OK N2 its now time to splash the name of the supplier all over the internet. Let the games begin !!!!

Ahramin, I recommend you do a google search for SARSAT, there are hundreds of sites that will explain everything you need to know about it. Seriously, it could really save your life if you fly in the remote North. Just out of curiosity, do any of the civilian aircraft in Canada have UHF radios? Mayb...

121.5 is a life-saver. The frequency is monitored by all airliners, military aircraft and satellites. The satellites can pinpoint your location. As far as I am concerned if you have two radios, one has to be on the emergency frequency, especially if you are in a remote location. My $.02 worth!!

Nobody wants to see the demise of Air Canada. However the management at Air Canada must shoulder the blame for their poor decision making, their poor customer service and the attrocious attitude of some of their employees. Would I be wrong in thinking that Air Canada are banking on a "bail out" by t...

FA28 guy, I have to disagree with you........there will always be a desperate low-timer out there who will jump at a job, regardless of what the employer or his reputation is like. This employer is laughing all the way to the bank. The Labour Board could just take the smirk of the fat-cats face or e...

Birddog, if you have the time available, call the nearest AirForce base and ask for the training officer. He may be able to help you.

Jaded, Face the man and ask him why your schedule has been reduced. Make sure that you have a small tape recorder in your top pocket, turned on of course, and record what he says. Dont do anything rash until you are sure of what you want to do. DO NOT under any circumstances deliberately hurt the ai...

Griffon, Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and its just my opinion, but I have always loved the PBY and all she stood for during the big conflict. There are many many aircrew personnel that owe her a huge debt of gratitude for finding them and then landing to pick them up in seas that you would n...

The PBY has to be the most beautiful amphibian still flying. CAT, I envy you. Just how many hours do you have on the sexy beast? (and the plane!!).

I havent used his text but I know the guy from the "old days" when men were men and so were the women!!

Phil currently contributes to the new Vertical Magazine, a magazine dedicated to the North American helicopter industry. Its a really good publication http://www.verticalmag.com

I dont care who you are or what you are, but you should be showing the CAT a little respect. Do not confuse his contempt with TC as whining. I truly believe that he is trying to make things easier for aircrew to deal with the buraucracy at Transport Canada. I have also asked TC to respond to CAT's c...

Three choices:- 1. Suck it up, put up with it and hope that you will eventually get the job you want 2. Report it to the necessary authorities and hope that he will change and that you will eventually get the job you want 3. Next time he pulls the pony-tail, turn round, knee him in the balls and cla...

I believe that Island Airport will still operate, but its potential will never now be realised. The death of the bridge will definately affect the amount and quality of users. It would have been really nice to have a reasonably sized airline flying in and out of the Island instead of having to go th...

I am disappointed that so many of you find our website so dull. We do try our best to provide a medium for young aspiring aviators to ask some very basic questions without getting flamed or ridiculed. They receive sensible answers from our more experienced aviators. If you find that you cant express...

Geez Duke, sorry you find it dreary. Why dont you register and then liven it up a bit????? I'm sure we are all ears for your pearls of wisdom!

This sounds like grounds for involving the "discrimination" police. Chris, I am really surprised that you would discriminate against anyone in this manner. Did you thoroughly think this through before involving the Ministry? There could be repurcussions over this one, if any UK members read this!! R...
