Curious what prices across Canada

All these various saftey measures have merit indeed, however in this case as often occurs with Beaver crashes the engine displaces the foot wells and often traps the front pax and pilot. Loss of life is always tragic especially when it is a friend and mentor.

Too many lately farewell old friend RIP

So it seems this crash followed the same sequence of events as so many that came before in this area. Moral of the story don't try to walk up a down esculator so to speak get your altitude in the valley before proceeding enroute.

Latest update word is Air Nootka Dhc2 Hesquit lake aprox 10 northwest of Hotsprings cove east of the Hesquit Peninsula low vis prevailing winds from the SE unconfirmed but it is believed there were suvivors.

Do what I do write deceased on the bill and send it back it works for me on parking tickets, although nobody has sent flowers yet.

all of the above

I heard Tofino Air is being sold and split up into 3 different operations anyone else heard?

new airbus driver..............Whats it doin now?

seasoned airbus driver............ Oh its doin that again

the runway was kinda short but sure was wide

never land a float plane further away from shore than you care to swim

I don't understand why people must try and read between the lines I asked a simple question. If you don't know the answer please keep the inuendo to yourself. If someone knows the answer great let us know.

Its not my place to make announcements like that, you perhaps should reread post's I simply put forward a question plain and simple.

Yes I heard about the Whistler Air deal. I t seems that Harbour Air are in aquisition mode what with West Coast, then WhisterAir, and various Euro ventures etc. Rowdy also may well be a reliable source, however it fits with their modus operendi and it may well they are keeping a lid on it. I do know...

I did if your doubtful then you don't really know. A very reliable source actually

Heard this from a reliable source is it true?

So fly in the bug it was mentioned in the news that the Pilot was familiar with the neighborhood. As it has been said typically accidents occur through a chain of events, this certainly may be such a case That said you mentioned you also have -2 time and would know there is a significant difference ...

Yes Cat driver you are right it takes far to long to publish findings and although this accident does suggest the possibility of flight into rising terrain we cannot and must not draw a conclusion based on partial information. However I felt compelled to remind all pilots of the this incideous scena...

A tragic loss and condolences to all concerned. TSB now must do their due dilligence and determine the reason. Although this crash and location has all the ingredients found in rising terrain accidents we must await the TSB findings. However it is an opportunity to revisit this often too frequent sc...

I owned a Cherokee 180 for 14 years and really liked it for its versatility and economics. Fill the chairs, tanks and cargo and good to go. With 1150 useful 300lbs full fuel left 850 payload. worked out to 4 hrs with just under 1 hr reserve at 120+ knots optimum alt.(9.5- 10.0 gals per hr) You can b...

I still think we can't afford to spend that kinda of money plain and simple lets live with refitted f18s spend some money on the the rest of our military for the much needed updates. Let the americans waste money on the front line aircraft and put the money to work in more appropriate directions. It...

I,m no expert by any means but common sense needs to prevail here. It seems that what they are lookin to do is,nt makin sense. Its like tryin to drive a Ferrari up to the ski hill or the 7 11 for milk. The F18 was an obvious choice for Canadas needs in the past and could be for the future considerin...

It is actualy nice flying up there it is beautiful country and i found Transwest good to work for, however the economc side has to make sense.

4300 for the dhc2T and 5000 for the dhc3T so the when the inexperience guy who takes the job does a hot start or damage to a machine or worse hurts a passenger do they really save any money. I for one would,nt be a happy pax sittin behind an inexperienced zit squeezer in bad weather or an emergancy ...

`You may have the wrong place it is not in a house the office is in commercial space on the main floor of 4 level building with condos and apartment above. No the Learjet is not at the local airport. Contract Aero is a Service Provider to the Aviation Industry providing world wide staffing for Maint...

Give Mike Archan there a call he is the person to talk to.

Ditto on the comments from Rowdy and the Cat Driver. Float flying is about commence sense and experience. The object is to operate efficiently using appropriate measures to protect the customers, machine, and to make the operator money. Time is money but one can still do the job utilizing downwind l...
