Really eh? I need to be more specific, do I?... Hmmmm... Alright: I'm looking for a man who was an instructor at Markham Airport back in the late 70's/early 80's, who was a rather colourful character that many people liked (especially young ladies), and whose initials were W.E.B. .... izzat better? ...

...or at least drop me a PM, dangit!... Please?

....or, failing that, if anyone knows of his whereabouts?... I'd like to say hello!

CID..... That retraction shows a kind of class not often seen here. Good on ya!

Well, yes.... you could choose to focus on the few negative, and nasty style comments in this thread.... On the other hand, someone else might be able to see how many more, positive, constructive style comments have been added. Is your cup of AvCanada half full? ...or half empty?

Read Hedleys argument But sometimes he's not a nice person, so nothing he said is important or true. That's it! I was wondering when/how this forum seemed to improve.... Of course, now I see it, He's gone! I don't think "sometimes" quite covered it btw. ... more like "very often" on this forum. Bac...

I'm not sure if fixed wing beasties come any uglier than this one:

... maybe something with wings? ...a biplane perhaps?

I still cannot believe a competent aviator would have made such a bone headed move.... Unless I see him say, "I screwed up", I'm gonna continue to believe it was intentional. Look how fast he was taxiing that thing for gawd sakes! I think he'd accumulated so much debt that his best financial outcome...

pls disregard... Bad me had the keyboard.

Of course it isn't.

So let the speculations begin... My bet: The purchaser defaulted on payment and someone wants to repossess.

Now that's funny! There was no need for that.. LSD was flowing quite freely in those days.

Good job!! But in addition to fixing whatever is wrong with the engine, somebody needs to do something with those wheel bearings. They aren't supposed to buzz like that... I'll second that! Sounded pretty loud... I think he rolled so long 'cause he was looking to get the thing off the road on the r...

I would be perfectly happy making $30,000 flying around some dinky plane. Why is everyone so hell bent on just getting hours and upgrading their rating to the next bigger and faster plane. Well westcoasting, when life hits you with a kid, a mortgage, a wife, etc, making $30,000 just doesn't quite c...

I wish to hell I'd met Buffalo Joe about 30 years ago.... All my life, all I've wanted was to work for a decent man, who'd look after me, as long as I'd look after him... I never found that man... the world is filled with cheats, pricks and assholes.... It's damned good to see one who isn't. How do ...

Sincere condolences Mr. .. ...very sorry to read of your loss.

AC considered the 318 before deciding on the Embrio's.... They looked at 318's, RJ-705's (I think they were, or are?) and Embraer... (unless my memory is worse than I know?) much to the surprise of many, the Embraers came out the winners in cost effectiveness at the time.... Or at least, so one woul...

Anyone else wondering how the two North Cariboo pilots would have voted a week ago? In the uber-elite 25% with Doc or with the 64% that think it just might be possible? We've all heard of the swiss cheese accident model. Never much cared for the analogy. I tend to lean towards the pass-code theory....

It's one of the new Obama hybrids. Sort of like a crocagator. Not at all like a crocashit. Now that we have the messiah as president, all kinds of new and wonderful things are happening in the world. Agtractors is just the beginning. :smt017 It's Obama's fault? or; He made up that name? :smt017 ......

I really don't know Four1oh, but I suspect it was because he realized he'd been led into territory he didn't have the heart for. That being scheduled service... I've heard that was someone else's doing (the then CEO who's name I don't remember?). .... but I can't be sure of much that I think I remem...
