Looks like you could squeeze in a 6,000' east-west strip if the green field on the east side is part of the property.

Reminds me of this scene...

KRIC-CYYZ must have been close to 2.5 on the -102.

Only launch I've heard about this week is of the Shuttle Discovery, but now that's delayed until Nov 30.

Closer to YYZ...that's the problem. Can't see that ever happening.

What are the odds of the relocation site being Pickering?

must be right:

The photo you were looking for has been deleted.

That was always part of my engine failure flow in the Cherokees, along with simply looking at the fuel gauges. It had to have been something more than that.

YKZ was perfect. What ever happened to that?

Does the airport owner own the surrounding farm fields? Otherwise, there's no way Markham airport property is larger than Buttonville's. Have a look.. http://maps.google.ca/maps?q=Airport&hl=en&cd=2&ei=2i-2TKytHYTyMvTdqPUJ&sig2=RFT3lsoOSpw2nYiqQI0D2w&ie=UTF8&view=map&cid=17850298215940952319&iwloc=A...

I don't follow you..shut down Buttonville and move all the planes to Markham? Who's planes are you suggesting should move to Markham? There's probably 200 planes based at Buttonville. How much can you expand at Markham...another 500' on each end of the runway? Do they even have hangars there? Please...

Fast forward a little more time, and he got hired in Asia flying an A320. He had well under 2,000 hours on small turbine aircraft. Do you think he regrets his decision now? He's doing exceptionally well and is having a great time. I'm glad he's doing well and having a great time. Please thank him f...

I'm sure he appreciates what you're implying in your post. Have you flown with him or taken lessons from him? I'm guessing, no.

Keep in mind some guys are better pilots and teachers at 900 hours than some guys with three times that amount of time.

Engaged with a 'normal' job, got tossed by her a year into working as an instructor. Been 10 years and 4 serious girlfriends later, all of them thinking I'm nuts. Doubt I'll ever get married while working as a pilot and I'm cool with that.

I always thought it was funny to see YYZ in a clearance. I could just imagine having to revert to that after a comm failure and crossing directly over Pearson (and Downsview) at 4000ft... the controllers getting all those airliners out of the way of your NORAD C172.... I always thought that too, bu...

If there's a decent chance you won't get in at CYHM, use CYYZ as the alternate, simply because there's an ILS to every runway unlike CYKF.

You must be thinking of another aircraft. I believe the aircraft was a CRJ700. If so..

I was trying to stay away from pure GPS routing, just in case of a failure, but of course around here there is always vectoring anyways. I always thought it was funny to see YYZ in a clearance.

Explains why a MX painted airbus is parked at the YYZ AC hangar, guess they're being seized in YYZ as well.

Ad in the Globe for seasoned seasonal pilots this morning.

AC could charter Air Creebec, Air Georgian or others to provide aircraft during a strike at Jazz Air LP. Any pilot operating those aircraft would be scabbing Jazz Air pilots work. Would Jazz fly GGN routes if the GGN guys had gone on strike during their negotiations? It's all AC flying. AC gives it...

Perhaps he just wants to fly on Jazz when they start operating at the Island again..
