This could have easily gotten far worse.

Apparently the there is a global pandemic on the go right now. That beach is pretty empty these days.

They hit a pole and if that's the only damage then good for them.

I think it's an Archer, not a Warrior...i only say that because it says Archer II on the cowling.

Geez, I wish people would post the dates of the crash in their subject lines when they post. I saw this today and my heart skipped a beat thinking it just happened.

The date’s right there under the title on the forum index page.

Yeah the small, much less noticeable print

Looks like they missed the runway and touched down in the grass. As they crossed the taxi way it looks as tho the front wheel/strut collapses and then they go to the left where they strut hits the runway edge and a$$ over head it goes. I just watched it in super slow motion. The nose gear was never...

Is there an official document on what NavCanada's future (or previous) plans are? No. Yes, there is. https://www.navcanada.ca/EN/products-and-services/pages/level-of-service-completed-studies.aspx Fourth one down on that page. In the document that the link opens are links to both the terms of refer...

Your link goes to a pay site and I can't read the article.

I wonder how soon it will be cleared to fly in Canada. The NOTAM is still running: (H0083/19 NOTAMR H0046/19 A) CZUL CZQM CZQX B) 1910111527 C) PERM E) PURSUANT TO SECTION 5.1 OF THE AERONAUTICS ACT, THE MINISTER OF TRANSPORT IS OF THE OPINION IT IS NECESSARY FOR THE PROTECTION OF AVIATION SAFETY AN...

CBC news story about it:

Maybe it's just me but the fact that the system has a history of failure seems a little unnerving.

The Arrow's nose gear extends forward against the airflow. I'm not sure that the wind helps it. I think that big spring is what pulls it into the locked position.

Final report is out: https://tsb.gc.ca/eng/rapports-reports/aviation/2020/A20O0053/A20O0053.html The see-and-avoid principle is the basic method of collision avoidance for VFR flights that is based on active scanning, and the ability to detect conflicting aircraft and take appropriate measures to av...

Honest question. If Boeing had not tried to synthetically make the MAX fly like the other NG 737s (common type) with MCAS, would it have been a safe design? Assuming of course there would be the obligatory proper training required for a type rating on this fictitious non-MCAS version.

I understand TORA + Clearway = TODA. It just seems TODA is 17250' that's almost 6000' longer than the actual runway length. Just curious is it because 08 end has nothing but ocean(considering the water is the clearway) And what's the TODA like before the NOTAM? TODA is the takeoff runway available ...

TODA is the takeoff runway available (TORA) plus the clearway. The clearway in this case is half the runway length. The NOTAM is actually correct.

Thanks "linecrew", you've made me realize the error of my ways - and I feel shame. I will no longer expect pilots to look out the windows while taxiing and make sure they aren't going to hit anything with their aircraft. If you happened to be the guy marshalling him I hope you gave him a ...

My point is that had they included a quick look around 360 in their pre-takeoff checks routine, like I do here, then they would have likely seen me. My point is, that this is extremely unlikely. If he can't see you while he is taxiing straight towards you (while backtracking), what makes you think ...

I would like to share a personal experience...and here is why at my home airport I do a quick 360.... Do you think those pilots on the ground that missed you on short final would have spot you in a downwind position, which every plane flies at a different distance and sometimes at a different altit...

I would like to share a personal experience...and here is why at my home airport I do a quick 360. Location is an ATF airport which has one runway and single taxiway from the rather large apron to the middle of the 4000 foot long runway thus making you have to always backtrack in either direction fo...

I support you Gilles. Keep fighting the good fight. If I was not on the west coast I would be there. And to the last post, there is so much wrong with what the troll wrote, no point acknowledging it. Good luck! I would like to see a fair counter to the post though. I can see validity to both sides ...
