Of which year?

Any Updates???????

DC3 type rating did it for my AA's. th exams remaind valid after the two year mark.

For our aviation documents we use an app called "Aviation Docs". Seems to work well. Some of us at have used the ForeFlight app as well, and we were all very pleased with it. However, as I stated earlier, to me it seems that everything we were doing on ForeFlight is being done for free on FltPlan. ...

Looking for between 5-10 hours of single block time to finish up my ATPL.

Im a commercially licensed pilot with a valid group 1 instrument rating.

Does anyone know if they will look at guys who have the IATRA or the exams written but don't quite have the required time for the AA?

Is it the one parked in front of the Viking hangar in YYC?

Could be. There are two painted the same. EAI and EAJ.

As well, Canadian scientists will soon be back camped on the ice north of Ellesmere Island to take painstaking measurements of one of the last unknown parts of the planet.

Funny thing is KBAL;s other "turbo DC3" is putting in this camp too.

about 30 minutes before landing with seatbelt signs turned on, when the airplane encountered severe turbulence and suddenly departed its assigned altitude of 15000 feet. A number of passengers, who had not fastened their seatbelts, were thrown out of their seats and hit the ceiling. I bet some moro...

Otter pilots have comfortable shoes...they're called SORELS!! Cheers, ETTW Not quite true. Most Borek otter pilots don't know what any type of footwear is except the occasional sandals. 8) Oh really??? I would think your toes would be a little cold wearing sandals in places like YFB YRB YRT YEV or ...

I have the 10-13xl i believe. Much much much much better.

The only thing really amazing about this is that some pilot would take an airplane they don't own worth $2,000,000.00 plus dollars and do that in he middle of no ware so some one else could video his or her great piloting skills. :prayer: Way to go boys and gals i hope some one some day takes some ...

Agreed

Ummm We at borek dont build wings....... We apply a life extension STC to old time ex'd ones.

Then how are people getting away with it if its illegal and you have departed under the above scenario?

It is an ATC question if the controllers in YUL are issueing the clearance to an AC with no alternate on a VFR flight plan

Question for the ATC boys and girls and the seasoned IFR drivers out there. Scenerio is you depart somewhere on a 3 hour leg. Weather at destination is forcasted VFR for the duration of the flight and the ETA. Enroute the weather at destination deteriorates below VFR mins. You are carrying VFR legal...
