Depends where the plane is registered. There are tax shelter spots that accept a canadian licence where many european aircraft are registered. But the right to work in EU is a totally different thing.

We hope to return to YYZ at some point, but in the smaller Toronto-West Coast markets we were not able to stimulate demand as quickly as we would have liked. Cough, cough, cough, bullsh!t, cough, cough, cough. Lifted from Wikipedia: U.S. Census estimates released in 2008 indicated that there were 1...

So whats the scoop on the Challenger pilot they are advertising for? Do they have it yet and what are they going to pay?

You won't notice any difference unless there is a change to the lens as well. If you see some ricer cars that have added them aftermarket and you get the crazy glare and it is because the are using lenses made for regular lights. You often get worse light output by switch to HIDs and not upgrading t...

Pretty sure it is in front of Delta's hangar. My friend who flies for Delta called me a couple days ago asking about who EnerJet was and said one of there planes was parked at his hangar in Atlanta.

The cardinal is a sweet little plane. I flew a fixed gear version with 180hp and they are a lot faster than a 172. They are also really light on the controls. You could crank steep turns with just a finger on the controls. Great plane for low level surveillance

Steam time isn't bad. I am on my first jet now and I left the glass and FMS of my King Air behind for the steam of my Citation. Honestly once you get over the initial learning curve of the glass it is way easier than steam.

I worked there, Airborne, for a long time and still have lots of friends there. It is happening but not finalized yet. Like any deal it could still go south. But for any crews at Noralta that would go with the move, if that is whats happening, you are going to a very good company. I have nothing but...

Could a landing aircraft not wave the 200ft rule for another aircraft. I can't count how many times I have been told there are mowers/construction or other stuff within the 200ft and then asked by tower/fss is this is alright or do I want them moved. And I have never heard any one asking for it to b...

I think US Airways is the closest to going under. I read an article in one newspaper, can't remember which on, last time I was south of the border and they said US Airways was the closest to bankruptcy. They have started charging for everything lately. You want any drink it will cost you $2. You wan...

Thanks for the info. Great help just wish they would give you a phone number or e-mail address instead of using snail mail. Going to search the Nav Canada website but it seems to be down right now.

Our company is looking at switching from registrations to call signs and not sure how to do this. Made a couple of calls but haven't got anywhere yet. Anyone know how? Thx for the help.

Cheers,

No word on if the pilots are part of the 270? I have a few friends that just went and would to see them out of a job already.

I spent my first 2000 or so hours low level on pipeline patrols and wildlife surveys(hence my handle). We generally did the pipeline patrols around 300ft. But there were times when we had to go lower to get a look at something or the survey required it. Anyone considering flying below 500 better kno...

Subarus are awesome. I have had my WRX now for 3 years and don't think I will be buying any other brand for a long time. In the fall we will be buying the wife a new turbo forester. Go subaru all the way you won't be disapointed.

Edit* Plus the AWD of the Subaru is far far superior.

I get about $750 a month in Perdiems at Jazz. Thats the one spot they at least pay fairly well.

Is that $750 pretty average or is that one of the better months?

They can't be that high. We do trips for them and our captains are on contrail waivers. 800MPIC on an over 12,500 a/c and doing shell charters. Shell has done many audits on us and we are still flying for them.

We just got our avionics techs to wire it into the intercom so everyone can hear. A little audio-in jack on the dash and away you go.

Employment expenses for all, if you have a job and possibly tuition for ATPL stuff if you don't. Not sure about medical if you are not yet working, you can put it in medical expenses but it won't do anything unless you have a lot of medical expenses.

I totally agree that one professional pilot is better than two cowboys egging each other on. But that's comparing apples to oranges. I also agree that all single pilot certified airplanes can be operated with a very high level of safety with only one pilot. Two well trained, professional acting pil...

Ya 600 whole hours more than enough time to know the airplane. Why would you want more than that?

200hr pilot=200lbs=30mins of fuel

After flying the Van for over 600hours and have multi crew experience in other planes I would prefer the extra fuel. The Van is an awesome machine but extremely easy to fly, slow and not complex. No real need for a co-pilot.

I also choose not to do the Aerocourse, I don't need to pay hundreds of dollars for the answers. Weather Command, AIM and various other study references. Was not really that hard, I studied for around 2-3 days for each and scored in the low 80s on both. Good luck. I tell you one thing I am glad they...
