Re: Seneca 1 battery location.

If you do keep it out of the plane don't leave it sitting on bare concrete... I don't remember what the story behind it is or if its an old wives tale but if you're going to leave it on the ground put a piece of wood or cardboard or something under it... http://www.thebatteryterminal.com/TechTalk_B...

Re: CMA Incident in Rainbow Lake

Seems to me there is some terminology confusion going on here. These speeds are defined in FAR 25 for transport category aircraft. V1 is the takeoff decision speed - if an engine failure occurs below this speed you abort or reject the takeoff. If it occurs above this speed you continue the takeoff. ...

Re: engine failure

I think you'll find that the two are very different indeed, and most of the websites you quote are American. Americans tend to use the terms interchangeably as you can see in those pieces you quoted, we do not in Canada. stl You should perhaps pass that thought to the T.S.B. of Canada. The highligh...

Re: Are HOT chicks really worth the PITA factor?

Me thinks there is a bit of a generation gap thing going on here. 25 years ago or so, if a woman (or man) was hot they were thought to be horny. Now it seems if someone is hot they are good looking. I will take the former definition thank-you very much!! And for all you young bucks out there, Widow ...
