Re: Which European airline would you join if Canada joins the European Union?

So far all there is against Georgescu are allegations - same as what they are doing to Marine Le Pen and the AFD. You probably don’t know much about Marine Le Pen and her minions to say so (Unless you vote far right) It’s about time they caught her! A bit like Al Capone, everything in plain view bu...

Re: Which European airline would you join if Canada joins the European Union?

You really don't want to join the EU. It means giving up your Sovereignty - EU decides who you have to let in to your country. Each country gets a quota of migrants. If you don't control your border - you're not a country imho. Do you really want to become France, Belgium or the UK? Then there's Ro...

TC should not allow any military pilots to use their flight hours to acquire a civillian pilot's licence, A kernel once told me that it's the way we train pilots in the military, true but totally different from civillian pilot training I know I've been to Southport Portage where they train young me...

On a side note, aviation is not just about Airliners and one of the aircraft I fly for a living was built in 1943 (Rebuilt a few times since :mrgreen: )

Re: Approach Ban Changes

Good point. Which accidents were caused by this though? I don't recall any but I'm sure there are some. There is couple of good examples listed by TC to justifying their course of action and that type of issue. It's buried in one of those links that started this tread. https://tc.canada.ca/sites/de...

That's not the circumstance we are in, but if we were, it would be even more important that the passenger in 32K doesn't try to tell the crew how to do their jobs.

I was more thinking about pre-departure top of the wing contamination compounded with maybe some ice collected on the leading edges once moving fast enough.
It's really just a supposition out of many.
