Readers please note, there is a WaldoPepper and a WaldoPeppar on AVCanada.....I am WaldoPeppar, thia is not my thread.

Trump on TV now announcing all Max 8 and 9s grounded immediately on landing at their destinations

There is still the one in Mont Laurier, I saw it there last August and was told it was for sale

Kejidog, You asked a few posts back about fuel at Moncton at the school. I have stopped there a few times and YES , they have 100LL there at a reasonable price. No landing fees. Just pull up to the pump by the school...self serve...pull out the credit card. They have always been friendly and helpful...

There are active COPA flights in St John's (97) and Exploits Valley -CCP2 ( flt195) . I still have 3 barrels of 100LL for visitors at Exploits (sold my airplane) and am probably the cheapest on the Island at $2.75 a liter. At flt 195 , we have tie downs ...deliver fuel ..can provide courtesy transpo...

A review of my logbook shows one flight in "942"...in May 25, 1970...5.2 hours, a NAV trip at ANS CFB Winnipeg Does not quite jive with your data moose, at you say she was rebranded shortly after that and she was not supposed to be in Winnipeg then. Not sure if same airframe. My logbook is full of t...

If you are serious about flying in the St John's area, contact COPA Flt 97 members...they are very active there and can answer all your questions. They have a Facebook site you can check out.There are several Hangars at Harbor Grace and active pilots there, it is a grass strip. Hangarage on the isla...

There is Gen Aviation in NL..... Check out COPA Flights 97 in St Johns and 195 in Central. AV gas is expensive and limited....it really helps if you can burn Mogas. I buy 100ll in bulk and store and can go anywhere in NL and return with full tanks ( From Central) It is agreed that weather on the Ava...

You guys are TOO funny
Reminds me of the WKRP Cincinnati episode of dropping live turkeys from a helicopter...

Pilotdar, Are you on floats or wheels? There is a new COPA flight , Flight 195 at Exploits Valley Airport, CCP2, good Mogas available. Loaner vehicle and accommodations as well for visiting COPA members. With a bit of notice of requirements , we could probably help with Avgas. Fogo Island is a must....

10 to Six?

Thanks longtimer...you beat me to it.

Flyinghigh...quote "saying crap" .....really????

To add to WestJet's woes....They are in the news again this morning.....this time it is about pilot fatigue....a "former pilot " who quit because of working conditions speaks out. The report does say the working conditions were within Canadian rules ...BUT Canadian rules are some of the worst in the...

This is the lead story on "The National" tonight.....while it is not a fact....I do not believe WestJet's nightmare is going to go away any time soon. Apparently 17000 have signed a petition for Greg to resign.

I have served regular force and twice in reserves...most recently in mid nineties.....I do not have a "VET" vanity plate....I do not recall my service number(s)...nor do I have my commissioning scroll ( ex wife burned it). I do not recall any service cards...... I have memories....that is enough for...

A different camera angle shot, on the news this morning and just now, showed he had shut down the front engine and the prop was almost horizontal...out of the way. The touch down was smooth with a small skip....it looked like he could have powered right on into shore on the rear engine. The airplane...

http://www.staradvertiser.com/breaking-news/pilot-ditches-small-plane-off-lagoon-drive/ A Cessna 337 ditches after a landing gear problem. Story says he had a problem before landing and then circled "AIRPORT" for two hours to burn off fuel.....and then " ditches" . I am having some problem with any ...

In the past, this type of flying was done by supervisory type pilots and not available to line pilots...if I remember correctly

Pavese, Thank you for that info....I agree with your info 100%
Note to 5x5...pavese has answered your question better than I .

5x5: I did not say that the Elite is not worth buying.....I was saying that given the choice between an Elite and a Rebel...it was suggested to me to get a Rebel.....That was several years ago and I cannot remember the exact reasons now and doubt I still have my notes. I would have to research again...

Greg61 I own a c185 on floats and was nervous at first flying it because it was so small...( Previous a/c was Ea330) My son"s father-in-law has a Murphy rebel on murphy floats that he built and it was 3 years before I would get in it. Well I loved the aircraft....limited load on floats..more space t...

BREAKING news This Morning:
The CO-PILOT DID IT!
- he was a German National
- low time, hired in 2013
- a deliberate act to destroy the aircraftl

Edited due thread drift...subject dealt with in another thread.

My limit for my 185 on wip 3730s is 18-20" trough to crest....max 20 kts gusting
I find it hard enough turning out of wind at that wind speed.
