I may be uniquely qualified to discuss the job opening in Winnipeg. I sat in that seat for the last 15 years and recently retired. For those who seek the job -- It is truly one of the best. The Winnipeg crew from groomers to maintainers thru pilots are an excellent bunch. The passengers you will bec...

We have been doing this for years. 2 weeks on, 1 week off. It is CARs compliant and is good quality of life. Requires flexibility to cover training and other sundry day off requests.

Hi Old N I have been operating in the corporate world for over 40 years. I am a training captain on what most would say is heavy corporate iron. Here are a few things I have learned along the way. Resumes are far less important to Corporate operators than to the airlines. Pilot skills can be taught ...

Google the rest of the story, it took a few twists along the way.
Barry was with TC in the late 70's. I did a ride with him. Nice guy.

L.A. International airport. Susanne Ray. B707 or B747 in the re-released version

7 April, 1961. Canadian Air Force North Star. Trenton Ontario to Germany. I was 7. We turned back about 3 or 4 hours into the flight. The U.S.A. had just invaded Cuba (Bay of Pigs). We stayed in Trenton for about a week wondering if WW3 was about to start. It did't, so my second flight to Germany wa...

Beech was once successfully sued when one of their airplanes tried to take off with only a couple of gallons of fuel in the tanks. Obviously the flight ended at the end of the runway but the courts ruled Beechcraft was at fault for for not telling the pilot he needed fuel to fly. FAA made them put a...

Can I apply? I am 21 and just finished my log book. I now have 6000 hours on a Lear.

I renewed my passport a few months ago here in YWG. I was in line at 1000hrs, waited no more than 30 minutes. When I got home around 1600 there was a message on my machine to come collect my new one!! Valid for ten years. I paid the higher price and told them I was on days off until I got the new on...

I am not a big supporter of the new color. The blue does not reflect Canada's official colors. Of much bigger concern is how the media is portraying this as a $50000.00 paint job. Anybody who has painted any aircraft in the last few years knows that amount does not pass the smell test. It might refl...

From the new simplified tax form in Manitoba: line 1 = How much did you make. Line 2 = Submit the amount stated in line 1.

The most restrictive rules apply to all. Ie 705 trumps 702.

Cut and paste from CAR 101. "air time" - means, with respect to keeping technical records, the time from the moment an aircraft leaves the surface until it comes into contact with the surface at the next point of landing; (temps dans les airs) If the wheels do not leave the ground you have not gone ...

I fly out of YWG. Last year I renewed my passport in person downtown. I explained that I could not fly (work)without it. Paid the extra $ for quick service. I had my new passport in hand at 0900 on the second day. Most of my trips are international but I did not miss a day of work. Bitch about civil...

NCR is probably National Capitol Region

102.01These Regulations do not apply in respect of: (a) military aircraft of Her Majesty in right of Canada when they are being manoeuvred under the authority of the Minister of National Defence Military pilots are not required to follow the CAR's. They do so only as a good public relations gesture....

Can you kill on demand? Can you die on command? That is all your country will require of you. When you try to get a civilian job you will need to find a company with ex military pilots because the rest will not like your skill set. Check the eye surgery thing very carefully. I know more guys who hav...

CF-ATR. AA1. Sept 2, 1971. Best day of my carreer

I think restaurants should let them in. They just need to abide by the new gudelines:) 1) All TSA agents that have been pre-identified must wait in line outside the restaurant for a minimum of 20 minutes while the wait staff share private jokes (best if in another language). 2) after entry into the ...

We have been using the A20s for a month now. They are quieter than the X's they replaced. I love every thing about them. Comfortable even after several hours with better sound.
