$1450 pm I'm looking to rent out our very nice condo in Whiterock to a pilot or flight attendant, I have been living here with my wife and commuting to CYVR to fly for quite a while. (On average its a 45 min journey can be shorter can be longer). Good public transport available to CYVR. I am now fly...

Thanks for all the help will certainly follow up on the leads you have given me, I have Beaver/Cessna piston and turbine float time, and C185, and some cub time on wheels and own a little tail dragger. Pretty handy with the tools, work in the hanger in the off season. Will try to get in with someone...

Hi all, I have done a bit of searching on here, just trying to find some information on Hunting and fishing outfitters that operate their own aircraft. Found a few fishing camps with float machines but really fancy a tail wheel machine flying hunters about next season. If anyone has any info or has ...

Thanks for taking the time Airframe, have sent you a pm.

Oh may consider a share of a machine in the future if it was the right set up.

Hi, looking to rent a small tailwheel machine just for fun, maybe a bit of mountain flying, land on the odd beach etc. I am a commercial pilot with tailwheel/float experience and some off airport time, know how to look after a machine as I have quite a bit of wrench time in the hanger. Will consider...

Hi, I have a brand new, never used Gentex SPH 5 xl flying helmet for sale, $1550 obo, based in Calgary, can post anywhere at your expense. Message me and I will reply quickly with a phone number so we can chat. Can't get pictures on here due to file size, very happy to send photos via email. cheers ...

Thanks all its the small things when you move to a country that can be the hardest to work out.

Yeah I can't for the life of me remember what I had before but it was very expensive when I crossed into another province!

Hi, I was over in CA a few months ago and did not really get to the bottom of this, what would the best cell phone service/deal be that can be used country wide with the least expense I guess. I could be anywhere in the country and don't know what you would all suggest, I will more than likely base ...

Hey mate, if you check my other posts you will see I am not from Canada, but the advice I can give is from my personal experience. I have been in a few countries working, when I got my cpl a few years back I was lucky that I was older and therefore understood a little better how managers/cp's hired....

Thanks for that Digits,

Just checking out the link, my sister has lived in Calgary for years so can use her address but getting a good deal on a phone is the way forward.

Thanks for the replies guys, no I have not converted just yet, getting held up abroad, things out of my control. Definitely prepared to work really hard, should arrive in to Vancouver in a month, not the plan but out of my control so really my license could be a long way away! However if it means I ...

Thanks for all the input, sounds like with the right AP and flying school and the wind behind you you may get some sort of validation/temp approval, but it is what it is, I can only ask, fill in the right forms and cross my fingers I guess. Cheers

Thanks mate appreciate the help.

Anyone offer any advice, I would be most appreciative. I certainly have helped a few Canadians out whilst in my part of the world and trying to find their feet.

Thanks for your reply, I will try very hard to get a temp but if it's a no go then a bit of a holiday is in order to meet some operators and do some fishing.

Thanks for that, my mate has only just had a temp license issued whilst going through that process recently but it was a heli cpl, would not think there was much difference. No problem what happens happens, just seeing if I can speed the process, thanks for the replies.

CS,

Sorry a bit confused by the three letter abbreviations, new to this part of the world. Cheers

This is why I asked, I have not submitted it yet as I am not in country, so I can pay $40 to get a temp license? If that is the case then problem solved. I have emailed them and tried to get them on the phone but its pretty hard to get a straight answer.

Thanks for your help

Hi all, Just read allot of old posts about road trips etc, I am new to the country and a float driver with a little under 2000tt and 600 float, 350hrs DHC2, 200hrs C208 and a little C182 time. I'm late thirties and have no plans to leave GA so looking for good operators to hopefully do year round fl...

Hi does anyone know which flying schools can issue a temporary cpl or permit to fly commercially whilst my foreign license gets processed at TC. A friend has been through the process but is a Helicopter driver so his school cannot help, preferably a school in BC or Alberta. I understand it can take ...
