Hope someone can shed some light for me... I have a 185 with edo 2790's and when I park it and don't fly for a bit(week or so) the hydrallic pressure bleeds off so when airborne and I select gear up it just runs hydraulic pump for very long time and doesn't bring gear up and lock.... I have to cycle...

Does anyone know if there is a stc/lstc for external load for 185 w/edo 2790’s? Can you send me PM if you know anyone that has one.

Anyone know if you can sms to get weather in Canada? I believe in the US you can send a sms to 466453 and a few numbers to get weather and stock quotes ect. Something like "metar ksdl" and it would send you a sms with ksdl latest metar. I was thinking that one could use a inReach at altitude and sen...

Under FARS they have an approval process however in that circular it states the following "EFBs include everything from commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) notebook computers to fully-integrated avionics systems. The FAA AC 120-76A referenced above addresses the use of EFBs in the United States. While t...

Hawkerflyer, Curious as you where you got your info on sending out for pressure testing and certification number. I didn't see that anywhere in the circular. An iPad is a class 1 EFB. Here is a link the the circular if anyone wants to read it. http://www.navcanada.ca/ContentDefinitionFiles/Publicati...

How does a bond affect whether or not a company is decent to work for?

Interesting... That's obviously why I never see them mentioned.

If it wasn't for Air Canada Regina wouldn't have an airport at all.

Maybe the FOs were taxiing?

Shut up

Globalstar should be a lot better soon. I read on the internet that they are adding a bunch more satellites to their constellation Their new phone looks pretty cool. It even has Ev-Do. Check it out: http://www.globalstar.ca/en/gsp1700/features.php Also, can't go wrong with a Iridium but I think the ...

If you have props, instead of pulling the throttle (MP) for the descent, reduce RPM (coarse pitch).

Pop quiz for the newbies: why is this more efficient?

So Hedley, when do we get this answer to your pop quiz?[/quote]

Whatever, if the home depot guy could get 150 million to quit after getting paid 50 million to lose money for the company, you're right, uncle milton deserves every penny...

That doesn't even make any sense.

wow, pretty cool. How long did that take you? Looks like some major work.

He deserves every penny.

Hope he gets caught, because he is stealing from my wallet. And, from every other taxpayer.

It's guys like this that get you caught.

Exactly, I don't think it is. Thats why I said, " I can't see that being very good either". But anyways, give us all an answer to your "pop quiz".

If you have props, instead of pulling the throttle (MP) for the descent, reduce RPM (coarse pitch). Pop quiz for the newbies: why is this more efficient? Sounds retarted. I'm not a newbie, but reducing your rpm will increase your MP. I have heard the opposite - people increasing their rpm which dec...

Fly to Nelson! That is a pretty cool little town...

I have seen used ones sell on ebay from time to time. Usually the brand "SafetyCell". Sportys.com sells one for $99.... But If you are looking at buying a brand new one expect to pay $100+.

I hear ya Doc!
Sounds a bit sketchy to me too.

Depends on the perameters of the equipment you are using. Generally on some passes we MUST be within 5 meters.

What kind of survey are you doing that requires that?

Nevermind, I guess I got my answer and for anyone else who cares.... Aparently is was URSUS Aviation's 172. It ran out of fuel and landed short of runway 27 in Norman Wells. The incident happened yeserday Sept. 22.

When did this 172 incident happen?
