Overall, it seems that eight aircraft are affected, with all being immediately pulled from ser...

The other thing that really scared me was that -if I read it correctly- the FADEC can overwrite the throttle position and stay at IDLE power when full power is requested by the pilots?? Not really the root cause of the accident, but wondering if that's a common thing? I'd hope pilots would be able ...

So the people that, with a bit of penny pinching, have been able to survive on CEWS are now going to also have to find, in addition to the CEWS, at least part time jobs. Taking those same jobs from the people who are trying to come off the CERB. Yeah this makes perfect sense. It's essentially repla...

Unless they already have a 705 AOC/in the works it won't happen anytime soon. It's a 6 month process at the best of times and TC inspectors are still working from home and haven't been on site since COVID started. The CFPA and PSAC will make sure it takes awhile for that to happen.

Bloodvein is an extra sh###y runway for mud even when compared to northern MB and NWO. Lots of stuck planes and I've been surprised more than once. The east shore of Lake WInnipeg is a giant beach

Air Georgian 2.0 will come to the rescue! Air Georgian 1.0 was a disaster also. They did well with the 1900's but once they went RJ it was all down hill. They took all their good 1900 AME's for the RJ and the 1900's went down hill fast. Sad times out east. The 1900D's got old (+20 years & lots of c...

That NoSocks guy certainly isn’t me. I know that...because I’m him. My buddy (who is very active in this forum) looped me in ( I won’t out him because you’ll probably treat him like a Swoop pilot - I mean, a WS pilot is friends with a noted WS pilot hater...it’s the stuff of nightmares right?). Alt...

I've been on the weekly TC COVID calls and the chief medical officer has confirmed if a test like ECG is routine and as per the regs (age based, etc) and not due to a medical condition then it's not required at this time. The attestation is sufficient

162 out of 4499#. These layoffs were supposed to happen before the 1st cews announcement. It was then delayed until June 30 th due to that. 30 days prior notice so the 162 most juniors got the call yesterday. Up to max 600 layoffs until Sep 30th. That's it based on the business drop? Not that I wan...

How many layoff notices went out late last week?

If TC Cabin safety doesn't approve the extension and there hasn't been a global exemption then on April 1, 2020 the applicable people are expired. If Swoop had the ability to provide the training online then they could use that option as long as it was approved. The cops had no right as the "essenti...

Whoopty do....I'm going to go out and give an opinion of reason here. This does NOTHING for the airline itself, and it only put a bigger financial burden on the federal coffers in the end. I'd rather see the government give a check to the businesses themselves....or grants....or loans....or whateve...

Transport is already working on the detail sand will have more out shortly. They (POI) can already give extensions on a case by case basis using the existing regs.

A 2 year PPC isn't an option for 703. TC killed that. For 704 Ops you need to do "training in lieu" at 12 months.

Climbing in vertical speed mode. Should have used flight level change which would have held an airspeed or Mach. They got up to 410 on momentum, and were stuck on the back side of the power curve that the engines alone had no way of accelerating out of. The plane stalled, and was stalled repeatedly...

Skyregional cancelled gs last minute and I know of at least one pilot that is out of work because had already resigned and had left the property.

Off the side, barely outside the lights, couldn’t have been going very fast. “Crash” is a big overstatement. They towed it out of the snowbank once they had a towbar I’ve been told. Runway was closed for 3 hrs.

Passenger released from hospital a couple hrs later, got a few stitches I heard.

Type 4 approval (like a Dash 8, 1900, ATR) would be nice but please where up north is Type 4 even available????? Ummmmm. Nowhere :roll: Good luck getting a truck up north that can do it and maintain the quality and environmental control needed for Type 4 fluid but you knew that right? The sampling (...

They're up to 8-10 Dash 8's now so evolution is happening. There has been a 19 seat airplane built in 15 years and nothing pressurized is on the radar. A fast twin otter by Cessna built for fedex 1st and people 2nd (sounds like the caravan) is all there is coming down the pipe and it's using 80's er...

He clearly wasn't an optimist if thought he'd be there long enough to plow the land, grow enough wheat to make flour and make cookies
