Mapleflt,

Thanks.
Its been a long time since I used one of those. Someone mentioned that formula in one of those "There I was" BS sessions that Old guys have. I had never heard of it before, neat trick.

Does this Formula work?

Suns True Bearing= (15 × GMT (in decimals))- West Longitude(in decimals)
Thanks for the Feedback.

Are there any FAA CFI holders in Northern Alberta or in the Northwest Territories?

Thanks much,

So Marty is still around?

Where is Rick?

It has been along time since I was at Peninsulair, Old Bill T. gave me my first flying job back in 89' as a brand new instructor.

The good old days.

Could it be the same guy that was called the "Phantom" from CYHM years ago. Would steal an airplane and then leave it on the button of a runway to be found in the morning? Back then the tower was closed at night.

Admittedly not too familiar with the types of operations these aircraft have historically been tasked with. What do you see as the next replacement for these aircraft types? Without jumping up in PAX capacity significantly.

Your thoughts are most appreciated!!!

Aviation in itself is not inherently dangerous. But to an even greater degree than the sea, it is terribly unforgiving of any carelessness, incapacity or neglect.

I almost forgot my favorite one:

The problem with ice, is it tends to melt in the post crash fire!!

Ice is only good in a glass (with your favorite beverage)

Let us all lighten up, please. I think allot of the "Stupid Sayings" are funny or at least rate a grin. We shouldn't take ourselves or our chosen Vocation so seriously!!

To all that have been "around the patch" more than once. What have your experiences been with Airline Cadet/Aviation College prodigies? What do you think will be the outcome once these pilots have their number come up and they slide over to the left seat and they have to deal with the real airplane ...

Thanks guys for the info, I really had no idea. I have been overseas for years and always living out of a suitcase moving from hotel to the next. I want to kind of slow down in regards of always going from one country to the next, ("If it's Tuesday, it must be Belgium" or in my case, Afghanistan). T...

Sorry if this is a redundant question but what is industry standard (Low to High) wages for a DHC-3Turbine Float Pilot. (Central, Northern Canada)?

All input is greatly appreciated.

Nearing the end of 2010 with all of the accumulated, documented scientific data of contamination and its adverse effects on flying surfaces and the anectdotal evidence in ice related crashes, I am astounded that this conversation is even taking place. Quite frankly, it is concerning. Just remember:"...

Panama Jack; When did become no longer possible for a Canadian residing in Canada not to be able to own an "N" numbered aircraft and fly it with an FAA License? I have been working as an expat for over 15 years but back in the 90's this most certainly was possible. All you needed was a US registrati...
