Went to the grocery store today. Ended up in a lineup, in the rain, and a bit of wind, at 3 degrees C. Behind an old gent, 6 feet away. And i also am an old gent.

On the other hand, you didn’t have to queue for the checkout, did you?

The UPX isn’t high speed rail?

They need more gates and taxiways, not runways

Why can we not isolate the vulnerable and elderly instead of everyone??? Because even if you isolate the vulnerable and elderly, enough not-elderly and not-vulnerable people need intensive treatment that hospitals will still be overwhelmed and the health system will still collapse, which will have ...

OK, great. I tried calling my AME but no answer. Thought maybe he was shut down. I'll try again.

Thanks.

He might be shut down. But that would be his choice.

AMEs and AMOs are for the most part still working so you should be able to schedule an inspection.

If I WERE a politician ...

Fixed that for ya.

If they built a high-speed monorail link from airside at YYZ to airside at YHM, you could think of it as a YYZ ramp expansion. However long it took it would still be quicker than getting to most of the gates at Heathrow Terminal 2.

Buttonville and Downsview aren't big enough or in the right places; Pickering is/was supposed to be much larger than either.

Which airports are shuttered or being shuttered? Sorry. I did not word that very well. Not local to YQT, I was referring to the changes at Buttonville and Downsview. Maybe shutter was the wrong word. CYQT is Thunder Bay, and Buttonville and Downsview are in Toronto... I'm not making the connection.

A high speed rail link could get passengers from Toronto to CYHM in 25 minutes.

Which airports are shuttered or being shuttered? Downsview is owned by Bombardier; they will want the most money for it, which they will get by turning it into housing. Also it's very close to Pearson so coordinating approaching and departing aircraft would be a nightmare. Buttonville already is a r...

But the price of the crude is set in $US. But then that is true for mogas, too, which has dropped by nearly 50%. To be honest FBOs are taking such a hit right now it seems wrong to deny them a few extra cents on whatever they are managing to sell.

CAD vs USD has cratered, too.

Why would they change the flight number for a flight that's already scheduled?

I'm pretty sure the real answer has something to do with chemtrails, anyway.

One hopes the backlog of medical certificates can be cleared in the months or years these measures are in place. I wonder if TC has ever taken so long to produce an initial certificate that it had expired by the date of issue?

First year Seneca student. All classes have been moved online for the rest of the semester. As for the summer, where the flight training begins, it is pin drop silence from upper management. Feel like I’m in a pitch black room with no doors, nobody is talking to us. If summer is cancelled, I wish t...

Sorry southern alberta, schools I've looked at are Springbank, Okotoks, and olds/Didsbury areas. Guess I have to buy a plane or a share in a plane. Is there a way to at least get written exams completed during this time, or is everyone SOL for the foreseeable future? you need 10 hours flight time t...

Says the Canadian Aviation Regulation 406.03.

Everyone who held short 08/26 in a Qcumber waiting for damn circuit traffic always swore "when the fu$k is GA gonna get kicked out of ytz." #jokesonus Half the people in the front seats of the Q400 there did their first solo flight in the circuit at that same airport. Pretty sure very few want GA r...

completely normal landing and touchdown....

Up to a point!

New to the forum here due to this situation, trying to find alternatives and answers like everyone. After a 10yr hiatus from flying I just recently got into a position to finish my ppl and then this happens. Currently trying to find someone local to rent a plane from as my old flight instructor is ...

I did not see that statement in 571.07: Installation of new parts.

You looked in Standard 571.07. The quoted text is from Regulation 571.07.

What are you wanting to install?
