Yeeeeeah. This is why a Pre-Buy is essential folks.

Looks like Beriev inspired design. Like the Be-103.

I'd live maybe in Rzeszow, Szczecin or Gdansk.

Nice new FBO and 100LL available in YPD (Port Hawkesbury) as well. A good alternative to YQY.

The LH horizontal stab and elevator are peppered in the same way.

how unfortunate for them it crashed somewhere evidence can be collected.

Man. Have you thought about talking to a professional Counselor or Therapist about your disorder about the Aircraft Maintenance industry in Canada? Like, show us on the doll where the bad man touched you. I have an M1 license and a bunch of time contracting yet somehow I am nowhere as butt hurt as y...

Ukrainians are so eager to fight that the regime is press ganging people off the streets. Really? Have you been there? Or do you just chug back all of the kremlin's propaganda? There was no press ganging. There is a lot of recruitment posters around that very by which Oblast you're in. Until you've...

Yes, modern day, and post-1991 Ukrainians are longing to be Russian. That's why they're fighting so aggressively... :rolleyes: Ukrainians are so eager to fight that the regime is press ganging people off the streets. Really? Have you been there?

Didn't get to keep flying much but a licensed M1 AME now.

Being a technician at Tesla, you are going to top out around $50 an hour. Starting out as a first year apprentice, it's going to take over 10 years before you see that 50 an hour. In those 10 years you have to learn how some of the most complex vehicles on the road work. You are going to be doing a...

Wild guess, but sounds pretty similar to an operation out of The Pas that goes by MA?

I'd wager a toonie on that.

From TSB... C-GQXD, a Piper PA-31-350 operated by 2080061 Ontario Inc. (dba SkyCare Air Ambulance), was conducting a flight from Pickle Lake Airport (CYPL), ON to Winnipeg/St. Andrews (CYAV), MB. The aircraft was fuelled by a local fuelling company in CYPL. As the aircraft was departing from CYPL, ...

They exist if you're patient enough. Took them about eight weeks to re-approve me to write CARs for my AME license which I had been approved to do so back pre-Pandemic... Then another couple weeks to get the appointment booked... Holy frig. Got my license finally but not without being up their hole ...

I'll just say that you'll probably find a better proportion of Pros vs Cons elsewhere.

Never heard "Journeyman" used regarding AMEs.

Just "Apprentice" until they're licensed.

Mmm hmm. Very much so. When Rampies south of the border are making Apprentice AME wages even... Big problem.

Was always told to avoid polarized glasses for flying. As an AME and using polarized glasses, it all depends on the angle you look at the surface. Heated windscreens, different displays can vary between brands of sunglasses. Whether they use linear or circular polarization and the angle will determi...

Wait, do we work at the same place?

We're not far off from that.

Wow.

Tell us how you really feel. But in less words than Homer's Iliad please.

We have plenty of transferrable skills. I had to use them during the Pandemic lockdowns. Apparently we can work high steel and build gondolas.

Uh, you guys do know that it's already almost done. https://www.piper.com/blog/taking-safety-to-new-heights-meet-garmin-autoland-and-the-halo-safety-system/ It'a not a big stretch to take this from an "Emergency Only" to a field-to-field system.

You take up two seats, you pay for two seats. Why make it more complicated than that. You need to use a wheel chair, you pay for a wheel chair.

As far as I know for M1 category fixed-wing there is no Type Course required to sign them out.

I have a couple M1 courses but they were only because I was working at an OEM certified Service Centre for those types.
