Re: T/O or Landing during Solar Eclipse
Actual totality would mean you can't see your hand in front of your face. That would have an impact on aviation. What we call totality still has significant light coming around the edges of the moon regardless of its distance.

Re: Jet stream down
You are SO wrong. The airplane was in the cold side of the hangar. De-ice sprayer was standing by and the crew were observed climbing on ladders doing a tactile test just before closing up. NWAL has some issues but they are competent at operating in the North. I know but the best way get informatio...

Re: Jet stream down
The plane was pulled out of warm hangar into falling snow. There was a delay waiting for 3 passengers to arrive. When they took off the wings and/or tail were contaminated. The reason they want the name out of the news is they are worried about the deceased passenger's families and employer coming a...

Re: How long until you hear back from AC?
Are they assigning WB FO to new-hires without previous jet time now? They were 6 years ago but I think they stopped for awhile.

This website was instrumental in me getting all my flying jobs over the last 20 years. Now it's like a car crash that you can't look away from.

The ICAO audit and the new UN report are separate things I believe.

Re: Perimeter Runway Excursion
Please make a thread about the North Star PC12 crash then. I'm interested. I agree this Pelmet person has kind of ruined the accident forum. Every incident should have its own thread with a descriptive title and the date. I don't think it's a conspiracy, people just don't know how to use the internet.

Re: Runway Excursion Thread
Kind of scary that a flat tire leads to loss of control. Would this be one of the larger planes with single tires per main gear?

It would be hard to find Westjetty pilots these days without tattoos. It'd be like having a no spikey hair policy in the 00's.

Just thinking outside of the box; could you go to the US via Australia? Like get a job in Australia and a PR there and get a much better chance of going to a US major?

Just look up if it's FAA approved. They just copy them instead of having to do any work themselves.

Re: Quick question on how to snag
I like how you guys are worried Transport Canada are going to come down hard on the school if there's a logbook issue. I worked for a 703 that didn't have a single pilot written snag in any logbook ever. Stacks of Journey Logs to the ceiling and not one snag. Transport never said shit.
