Re: Curious about the armed forces

I served for 20 years in the forces and retired ten years ago. If you have your licence why go military unless you plan on staying your entire life? Military A/C do not have C of A. This could affect your currency with having your licence, but I'm not sure. Think long and hard about this. Read close...

Re: TC Exam Questions and Publishers

Dale Crane (producer of the ASA test guides) does not have access to the question bank at the FAA. Those test guides were made from simply asking the mechanics what questions they were asked after they'd written the tests. Nothing fancy, but effective.

Re: AVIATION MAINTENANCE IN CANADA

Very good point Cranium about the experience and training requirements of the States. I don't at all understand it and was told while in the States that young guys attempting the tests and the practical exam immediately upon qualifying time wise have a difficult time and often fail.
