Is your aircraft commercially registered and are you running a commercial air service?
I hope so.

Heck they should have replaced the damn things with 380's...or why not a couple of 208's???

I totally agree with sky's the limit in regards steps that need to be taken in regards to safety and prevention: "Effective communication, teamwork, and ATTITUDE have everything t...

This is all over the News now here in Moncton. Just heard an interview with the school principle/ceo and he states that this shut down was not mandated by Transport Canada, but completely voluntary. The news radio station I listened to went into pretty good detail. Almost sounds like they read the i...

Yes the shut down does suck for the people at MFC.
But as mentioned earlier at least the school did it, most others might have not done anything.

Hopefully it will not last too long.

I wish you luck Garrett. Must not be an easy time for you.

I hope the Durham guy did not require 12 hours of brain surgery to remove parts of his/her chipped skull.
Also to confirm the newspaper report is correct, the TSB is allowing MFC to conduct the investigation.

Pilot bounced on landing & initiated a balked landing.
Applied full power in a nose down attitude and hit the ground hard nose first.

Damn!

Cost of fuel is not an issue.

I'd love to be able to communicate with fellow owners & pilots about owner related topics... What does ev...

Thanks for all the tips.

Good topic.

A great source for importing and buying aircraft is the COPA guide which is available as a downloadable PDF for free if you are a member.

What does your rant have to do with Carl Mallard? If you don't like your job QUIT!!! If you don't like your pay FIND ANOTHER JOB!! Everybody is bitching about employers who exploit their pilots and pay low wages with shitty conditions. Well guys, in general, except for a few companies, we are all be...

I understand you can print trip kits which include a flight plan log, VFR or IFR enroute navigation charts, SIDS/STARS, weight & balance, cost reports, etc.

If these charts are current can they be used as opposed to Nav Can Charts?

Hi There, I am interested in purchasing Jeppesen Flite Star IFR. Does anyone here us it and have any feedback on the software? Can one legally use this software legal in Canada for VFR/IFR flight planning and navigation? I think I would need to carry current paper VFR and/or IFR charts/plates to be ...

Interesting.

Thanks for the reply teacher...
