Re: Dunnville Airport Closing
We had 2 single engine pipers move to CYFD from Dunnville.
Again another shame that wind turbines provide more revenue then an airport.

Re: Effective Date Range of Summer/Winter Passenger Weights
We use daylight savings time to determine which summer/winter weight to use.
You may want to check the recent TC Advisory Circular about using actual passenger weights and segmented weights vs standard weights. Sorry I don't have a link to the AC.
Good luck,
MC

We flew along each of the arcs and missed approaches; taking video of the approach and photos of the limiting obstacles on approaches. The flight checks are done every 3 yea...

Re: Takeoff Ad Absurdum-AvWeb SN601 accident from 1997-good
A guy at Brantford/CYFD couldn't get one of the engines on an Aztec started so he still attempted the takeoff. Plane was written off, pilot had minor injuries. Here is the CADOR report: http://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/2/cadors-screaq/rpt.aspx?lang=eng&rptcads=2009O1822&cads=&cadorsno=®cd=0&oc...

Re: Hose Fabrication
We've used Cantwell Cullen for a number of hose projects.
We sent them the old hoses and asked them to duplicate the set.
Fair prices too.

Re: DC3's in Southern Ontario
The DC3/R4D's in Brantford are going to be scrapped in the next few weeks.
Former owner left town and owes parking fees against the airframes.
Don't worry CWH is coming to scavenge some of the parts to keep their Gooney bird flying.

Re: Soooooooo....... Flight Crew fart stories, anyone?
We were in a PC12 heading into Florida from Ontario. The passengers were 4 guys. One was a chef who brought the most incredible sliced smoked meat tray and lots of wine for everyone. 4.1 hrs later at the Top of Descent, we hear the guys in the back giggling - even louder than the PT6! In the PC12 th...

Re: Question about altitude minimums on approah plates.....
The TC document TP308 which is the criteria used to develop Instrument Approaches can be a good resource for a question like this. If you can understand why those altitudes were selected it can greatly aid your situational awareness during every approach. MC http://www.icpschool.ca/Downloads/files/G...
