I am not a transwest fan but given the option I think i would go to Transwest verses YZF. The sole reason being I keep hearing hoaror stories of guys going to YZF and finding jobs till their break happens then realize that they can't actualy afford to take their flying job. I don't know transwest ph...

Well Evan I can tell you that i still love my job as much as i did the first day i started. I have been flying for six years now but you really got to be dedicated to it. I have only seen my family one week in the past sixteen months. If your girlfriend isn't willing to move you will eventually lose...

Talk to your local CASARA. I heard a rumour that they rent machines. Again that is just third hand information.

Check your company ops manual too. Make sure they have the ops spec if your worried about duty extentions.

DKO, you should be quiet and let this one die. Your clown got a runway report from the operator, got that report confirmed from a C-414 driver. Have you ever seen a 414 tire? If anything would sink out of sight it would be that machine. Someone with your wisdom is going to have to learn some underst...

WE"RE GONNA MAKE IT!

From Almost Famous. After they crew flew threw a thunderstorm.

Let the mudd slinging begin. I looked this strip up in the cfs and i don't see a problem if the operator said it was good. Is the whole strip useable? I fly a BE20 out of strips shorter than at gross wieght. Fast air takes there King Airs into Poplar River. We know Flythebug is National management a...

Wow, you should do some homework. Bring lots of Jack Daniels and money for poker. The boys of Transwest and NDA should be able to relieve you of both. The JD will also help you see the beautiful women. You shouldn't have to worry about rent, should be supplied. Groceries are expensive. If you got a ...

Think of the outside temp before operating drain too. Had a gungho co-pilot decide to drain the fuel once when it was -20 well last time i checked water was some what solid at that temp but he managed to get the drain stuck open. delayed the flight 11/2 hours. pasengers and the boss were extremely i...

Wow I am conflicted. here is some facts. The son is at least 10 not that it makes a difference but I can't believe people would wish or say that someone deserves an acident. Picture your self as the brother in question just out haveing fun in the 172 with your son and haveing a momentary lapse of ju...

Hey EVERYONE lay off tripod it is not his fault he went to colledge and was lead to believe flying was glamorous. He probly lives in Thompson and goes to the Bankside still wearing the three bars that give him the right to serve coffee in the Cessna 310 and picking up all the highschool chicks too s...

doesn't any one read maps any more? All you need in a gps is a garmin 95 or the likes. Something that shows track, bearing and ground speed. I think people are starting to rely in gps too much. Saying that I do have to priviledge of useing a garmin 530 for ifr purposes, but relying on a hand held gp...

here is my two cents. Flew Medivac's in Northern Saskatchewan for two years and this is the first time I ever eveny heard of this code system. If you have a nurse and her patient in the back they have deemed it too serious to stay in the comunity. That being said who are we as pilots to decide how s...
