This is probably a waste of electrons in this forum, but here goes. A medically-informed response to the virus is the only long term solution, but when implementing it creates economic chaos that’s worse than the virus, the answer is not to condemn some people to die from a preventable illness so th...

Welcome to the Whack Jobs Are Us clearing house.

Never finding the wreckage is completely plausible. A high school friend of mine was cruising in a pleasure boat in similar waters on Lake Ontario when a sudden wind came up and they were lost. Another boater saw them disappear below the surface on his way to attempt a rescue. Extensive sonar search...

The man was homeless and somehow managed to find his way through / over a fence onto the airfield.

A pilot who decides its okay to depart with an attitude indicator that will fix itself during the flight is indicative of someone who's worked in a negative safety culture. To be fair, he could have learned such behaviour anywhere (it doesn't have to be Tindi), but he definitely learned it somewhere.

Provided there are no arriving or departing aircraft using the airport, you can use the taxiways for other purposes such as repositioning.

Sorry, I forgot momentarily how important political correctness is when it comes to this whole disaster. I will re-arrange my priorities and admit my privilege.

Never invoke a bullshit argument unless you're prepared to be called out on it.

Why would someone start an arson fire of that magnitude in the middle of the day? Seems pretty risky to me.

They have been doing it for decades in her home country.

Her home country is Canada.

The Dutch have tried this idea ...
Hopefully this link works.

It doesn’t.

We’ve resigned ourselves to the fact that deaths have and will continue to occur - the news cycle gives us little other option. Still, some people who have gone into an ICU have now been released from hospital. If it were my loved one who was struggling, I’d want them to have the same chance. It’s t...

Pelmet, You’re asking for a clinical approach to an emotional problem. Imagine, instead of that idea, we decide to make everyone stand in the streets wearing a blindfold and we’ll send a fleet of trucks through at high speed. The lucky ones who dive the right way will be saved, too bad for the rest....

A company can be sold and the AOC can be transferred with it. TC has requirements and a process to follow for changes to approved positions (ops manager, chief pilot, PRM). If none of those change, the only thing they need is an update of the company name and contact information for the principal ow...

There's a Trump tweet for everything, and every one of them is a bad joke.

Watch this Joe Rogan podcast from March 10th. It's the most informative 90 minutes I've seen on the pandemic. The man knows his stuff. He answers the man made question starting at the 18:00 mark.

This is the second fatal accident for Lion Air (not the Indonesian airline) in a few months. The first one was a King Air on another medivac flight. The Philippine CAA has pulled their operating certificate.

Too much time inverted causes brain damage.

TC will only issue an extension if the application is received prior to expiry. Given the current situation, i should think they’d be willing to accommodate any reasonable request.

The cabin fever is obviously getting to some of you. Go for a long walk on a quiet trail in the country. Take a few deep breaths and try to rediscover your humanity.

Is there even a transport office anywhere you can just walk into? The one in YYJ has been closed for a long time, they are there, you just can't go in without an appointment.

Very few because they removed the admin / reception positions at many of the TCCs.

Emirates is shutting down in the next couple of days. Mostly but not entirely. They plan to continue flights to a few destinations (YYZ among them) to help repatriate folks back to their home countries, and they're also continuing cargo operations. At the moment (until June), no pilot layoffs but e...

Until both governments can agree on the framework its still just a proposal, but a friend with CBSA at the Niagara crossing says personal entries by US citizens have slowed to a trickle. Some, when told they must isolate for 14 days, are turning around.

Absolutely....in a dog-eat-dog world. IMO, good corporate leadership would recognise that if the employees are hurting, then the management should be seen to hurt also... They are hurting in ways we can't even begin to comprehend. Contrary to popular thinking, they are human too. Most are doing 18+...
