Re: Dangerous Flights

Not just the CP. At the time this was taped he was still a part owner. One would think prior to leaving Yellowknife they would have had the flight plan all figured out. Rather then looking like a foul saying he has been up most of the night trying to figure the last leg out on the day they were doi...

Re: Terrifying Views on Climate Change [NO DEPRESSIVES]

I'm not sure who your remark is directed at, nor what exactly you mean by it. I think my position was quite clearly stated. None-the-less, if James Lovelock flies to Toronto for a conference or China for climate consultation, that apparently negates what he says? I personally do think fuels should ...

Re: Companies to avoid

Randelman,

Post your experience. If you have less than 500TT you could probably weed out the medevac companies.

Being a "low timer", sometimes you have no choice but take the crappy jobs. If you have no income now, the crappy jobs sometimes pay the bills. 8)

Dual Aft Body Strakes eliminate this separation, channeling the vortices and accelerating the air -- in effect, pushing the airplane through the air. Also... They streamline the wing and body ...
