Thank you for your pointer there. A different flight examiner asked me all sort of ASDA, take off distance, landing distance, etc. during my multi test 2 weeks ago. So, the flight examiner will typically not ask about the cold temperature corrections and onward from the CAPGEN? ....which brings me t...

Probably not an emergency since I still have HSI, ILS, and DME which are totally independent of the GPS. I just have to disengage the "slave mode". I overheard someone said something about the flight examiner asked for the emergency procedures in case of GPS malfunction en route. I just need firm an...

A full disclaimer: ***I am trying to get my mindset in the IFR flight test.*** Perhaps people who have done it before can provide any useful feedback. What are the typical flight planning (ground items) tricky questions that flight examiners will ask? (aside from the weight and balance, take off dis...

Folks; ======================================= With the assumptions that: *The INRAT is completed. *The Multi engine rating acquired. *No weather delay. *Instructors available. *A multi engine aircraft available. *Fly twice a day (simulation + actual) *I have mediocre intelligence. =================...

I am still curious though how they can afford the maintenance of those multi engine IFR aircrafts. They must have written off things or two deductions with CRA. Most FTUs are barely able to keep up their PA34/PA44 maintenance. Yet, these people can offer descent MEIFR trainings with well maintained ...

Without naming names, I met several freelance instructors who owned and trained with their multi engines. The premises are better experiences and cheaper. I must say their multi engine aircrafts look very clean and well maintained. Off course I wouldn't ask the aforementioned question in person. Hen...

For those freelance instructors who own their own aircrafts and use them to train students (aside from personal usages), how do you deal with CRA such as what to write off, how much to write off, etc.? Since information can be very sensitive, please feel free to PM. :smt014 Thank you for the insight...

Speaking about aircraft characteristics/curiosity, how hard is it to transition from Seminole to Seneca (aside from the Johnson bar flap to the electric flap)?
Thank you, folks...

Folks,
Has anyone done any training with Sea Land Air Flight Centre at CZBB?
Got any feedback?
I am looking for a multi engine IFR training here.
I am not an international student.

Thank You

When you said harder, which parts/sections were harder?
Or more like, which parts/sections do I have to pay special attention?
I maybe strong in the navigation (VOR,ADF, etc.) and math (distance, speed, fuel consumption, etc.) but lousy on the theory.

Spokes wrote:CPL definitely harder. INRAT was a breeze.

Folks,
I passed the INRAT. It wasn't that bad.
Is the CPL written exam harder?
Any thought/comment/feedback/critics?

Thank you in advance.

I think it's luck of the draw as far as questions. I knew of someone who got all HSI questions and no GPS. Which LO chart region did you get as far as questions? It will be sad if I fail the GPS parts when I work on the majority of GPS database interfaces. I just wrote the INRAT a few weeks back, an...

....just out of curiosity, what are sort of RMI related questions that typically appear on INRAT? I went through the Aerocourse practice exam, and other prominent exam materials and I haven't seen anything trivial. Thank you for your help folks. No, I am not looking for any shortcut. I just want to ...

Sad to hear that. Usually aircraft financing/leasing is such a niche market and people tend not to move a lot. Thank you for the info, geneticistx...... By the way, has anyone here ever dealt with Aviation Unlimited in Oshawa? Perhaps, fellow forum members can share their experiences. Thank you all ...

Do you guys know any lender (preferably with good financing rates) out there?
I have all covered but then I need to shell out $$$$ for engine upgrades.
Thank You

Yes, I incline to do just that. I've got my eye on a used DA42 with a low time but unfortunately, I will have to fork $$$$ to upgrade the engines to Continental 2.0 soon rather than later. I am still number crunching on all costs. Do you folks have any preference on insurance and mechanics? I am bas...

Got it. I glanced at that CAR 103 Appendix A Schedule II before. I must have missed that section :( . I have the same notion about that GA special interest organization. ======================================================================================================= It brings me to the next q...

It somewhat applies to me. I have my CPL. I am working on my multi and IFR. I couldn't find anywhere of CARs violations and five times higher infractions. Did I miss something? Does COPA provide legal services for its members regarding those CARs violations? Thank You I don't know if this applies to...

Folks, I have to deviate this subject a bit and I apologize in advance. I know many people in the states form corporations or Limited Liability Company (LLC) to register their aircraft for training, personal usages, and business usages and also to minimize any liability/damage risk (aircraft clippin...

That ICAO OR TC English Prof Test.

ICAO OR TC English Prof test?

Although English is my mother tongue.....
I got 4 out of 6 because I stuttered. Is that normal?
Do I have to see a speech therapist to fly now?

More questions here. In my circumstances, the CFI and the administrative lady are still away on holiday until next week and I haven't signed/paid the CPL paperworks (due to my day job hectic schedule), etc,. etc. Off course during the winter months, I have to also consider the weather for cross coun...

CARS 421.30.4 states that for CPL, (a) An applicant for a commercial pilot licence — aeroplane shall (amended 2006/12/14; previous version) (i) have completed, subject to paragraph (b), a minimum of 200 hours flight time in aeroplanes, of which a minimum of 100 hours shall be pilot-in-command time i...

Thank you very much for the clear and concise feedback here. This is what I am looking for to demystify the IFR flight test as a whole. My concern is somewhat similar. I am more proficient in the GPS realm (G1000/G3000) than the steam gauges. Out of curiosity, what GPS did you use and what sort of a...

Weather wise, is June also favorable at CYXU or CYQB?
I am new to Ontario/Quebec area.
Thank You.
