Interestingly NOAA and the UK Met office publishes aviation weather forecast charts for wide swaths of the Earth. It might have nothing to do with that but both WAFC London (UK Metoffice) and WAFC Washington (NOAA) have a worldwide mandate to fulfill requirements of the ICAO Annex 3. Therefore, it ...

Hi all, just wondering if anyone has any recent experience with airports in the NYC area. I'm not familiar with the airspace just yet (will be purchasing a chart soon) but was just looking for some headsup info or tips from anyone with experience making the journey from the Toronto area to NYC.. An...

Just forwarding this video from BALPA:

Marc n'oublie pas de nous envoyer les photos apres ton vole. Moi s est le vol que je rêve depuis des années. Fait nous rêve quand tu reviendra. Je suis rentré chez moi hier soir mais voici une petite vidéo de notre approche à Kangerlussuaq, escale entre Iqaluit et Reykjavik. http://www.youtube.com/...

Which brings me to realize I could fly in these countries without a word of Spanish. English is the international language of aviation. Except in Quebec. Weird. Just felt like a fish out of water. Is all. Listening to MMMX Approach on Live ATC, I hardly hear any English on the frequency at this tim...

Marc n'oublie pas de nous envoyer les photos apres ton vole. Moi s est le vol que je rêve depuis des années. Fait nous rêve quand tu reviendra. Bonjour Christian, J'espère que tout va bien pour toi. Pour ma part, j'utiliserai Toronto City Center comme Airport of Entry depuis les États-Unis, ça va m...

The CAA in the UK has the same references as above for "Break" and "Break Break" in their Radiotelephony Manual. It is also straight from ICAO DOC 9432/AN 925 - Manual of Radiotelephony 2.6 Standard Words and Phrases BREAK — “I hereby indicate the separation between portions of the message.” Note: ...

Ces pompes se trouvent chez la plupart des dépositaires de piéces d'auto UAP ou Canadian Tire, tu pourras l'acheter la veille de ton départ. Merci Gilles, si tu as un modèle en tête, je suis preneur, je veux pas me retrouver avec un truc qui supporte pas l'Avgas et qui se dissout dedans ;) En passa...

not 100% sure on that type but are they approved for flight into icing? Not all of them are but most turbo SR22 owners select the option because it increases usefulness of the plane year round since the Turbo model in not really economical compared to the normally aspirated bellow 10 000' feet. The...

Frac, I kinda figured you were heading across the pond as no one is really heading that direction right now in a single on wheels to play around. Sounds like you are going to try for before Christmas? Indeed, the airplane is looking for a new home in France but ferrying a single engine aircraft acr...

Salut Marc-Olivier, Le problème sempiternel est le givrage, qui est quasiment omniprésent jusqu'à janvier, sans parler des vents associés aux changements rapides de masses d'air à l'automne. Tu as long à faire au dessus de la mer glaciale et parfois déchaînée qui offre peu ou pas de chance de survi...

Salut Marc-Olivier, Essaie Pourvoirie Mirage au 819-854-5151. Le CFS indique qu'ils ont du 100LL Merci, Effectivement, j'ai appelé, 2,35 CAD le litre, une aubaine ;) Malheureusement, je n'ai pas de CFS assez récent à Paris mais je vais bien regarder mes autres options. Pour info, voici les villages...

With my set up I can put the hose and pump anywhere without too much worry about spillage. Hope this helps. Yes thank you very much for your information, I called Pourvoirie Mirage and enquired about availability of 100LL and they told me it should not be an issue. It is also a conveniently located...

Made it home Sunday evening. 1007 SM in 11hrs. Gotta hate those headwinds. Fueled in Kuujjuaq, Mirage, Matagami and home to Huntsville. Good Morning, I am planning a flight from Montreal to Iqaluit next week in a single engine piston and I was looking for 100 LL in Nunavik. I have been informed by ...

Bonjour, Je suis actuellement à Paris en train de préparer un voyage la semaine prochaine et j'ai prévu quitter Roberval pour Iqaluit. Comme c'est disons un peu juste pour l'autonomie de l'aéronef, je suis à la recherche d'un fuel stop dans le Nunavik. J'avais prévu utiliser Kuujjuaq mais Halutik Fu...

Bonjour,

Le lieu de travail est généralement mal desservi en transport en commun.

Good morning, If his instrument rating has not been expired for more than 2 years, all he needs is a ride. Even if it expired more than 2 years ago, he might not need to write INRAT. 421.49 (6) An applicant who holds a Canadian Commercial Pilot Licence or Airline Transport Pilot Licence and whose in...

Whether that is a signature at the bottom of a printout or a separate document to certify the electronic file, is my signature on my log not enough? It seems to be enough, I got my ATPL-A issued last year providing TC with an extract of my electronic logbook and my signature certifying the package ...

C'est une riche idée, pas trop loin de Montréal... Je n'y suis jamais allé, il y a un restaurant sur le terrain si je me fie à http://www.ego-airport.ca.... Tu peux nous en dire plus?

Merci,

Bonjour, Je suis de passage au Québec depuis jeudi dernier et j'ai prévu avec une amie prendre un avion à St-Hubert pour aller petit déjeuner à environ 1 heure de vol de Montréal. L'année dernière, dans la même opération on avait été a Québec (descente en ville en taxi) pour le petit déjeuner avant ...

Hi guys, If you have to enter U.S. as a crew member (pilot) of a non Canadian registered aircraft from outside Canada, do you need a Crew Member Visa even if you are a Canadian passport holder? Thanks in advance for your answer, fly safe mustang06 Disclaimer, I am not a US Immigration officier... o...

A priori la meilleure solution semble être d'aller aux Us ! Il nous faut aussi un avion en N, en plus de l'instructeur. Il y a un CFI chez Cargair. Je suis de passage au Quebec pour quelques jours mais je voulais simplement répondre à la dernière affirmation. Il n'est pas nécessaire d'avoir un avio...

the first truly NAM/Europe compatible phone for 3G but maybe I will be swayed by the Iphone Don't know, I am currently in North America and I popped in an AT&T SIM Card while in the US and a Fido SIM Card in Canada into my iPhone 3GS, I live in France and got 3G service both in North America and in...

The end of Feb? Is there a firm date? I don't know, this information is based on the LPR FAQ posted in the Aviation Safety Letter: 7. What is the cost to the pilots for obtaining the LPR endorsement on their licence? Approximately 96 percent of licence holders in Canada will receive either a French...

Recently someone was showing me the language “rating” on a newly minted ATPL. This is on the front, above all other ratings. Nothing else seemed to be different on the front. I turned it over and was surprised to see that nothing is different from the old ones on the back. It still refers to age 60...
