No idea how it could be accidentally set in flight - but setting the parking brake will generate an indication on the memo section of the Engine/Warning Display. It will also be indicated on the Wheel page which is displayed when the landing gear is lowered for landing. It's not part of the landing...

Like KAG said, the Scott Leather bag is great. Rather buying it from the website however (where everyone gets the 'Airline Discount') buy it from Aircraft Spruce. There is a Aircraft Spruce on Dixie in YYZ, and somewhere in YVR....elsewhere as well I'm sure. By buying the bag through them, they will...

HAHA! That was sk_pile_it? I was hired at WW to fly these unprofessionally painted airplanes, and when sk_pile_it posted this reply it made management laugh. In fact, what he wrote was copied and put up on a couple bulletin boards around the hangar to make people laugh. Glad to see you love the mana...

Was a good laugh having to tell a female controller today out of YVR that we were proceeding direct IWACK.

Anyway, it was a pretty minor event. I mean its not like he went screaming off the end of a runway like another airline I know.

Bit of a low blow Raven. Didn't know that there was a competition.

I agree with you too Tony; With speed aside and following the whole 'Safety, comfort, sched' motto, I would far rather have the extra 14,000 feet + to climb than to arrive at destination 5 minutes earlier.... They probably could, however, beat us to 25,000. Those little hats the fa's have too are un...

Too bad the EMJ and bus will be stuck at ridiculous city pairing cost index's. Meanwhile porter is whizzing past us on the barber pole.

I'd give advantage Q400 on those short hops.

While moving from YXE out to Toronto, my mover presented me with a box that looked unfamiliar. Once he was away I took a quick look inside only to find a brand new 19" flatscreen tv / computer monitor. Very nice gift from a very nice moving company. I probably lost something in the move, but still c...

The same one that could drink the 26 of 151 and not get drunk?

The lucky Rabbit indeed. It's too bad that most those crews wouldn't even know about it. Right now that little plane is calling the pronto chant.


Team Pronto, UNITE!

Do those p.o.s. garretts even work at that temp? Sounds like Pratt country to me.

I have counted glider through all my resumes and it has been represented through all levels of flying from turbo prop to now airlines.

Insurance usually seperates flight time between fixed wing and rotary. Glider time teaches many transferrable skills, so count it.

Looks like they have a splash page up now - http://www.naatgroup.com/ The address is 770 McTavish Rd, Calgary. Ross Brown, from Altitude Consulting seems to be involved. You can read more about him here - http://www.altitudeconsulting.ca/ross_brown.html. Don't forget about Matthias Morel, the real ...

Maybe she thought you were going to throw a full pack of Mentos into your cola? Now thats a bad ass weapon.

Just do us suckers stuck working over the holidays a favor.... please park in the nosebleeds while your away for a while.



Happy holidays

(only type of flying you are legally allowed to sleep while on duty). Actually you can sleep as a crew member up front on the narrow body fleet as well.... While only using the correct technique of course. Many 703/704 operators now even have a 'rest under supervision' program that is in place. Sle...

You know what app? Now that you mention that soap ad, i seem to remember a photo shoot in that Prince Albert park near the airport 2 summers ago.

Not a bad deal for him.... Fly an all nice airplane a couple days a week and do some modeling on the side. Perhaps the new face of Transwest Air.

Depends what airplane your wanting.

I heard that one of their newest Saab captains, a smaller blond guy who wears Prada sunglasses is a model in his spare time..... is this true?

Why you got to be so mean mr. App?

Just trying to help out a fellow aviator as i once did for you.

You piss yourself on a couch recently after a good night of partying?

lets hear it.

"why the hard landing?...."

Because newspapers are never wrong.

..Also resulting in a gear fire sans brake fire.

Martin,


How about the 80 or so new hires that were to be reviewed during the meeting in Winnipeg? We in luck?

..:

Not only was it once, but several times! Or the time the volvo tried to ford the river and got stuck..... good thing the company had a 4x4!

I miss that stuff bad man.

Tow Gliders... no need for the CPL either. Most glider outfits don't have insurance for a rear-seat passenger and with your 'passengers' being in a seperate sky vehicle, your all good with the PPL. Kinda a grey area that im sure can be argued either way. If your after time building and dont have any...

I feel bad for the poor guy sitting right seat. They did a good job of the situation, and when trying to exit in a calm fashion bails. Nothing like doing a good job on the hard end of things, then bailing on national tv doing the easy things.

I'd be embarrassed at least
