I've uploaded some VFR waypoints in GPX format for the Vancouver area, in case anyone else might find them useful: http://www.naviatorapp.com/vancouver_vfr_wpts.gpx

Haha, probably not as much as I should!

I have compiled a GPX file containing the VFR reporting points for the Vancouver area. I've posted it online here: http://www.naviatorapp.com/vancouver_vfr_wpts.gpx

Cheers,

Awwww that sucks. I was planning on spending the day at long beach on Sunday. Figures, I knew there had to be a catch to all this sunny weather!

Scary stuff!

Yeah, I know some of the info is outdated. But my point is if people want to create a separate forum here to do what has already been built by COPA, why not just focus the effort on updating the fuel prices on COPA's web site? Maybe provide a link to the COPA site from a sticky post on avcanada or s...

Just a suggestion, but why not use the COPA Places to Fly (http://archive.copanational.org/PlacesToFly/index.php)? Seems kind of counter-productive to reinvent the wheel.

That looks crazy fun! I really hope one day I'll be able to afford to get my fling wing license.

No you're right. It's the same thing. 2(9 + 3) = 2 * (9 + 3). The multiplication symbol is implied when you put a number beside the parentheses. The answer is the same but the operation is not; though 2x = 2*x the difference is 2x is one number while 2*x has two, both the x and the 2, this is why t...

haha, try googling it: http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&q=48%C3%B72%289%2B3%29&aq=f&aqi=h1&aql=&oq=#hl=en&q=%2B48%C3%B72(9%2B3)&nocalc=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=85026ce329db349f Btw, google says 288 too: http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&q=48%C3%B72%289%2B3%29&aq=f...

No because like I said, there is an implied multiplication between the 2 and the parentheses.

Rewrite it as 48 / 2 * (9 + 3). Really, this is grade 5 level math.

No you're right. It's the same thing. 2(9 + 3) = 2 * (9 + 3). The multiplication symbol is implied when you put a number beside the parentheses.

48 / 2 * (9 + 3)
= 48 / 2 * 12
= 24 * 12
= 288

I can't believe half the people who have voted think the answer is 2.

I wonder who their "approved parties" are? This is something I am definitely considering pursuing. My Android app is ready for beta testing if anyone is interested. The APK can be found here: http://forum.naviatorapp.com/viewtopic.php?id=2 Unfortunately all the non American data comes from unofficia...

Yeah, I thought I heard the pilot (Scott?) who called maintenance say that they had shut the engine down in flight.

ForeFlight App has VNC, Hi/Chart overlays.....all free.....pretty nifty app actually There is a pro option which is like $75 a year. It includes approach plate and airport diagram overlays. Actually it's free for 30 days and then the subscription is $75/year. The pro option is $150/year. As far as ...

ODF you are probably right. It really bugs me that navcan doesn't make any of their data available in a useful digital format.

Would it be better to have access to geo-referenced digital charts even if they cost money rather than have access to none at all?

This is something I desperately want Nav Canada to make available. I'm working on an Android app and right now I can only offer it to American pilots because there is simply no reliable data for Canada. It's totally depressing when you compare all the innovations that have been made in the USA v.s. ...

I also think a feedback mechanism would be important. When I was in university I used a web site, http://www.ratemyprofessors.com/ to help me decide which courses I should register for. If there was more than one class for a course, I would make sure I chose the one with the best professor. I think ...

Exactly.

The new deal the CRTC is imposing, is that the small ISPs will buy bandwidth from the big telcos the same as any other customer, but at a discounted rate. The difference between their bulk rate and normal retail rates is where they will earn their money. Just how much their customers will have to p...

I haven't used it, but the FAQ says it doesn't include Canadian charts or data. Does this unit include maps of Canada? Answer: Currently only U.S. maps and data are available on the iFly 700 I really wish Nav Canada would adopt a more open approach to data like the US government does. There have bee...
