Re: Resolute Bay Accident - Pilots Discussion Thread

Those failsafe systems are standard even in the new NG aircraft...nothing to be alarmed about.

they are pretty expensive units, thats pretty much the reason! tragic loss though :( Your talking about $1000 on a $200,000. airplane.

Re: C-GLFP Lancair IV-P down - destroyed - minor injuries .

After the accident, Leinweber has opted out of high flying a year early. He still owns two planes, which he’ll use for flights he deems “mundane” — low altitudes, low performance, strictly under visual flight rules. “From now on, it’s pretty simple,” he says. “I’ll no longer fly dangerously.” lol.....

Re: Watch your fuel!!

:( had a lot of hours in YAX...sucks!

Although, that plane had a rough history when it came to getting "destroyed". It once went through a barn which clipped its wings!

Also, Wawa to Sioux Lookout isnt that bad of a flight, if you plan it well enough! I flew YAX from North Bay to Sault St Marie!
