It was the old school yellow ones and whether or not they were aboe 2000'AGL is hard to say and I guess dependends on where you were at the time...if you were on top of Sulphur Mountain, you would be looking down on the planes.

I'm glad those guys showed up and did what they did. Why is it a Canadian's always runs to the rule book? Its comments like that, that empowers these government power hungry nitwits, please refrain from legitimizing there child like response and enjoy the fact that we live in a free country and may...

Can anyone find this analogy where the guy at the paint store is explaining how the price of a gallon of paint can fluctuate where it's a comparison to airline ticket prices?

Thank you.

Thanks CJ....guess I'll fly to YEG and rent a car.

Hey guys...is there a scheduled service that runs from Calgary or Edmonton to Lac Labiche? Thanks.

CFIT with 29,000 hours! What does this say, it can happen to anyone?

Thanks guys...I see that the course is available for 270 days once you're signed up. How does it work? Are there different modules to complete and 'send in'? Or can you go back and review anytime?

Question for instructors...have you found that students who have taken their ppl groundschool online to have the same level of knowledge and were able to pass their exam as well as those who attended class?
Any idea which are the best online courses that are available?

Thanks,

PM me if it's still for sale please.
