I did my Multi-IFR at ProIFR this summer and thought the training was excellent. I went in and told them that i wanted to get it done in as short amount of time as possible and i was out 21 days later with my rating. If youre willing to study like crazy and know your crap before the lesson, youll be...

I did the INRAT 2 days ago. I took the Aerocourse 4 months ago (knowing nothing about IFR) and never wrote the exam because i was in the middle of univ. exams. However, the notes from that carried me through my own 'cram session' and i passed the test studying mainly by the aerocourse workbook. Like...

6 aircraft, 6 staff - we wear navy company logo golf shirts and clean shorts/pants and sandals/shoes as weather dictates. Looks pretty good and makes for a relaxed yet somewhat professional appearance. We just got these company shirts because it was hard to differentiate between instructors and stud...

GO OILERS!

It was indeed their Piper Cub. News is saying that they were doing aerial photography in the area and yes, the cell that passed around 2 was indeed a nasty one.

The wierdest feeling is that i saw them takeoff....

My most sincere condolences to friends and families involved.

if youre off to Pro, see you there - im heading out in Aug.

heres it with all else erased....

Ive seen C-FEAR around these parts. Funniest thing is that it belongs to a flight school!

Yes but the point still remains, we are 'paying' for it currently with our medicals (i have no problems with that) and have been getting amendments. Now we have to pay for it if we want it sent to us. so the internet one is not free (we are still paying, either way), its just cheaper for them to dis...

Im just finishing up my last semester of my business degree at university. I started Flight training in high school and now for the last year have been instructing part/full time and going to school full time. its busy at times (midterms, finals) but other than that, its doable. It just keeps all op...

86.4 in Edmonton.....and to hear the Americans crying over $2 a gallon...this sucks. Doesnt a lot of the oil COME from Alberta?

75-80 hours a day?! wow, sounds like you should keep praying that the sun gods dont go down either! Out here in alberta, we only get 24 hours in a day....and only like 7 of those hours are sunlight... :? :D kidding, good to hear you are doing well and keeping busy - out here in alberta, things are g...

Hey there, I am currently finishing up my last semester of my business degree. I am also a flight instructor part time and have gone from ab initio to instructor in the 4 years it took me to get my degree. Now its not simple - it takes some effort and focus but it certainly is doable. I was in your ...

Hz2p - How do you REALLY feel....lol....

Does FedEx only hire American pilots or do they recruit Canadians as well? Anyone?

hey man, go for it! Im just finishing up my last semester of university with a business degree. Its tough slugging sometimes but it can be done (and you can even have a life!). As far as part time instructing, yeah it can be done. Just make sure that those are your intentions before doing your instr...

i first soloed on a plane C-FEAR

Hi there, I am wanting to start on my IFR rating and would like to know what the best material out there for studying the ground material is? What did all of you study to prep for the written exam? I know the AIP (RAC) section is a great place to start but are there any study guides that you would r...

If youre in the Alberta area, Cooking Lake Aviation Academy is doing aerobatics on a C-150...Im not 100% on the prices, but im sure theyre under 100 per hour...Again im not sure if thats a good price or not but i hear its an absolute blast.

Chris, I too have just completed my Class 4 ride - Today actually! For my test, i was given an average student with 15 hours and the 'student' had just worked on power off stalls and needed work on normal landings, from that i deduced that the next step that i had to teach was lesson 6. I did PGI fo...

I saw this on an airlines website - pretty sure this does nothing but make people panic about air travel :D http://www.flyecxpress.com/save_your_life.html just imagine a person wearing cotton or woll as opposed to synthetics when travelling in the air just so that their clothes might not melt to the...
