Re: Air Canada Accident in YHZ
Having said that, my recollection of Rwy 05 in YHZ is that it was, and still remains today a runway waiting for an accident to happen. As I recall (been retired 7 years), 05 has a hump about 1000’ down the runway and the terrain gently slopes in both directions down the runway and moreso in the opp...

Re: Boeing question with regard to icing conditions
No need for EAI on the ground if the clouds are at 5000ft. You would only require it to be on if the temp was below 10 and the vis was less than a mile.

Re: Foreign Pilots flying in Canada
While SWG "works towards equalizing" and slashes prices due their operating advantage, Tansat is being gutted. There's only so long they can continue to operate at a loss. If TS fails, Canjet would likely follow and then there would be over a hundred NG rated pilots on the market thus closing the fo...

Re: Sunwing Adds a New Twist on Foreign Pilots
Non non non,
Doing contract work in other countries is wrong remember?

Re: 1 to share cost on old school road trip

Good luck!!
