Tips Wanted: Moving to Australia as a low time CPL
Hello, I am nearing the completion of my CPL, with ~180TT. I am planning to obtain my IFR and Multi soon, then I'd like to join my significant other in Australia. Should I try and get my first job here or in Australia? Does anyone have any experience flying in Australia? What is the market like for ...

Re: Flying into Vancouver
I fly a C172 into YVR somewhat frequently. The controllers are friendly most of the time. Tips: - Make sure to check NOTAMs for any VFR restrictions. This is more of a problem in the summer, but they have traffic flow restrictions sometimes. You will learn your lesson when they tell you can't land t...

Re: SPOT Gen 3 50% rebate Dec 2017
If you are like me you can save even more money by never buying one. I have saved thousands of dollars since they came out by not having one. I have saved millions of dollars not buying airplanes, Lamborghinis and real estate. I hear you brother, it ain't easy when you're broke! :roll: Btw, which G...

Nevermind, I found it. You need to buy the $200/Yr subscription to Spot to get the device 50% off.

Hey!
It doesn't seem to be 50% off? Am I missing something? Would be cool if it was!

Re: Tofino CYAZ Taxiway F
Nice that they have rental cars now. Yeah, if you don't mind paying $100/day or $460/week in low season. It's either that or $50 one way using the only cab in town... I would take a rental, that way you can hit up all the good spots you want on the coast. Call ahead because they don't man the desks...

Re: "Weak aviation oversight making skies less safe: Opinion"
It is basically a wholesale transfer of responsibility from the government to industry, thereby reducing the need for government to provide resources, human or otherwise. Imagine how much an army of inspectors would cost to police the entire country. Now, all you need is a skeleton crew to look at ...

Re: Headsets- lightspeed tango
Hey! I have the Tango and I've been very happy with it. I haven't had any interference with the Bluetooth, and I really enjoy the lack of cables. They are a bit heavier than normal headsets, but it hasn't really bothered me. If the Bluetooth fails, there is a built in cable that you can connect and ...

Re: Interim Order Respecting the Use of Model Aircraft (Drones)
I was initially pissed off at this and it solidifies my dislike for Garneau and all of the other ministers who come in to their posts and make uneducated changes for media glory. They can all go pound sand. Actually, I thought Garneau should have been better for the aviation/space sector given his ...

So basically you can't fly them anywhere...
Also, how are they going to enforce this?

Ok so I find myself in a bit of a bind here, I was hoping to get some advice. So I am in Calgary, and educated as a mechanical engineer. I was in oil & gas before things hit the fan. I have 3 years experience which basically means nobody will hire me as I am not a "professional engineer." I didn't l...
