The reason why Quebec based companies don't have their "fair share" of the Boeing IRB's is because they did not do as good a job selling themselves as the other companies that were vying for the same contracts. Frankly it's as the article says, because it's Quebec, it is an entitlement and the compa...

One way would be to discuss the extremes of the situation. For example, if the wind were 0kts I would suggest that the both of you would agree that 0 wind has 0 effect. The other extreme would be to say if the wind was 200kts. If the aircraft was just sitting there, (just barely heavy enough to not ...

Heheh, nice pic. Strange though. The pic posted here, vs. the pic on the MAF website at first glance appear to be from different angles of the same strip. In actual fact, they are reversed (different pics tho).

It will not happen just for the simple sake of cost savings. Even the most technologically advanced UAV's today, such as the Predator B still require pilots and sensor operators and will for the foreseeable furture. It will take alot more than saving a few of salaries for crewing an aircraft to swit...

Nah, I think it's just linked to the fact that the industry is comparitively larger (30MM people, vs 300MM people); therefore more opportunities, more types of industry competitivenes, company posturing, etc.

Heya Nis, I'd recommend adding the following items: - Duct tape (roll it in a 6" strip) - Orange signalling tape - Water purifier drops or tablets - Couple of safety pins - Wire - Pocket knife (as per above) - Fire starter (steel wool or dryer lint are excellent) (fuel from a/c works pretty good too...

Sanjet is correct. Attrition is still a serious issue with UAV's. What does an average airliner fly in the run of a year? 2,000 hours? 3,000 hours? No single UAV exists today, and not for the forseeable future, that has accumulated any serious amount of time on the airframe. They have improved, but ...

I also just saw one of the new ads as well. They project a more serious image of the airline, over the older AADS commercials, with people within the company that care about how their airline is run, and how they treat their customers. The AADS commericals always got a few chuckles from me and a fe...
