Crew house #1. A squirrel came up out of the air vent, looked at me and ran down the hall to go back down the air vent in the bedroom. Was kinda funny till winter and the furnace kicks in and I discovered his bathroom was in the vents too. Crew house #2. You knew the septic tank was full when the fo...

Here's one that will make you giggle, even if it doesn't work. Put this in your local paper: For Sale: one Xbox 360 with 10 games. First $250.00 takes it. I work nights so calls only between 12:00am and 4:00am. Then put their phone number here. It might cost you $25.00 or so, but about the time this...

I had an upstairs neighbor who made a lot of noise once. I snapped when he was throwing firewood out of the back of his truck onto the patio at 6:00 am. I'd go stay at my girlfriend's house and program the TV at my place to turn on at 3:30am on the french channel, really loud. Sometimes he got a por...

Nice work, a little left of centerline though. :D Glad to see no injuries, except for the belly. A lot of the runways in the the US have grooves cut into the asphalt for water drainage, and these act as a great big file when you gear up, and chew the hell out of the belly. Hope that wasn't one of th...

That's a lovely collection of teapots and trinkets you have there Haz.

WTF? Are there any hard surfaces in the room you're in? I think ZFD is proof that God has a sense of humor. It's a great place to be from, about 500 miles from in my opinion.

I could have also named this story "Why Grounded isn't allowed to have tinsel on his tree" So here's how things happen. We set up the tree, decorate it with lots of shiny things, and wait for the 3:30am wake up crash when the cat pulls it over. This is followed shortly after with a 4:30 version of t...

....HOWEVER 80 mice in your handbaggage?....WHY?

Well, any more than that would have been weird..........

Well, the name changed. It's not like they moved it. Most people would rather tear those pages out of the CFS and pretend there is no Winnipeg. Just a big space between Toronto and Calgary.

Why doesn't Santa have any kids?


Because he only comes once a year, and when he does it's down a chimney!

Had a friend of my brother go back to Turkey for a visit with the extended family. When he got there he had no problems getting into the country.(He holds passports for both Canada and Turkey) He was there for about a month, and when it csme time to leave he was told at the airport that he had been ...

A place like Acklands or Princess auto should have what you seek. Look for the steel heavy-duty sprayers. These can be equipped with a couple of battery blankets and a insulated blanket over it all to keep it warm. We keep a few plugged in at the hangar 24/7 and they're plenty warm enough, and they'...

Well, having grown up in the prairies, if he wasn't hit by a plane he'd have been one of the many people of a rural background who get hit by a train at a level crossing. The f&*^ing thing is 3/4 of a mile long, did you not see it? Do we need a federally approved and subsidized study to find out wha...

Very interesting reading. The only problem with buying the IL-76 is that Mr. Harper doesn't want closer ties with Russia. At that kind of price tag, I would think that the forces will be scared to use these machines. Four airplanes is really too small a number to consider. There will be accidents, t...

Three pages of this crap? Are you kidding me? What's next? The way medevac pilots smell? Sorry about that too. This is how this works, when there is a patient on board, we are considered a medevac. When we are going to pick up a patient, we are considered a medevac. When there is no patient and we a...

The late Mr. Wayne Hicks, Mitchinson Flying service YXE. Was a great instructor with an enthusiasim I have yet to see again. Did my private there, and he taught me commercial groundschool. Truly loved his job, and passed that along to those he taught. Died in a training accident almost 10 years ago....

A giraffe can pick its nose with it's tongue.

It's a province? Really? I thought it was the name of a school that the Northern sent all it's employees to!

The employees didn't cause this, but they are the ones that will pay the price through the lack of flights and layoffs. TWA employs a great group of people, and it is a shame the management does not look after thier employees. Bottom line, even through all of this the work is still there, WWA canno...

Awesome, thanks for the tips. It was FN-F4 for my computer. Watching Pushing tin right now.

I was getting ready to leave a small northern community to fly to another one when the cockpit lights went out. As it was nighttime I reset the CB, the lights stayed on and I taxiied out. All was normal until about 300 feet on departure and the lights all went out again, and some smoke came out from...

I'm trying to watch a DVD on my TV, from my laptop. I have a Gateway 3200 series with an output on the side for an additional monitor. The TV i just bought has a monitor cable that I plug into. My wife's laptop works just fine with this arrangement, but I'd like to use mine because it's a little fas...
