I just paid. No back date.
For delay in printing booklets I was told they are not printing any right now due to “supply chain issues”.

Re: Transition from the bush to an airline - I could really use some advice
All the above by Altiplino says is right. First things first. Take the steps to get your ATPL first. You will then get on with a 705. Others on here will know the best places where Air Canada likes to hire from. Once there you will have all your other questions answered by those around you and will ...

Re: Whatever Happened to Saltspring's Airport?
I just visited Saltspring Island this weekend - fun little day trip. I too wondered if there was an airstrip there, so I googled it - found this old thread, as well as this article from 1972 about its opening. Looks like it was mired in controversy from the get go: http://saltspringarchives.com/dri...

Re: Winter ski operating temps
Hi folks. I have lots of experience on floats but am virtually a virgin on light aircraft on skis. So I have a couple of questions. 1. On a day fishing trip, how long can I park a plane and what is the lowest temp I can expect without a heat source. 2. What is the best. way to keep the engine warm ...

Re: DHC-2 exhaust & cabin heater
You should be able to rest your coffee on the heater duct to keep it hot. DHC-2 on floats. It was cold, small lakes were starting to freeze. River was still open. The cable to the heater on the exhaust broke so we lock wired the door shut so we could get full heat. What could go wrong? 30 minutes a...

Re: Should I Go Back?
You are still young so why not follow your dream?
Everyone on here that is a working pilot somehow did it and so can you.
Don’t worry about the money, you will be able to meet your needs, and be happy doing it.
Go for it.

Re: Electric Float Pump
I worked for one place where something like that would have come in real handy ha ha. A good workout in the am is great stress relief! When you have to continue those workouts in the afternoon it gets to be a bit much. ;). How tight an operator keeps their floats is usually a good indicator of the m...

Transpicuous? ha ha. I had to look that up. I wonder if anyone else did . I wonder why I have never hear that word before. Too long for Scrabble.

It's ideas like this that could help improve working condition for pilots in Canada and there is no time like the present with the current experienced pilot shortage.

Re: Flair off runway excursion YKF
Glad no one was hurt.
In one article I read a passenger got a text from Flair something like "How was the flight?". They were going to respond it would be nice to get dropped off at the terminal next time They also said they would travel with Flair again in the future.
No big deal

Yeah, yawn, only about 800 people in Canada have had their lives totally messed up by being mandated to take the vaccine.... You are right, let's not talk about this maybe it will go away.
