Re: Overseas for RAIC

One more side of it, wondering if anyone's had this situation.. I traveled for approx 9.5 months through Central & South America. Longest I stayed in one spot was 4 nights, typically only 1 or 2.

Northern Waterworks had a C210 out of Red Lake. Superior would be the guys to call to arrange.

Re: Kississing Captain Ad

3 straight BE10's running (NCA's old machines), 1 down in CJB3, no BE20's. Layoffs mainly due to being a float operator, also King Air a year ago. As mentioned, typical Northern MB work; prisoner transfers, court dates, hydro crews, other random charters. CE is a good guy to work for. Like any compa...

Re: How many people travel with no luggage?

Just did 2 weeks in Eastern Europe & Turkey with a small backpack. Had it for 13 years, used it in high school.

Re: new rules to overlay approaches ?

Other VOR, NDB or ILS approaches will show up in Garmin databases without the GNSS designator. These may be used as reference only, and the underlyin...

Historical exam results

I've been searching, but cannot seem to find a link. I'm currently in the process of filling out the ATPL application form. It requires the dates of when the SAMRA, SARON, & INRAT exams were written, and I can't seem to find my paper copies. I believe this information is online, anyone have a refere...
