issues, or delivering the services properly. Sure, I'd get the job done, but I'm sure I left a bad impression about m...

What does it matter what they call it? The point is why did it happen and how do we prevent it from happening again?

Hey, I have that t-shirt!
Congrats on the job.

A letter from Revenue Canada could be a tax rebate. Judging by pilot pay, it probably is.

Back on topic now. Some people I know have called and asked what the best time to come by is.

If employers paid decent wages and treated employees properly, then nobody would have to pay unions to bitch and complain Yeah, I thought the $28 per hour that Canada Post was paying high school dropouts was criminally low.

If employers paid decent wages and treated employees properly, then nobody would have to pay unions to bitch and complain. I've never been unionized, and never needed it. Of course I've had shitty jobs, but I just found a new one. Employees are worth what they demmand. If your not getting paid fairl...

Anything short of a howitzer and your not going to drop a bear. You need to trick the bear into thinking us flimsy little meat bags are actually stronger than it is. Rubber buck shot is going to cause a lot of pain, and the accompanying loud noise will probably convince it that you are stronger. If ...

When young Jimmy get his fresh PPL, and takes Ma and Pa for a flight in the 172. Ma and Pa pay for the flight. Is that illegal?

The flight wouldn't have happened without Ma and Pa
Reward is that 1.0 in the logbook

Flying LOP won't hurt an engine if you use low power settings. For higher compression, normally aspirated engines like the IO-520, I'd be scared to go above 23" and be LOP. That works great in little over-powered rocket-ships, but in a C185, run it 24 squared, and 100 degrees rich. If you want to sa...

GP what? I use a MAP.

In seriousness, how many 180s do you think have a GPS in them? I have a hand-held hiking GPS to help me out, but the old fashoned map is what I use 99% of the time.

I bet he felt like an idiot!

Well, I'll be damned. Your right, completely unbiased.

I'm gonna call cheater! There's no way a jet can compare with the classic radial in terms of the pleasant sound produced.

I gotta find me an asian lady!

The C185 float plane prop goes supersonic at the tips. That's why the thing is so danm loud, 2850rpm on takeoff. I was talking to the the test pilot who did the STC in the US for the MT prop on the 185, and he said the primary reason for doing the STC was to reduce the tip speed and thus the noise. ...

I thought the answer was 288

About 150hp short and a 400lbs heavy. Or 400hp short if you compare it to a Garret powered Otter.
