Does anyone know who is flying Covid patients out of Alberta? There must be a lot of companies involved if they have to ask the RCAF for help.

Don't interfere with them!

I don't want this to sound flippant but how many pilots do you need? The second response you mentioned seems like an acceptable candidate if they have a float rating, why not go with them?

Get yourself on the other end of the rope!

He must have had a GREAT camera. Area 51 is 690 miles away from Roswell airport.

The rear stick in the Scout CAN be removed. ACA actually makes a cover to go over the exposed stub that remains. It is not the front seat that is the problem, it is the rear seat.

Lots of work but the current price is right.

Marg was one of the good ones. We'll miss her.

Do you have a CADOR number for this event? I can't seem to find it in the database.

You do what you have to do!

Beech 18,

Did you run out of pictures? I look forward to your post each month.

I forget where(australia maybe) the Antonov took out about 150' of chain link fence, and flew with it to afghanistan or something. Great vid A few of the details are a bit different but you may be recalling this one. This was also on landing. https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=20070...

All listed here. https://rafburtonwoodbase.org/corporation/877832

Go big or go home. By 9 of these and watch the mouths drop open. Imagine a 9=plane roll! Bonus capability in the off season.

Agreed. Also, if it is a smaller field, with a single operator on site, I am surprised that the person, if it was indeed their reserved cord, wouldn't just poke their head into the hangar and let you know that they needed "their" cord. I am very proud that aviation seems to be the last bastion of ho...

The Director Of Maintenance would be one of the people that Pilot DAR would be there to work with. This does NOT mean that they own, control or even have anything to do with the parking spots or the power cords serving those spots. Perhaps it was his cord, perhaps it was one that belonged to his com...

Mikey McBryan may have to start another YouTube series to pay for the fill up of his DC-3. It's parked there and he is planning to go to Oshkosh.

I've always used Chimo Air in the past but they were taken over by Superior Airways last summer and I have not been there since. I'm sure they can advise you on the availability of fuel. http://superiorairways.com/

Hi Blakey, Trust you are well and keeping busy my friend! So is 122.0 still being commonly used? That’s not the impression I got from the link you provided... (I’ll be driving from the GTA to YOW around Easter will send you an email and see if you are around!) [/quote] As far as I am aware of, 122.0...

Creeper,

You just had to ask an old guy.

Stirling Ontario is a welcoming airport with fuel, washroom (No shower.) and lots of room for camping. http://stirlingairport.ca/ If the family is ready for a little luxury by the time you hit Ontario, have a look at the Elmhirst Resort on Rice Lake. If you book it ahead, you can get a float rating ...
