Just make an entry along the lines of "to correct for errors on XX date" new total times are X, Y, etc"
Its really not that big a deal. I would challenge you to find any paper logbook that hasn't been redone and has no errors in it.

I paid $50 for a medical extension in the middle of March, days before the blanket extensions were issued. It took me over two months and dozens of emails and phone calls to get a refund. Not a huge deal, but a giant pain in the ass.

if this were illegal you would never see kit aircraft for sale. Obviously not the case.

In your example, if one is on a visual approach on an IFR flight plan, would the departing traffic be allowed to depart VFR on an IFR flight plan? Subject to ATC approval Hmm okay. Let me rephrase. Assuming nice weather. From an ATC point of view: in which situation would a plane that is not cancel...

Whitehorse is a great example of why. As a non radar environment in the mountains, they can only have one aircraft on the approach/missed at a time. Anyone else will be given a hold. This can become extremely limiting as minimum safe is 11,300 and non pressurized aircraft like the caravans and navaj...

How about taxiing for other than departure? Lets say we're taxiing across the field to the self serve fuel pump. Lets say its a VFR aircraft, getting ready to depart when the weather improves.

I can't imagine anybody is hiring at this point. As a CP of a 703 company, I generally try to respond to most applications even if we are not hiring. Ive certainly seen an increase in applications lately, but hard to say if thats virus related or seasonal. I don't think it is really poor etiquette ...

You can occasionally make a call with global star at those latitudes. I've never had an iridium fail.
If you don't need voice, an in reach offers excellent remote communications at a fraction of the cost.

Having said that, do you actually think you'll be doing much in the way of flying this season?

Won't be any if he can't get a medical. We've lost at least one pilot to that scenario.

Keep in mind that there have been upwards of 30,000 pilots laid off in the last month, and its going to take years to recover. If I was not already well situated in aviation, I wouldn't be looking to get into it right now.

best advice I could give is heaviest stuff as far forward as you can get it. Put light stuff at the back and that will lock the other stuff from shifting back. If it is not a full load then ropes and nets work well. Take advantage of float compartments (although you almost always forget you put som...

I've gotten multiple extensions over the years. Virus is easily a good enough reason. Simple lack of access to an examiner is what it usually is for me.

Ive been trying for a few weeks now to get ahold of someone to give me back the $50 I paid for a medical extension, just before they gave it to everyone. I'm starting to consider going through visa.

Had a super cub show up at the dock in Red Lake with a bear sitting in the back seat. I think he was even wearing a hat

I flew two live grizzly cubs out of the bush once. Did they ever stink.

COVID-19 poses a significant challenge to Canada’s healthcare system. Regulatory bodies at all levels of government are working to limit the strain on the system. To that end, all persons who currently hold a valid Transport Canada aviation Medical Certificate (MC) expiring on or before June 1st, 2...

i am no TSB investigator nor a TC inspector but the answer to all their questions is: COMPANY CULTURE Best first post ever. Used to deal with the “get er done” mindset for years. Toss all the technical horse 💩 around all you want...bottom line? Yup, you hit it. Cheers Illya They were the only bond ...

Is there any federal equivalent to the many provinces that have banned smoking in a workplace? Obviously someone on the airplane is working.

Just because you don't know what TC does when you renew your medical, doesn't mean they're not doing something when you renew your medical.

What are they doing then? The fee didn't change when AIP amendments stopped being sent out.

I've been waiting 8 months, no bill yet, nor is it even listed as renewed on the TC General Aviation Online account. Can't pay if they don't bill me! This happened once after 6 mths. I was applying for a new job and wanted to make sure everything was in order. Turned out they didn't receive my medi...

I've never paid it. Sometimes it is stolen from my taxes. Sometimes it goes to collections, but they don't actually have any authority to collect and if you call them on it it goes away. I'm still waiting on an explanation as to what this fee is for. My doctor does all the paperwork.

In BOTH accidents, pilots forgot to Fly The Plane ! They also had a "runaway trim" but did not do a simple memory item like shut the trim switch off ! The Ethiopian crew did turn it off. They did exactly what Boeing told them to do. They were left with jammed stabilizer that they could not physical...

Some aircraft manuals (C208) comes to mind specify "a minimum crew of one in the left seat" but absent of that, flying from the right is totally legal. Instructors do it all the time.

We use them fleet wide, no real issues. The main failure point is the power adapter, its best if you can hardwire it in to your aircraft so the plug doesn't get jostled.
