Save a buck? Hasn't this concept been beaten to death? Basically... if you have to go away to a flight school (ie move from home), paying for living and tution, your basically paying the exact same amount if if you lived at home and went to a local flying club. And as for being against flying paid f...

So here's a question then. Where does all the money the college gets to give people all this nifty training go when they don't give it to the students?? Probably to buy those high speed orange gloves that the students refuel airplanes with. Basically, No flight schools should be government subsidize...

If you decide to live at 455 James St., just remember... You are REQUIRED to be a champion. Being a champion requires getting wasted on a regular basis... SMASHING things. Setting your kitchen on fire. Puking all over yourself and dominating sluts. That house is not a sanctuary for sallies. Go to co...

Finally! An area on this forum in which I have some expertise. Boozing in Thunder Bay. First off let me say that Thunder Bay is a wonderful, magical place when it comes to it's bars and its women. For such a sunny northern destination it really out does itself. Let me give you a breakdown on the spo...

Bottom line is that you shouldn't advertise something you can't deliver.

Endless, You hit it right on the head. In my opinion that is completely unacceptable. What if Sault College told their current second year students that they would not be receiving a mult-ifr, and they would not be getting any compensation for it. You can bet the college would have a situation on th...

Tell that to the placard!

Sorry to burst your bubble, but towing at a gliding club most of the time usually isn't as easy as just walking in the door and asking for a towing gig. First of all, most gliding clubs want their towpilots to have a glider license and some soaring experiance. It makes the operation run that much sm...

Damn right. I may love my job, but my love of flying isn't going to pay the bills.

What's the progression at Perimeter?

I assume its off the ramp into co-joe on Metro, down on to the Baron for a bit then back onto the Metro?

Also, how is the wait shorter if you go through the flight school?

Cheers!

I had just been given the "all out" signal to begin the launch of the glider that was connected to the back of my Citabria. Just as I had added full power, I noticed that I had left the window open. However, instead of bringing the power to idle and shutting the window and resuming, or, just ignorin...

Perimeter is quite possibly the best flight training unit in the country, bottom line.

I have a question about training time requirements toward a commercial license. Transport states that an applicant for a commerical license will have no less than 200 hours including no less than 100 hours of command time. In addition, for the commerical training portion, the requirements state that...

How long are the INRAT, IATRA, and ATPL exams good for while you work toward the full requirments for that license/rating?

I think its two years but can anyone confirm?

PA-25-235 Pawnee

I was just wondering if someone could clairify/confirm this. For a privately registered airplane involved in a non-commercial operation, the maintenance schedule is as follows: An annual inspection every 12 months OR every 100 hours of air time, whichever comes first. Is this the reg, or am I mistak...

I can see the arguement saying that we should can subsidized programs like at sault or confed, but don't think for a second its any cheaper. Most of the students who go to those schools come from out of town and therefore don't live for nothing with mommy and daddy and don't have a hot meal preped f...

Anyone have any first hand knowledge on this subject, I'm thinking of making a switch and need some input.

For the record its from David Clark H10-13XL to Lightspeed 3G.

Any thoughts?

Looking through a previous thread prompted me to do some research, and I found something that might be of interest to everybody out there.

Cheers

Just wondering what everyone's thoughts are on this. I've been towing at a gliding club this summer on a PA-25-235 and a 7GCBC. I'm curious as to what the opinions are out there as to wheather this is good as just ink in my logbook, or is it something that is looked upon favourably, if at all, by em...

cpt sweet'njuicy, now thats an ATC story... jokes...

I've got a question about submitting your first resume to employers. Is it a good idea to send out resumes to companies with qualifications listed that you don't have at that moment but will have on or before the proposed date of hiring? I know what some of you are thinking... but take this for exam...

Anyone know anything about these guys?
