Re: Sky Regional

Pay is about 50k for fo's and about 70k for Capt's. No idea what the company is like. They are forecasting more aircraft in the new year. CP seems like a decent guy.

Re: Importance of the additional ground school

I believe he and i can discuss these simple principles pre/during/post flight lesson and not spend hours jerking around bernoulli's principles, cabin heat controls, carb, etc. I want to focus on things that are in the air (stick and rudder my brother). The rest of the science I can read POH/practic...

Re: Regional 1

Starting wage is around 40k + 9 air time after 20 hours in canada, and 0 hours for overseas. Per Diems are based on area of operations. Schedule is also dependent on area of operations, usually at least 50% time off for time worked though. So if you work 20 days you get 10 off. Operate in Canada, Ch...

Re: Dash 8 single engine approach.

Alright the reference is from the AFM. It maybe worded "should" and may not be a requirement but it is found under 4-3-1 section 4.3.2. Under the notes section. I can't remember the exact wording right now.

Cheers

Re: Dash 8 single engine approach.

The Dash * 100-300 series AFM states that the autopilot is not allowed to fly a s/e approach. IT will fly it, but doing so breaks the AFM limitation, why it is there I have no idea, email Bombardier and get them to explain it. Hand Flying the approach SE isn't rocket science either, if you remember ...

Re: Medivac call-signs

When I flew medevacs, it was company policy for the pilots not to know the status of patients so as to avoid any heroics. So that being said we were Medevac status whenever there was a patient on the plane and not when we were headed back to base.

Re: Weird Engine Failure

Flew a flying club c-172 once that developed a hole in the carb float, ran fine during run up, take off, downwind to final, shut down when the student pulled the throttle to idle on final to adjust altitude, and fired up soon as he added power again.

Duathlon

To keep it short, I have never participated in any athon at all. Did some training for a half marathon but haven't actually participated in one. Then I started thinking and thought it would be interested in trying a duathlon. Any tips on training for one?

Cheers

Re: SkyRegional Q400 in Air Canada colors

With the amount of oil that a Dash 8 relocates from inside the engine to outside the engine and all over the cowls, I wouldn't paint them a baby blue either!

Re: Gravel Strip Training

demonstrate a rolling run up if possible. Either way make sure they understand that its a bad idea to do a static runup on gravel.
