Frozen solid, A very commendable reply and true in totality !

New 4 wheel trucks, skidoos, multiple trips to winterpeg, booze,,,yea, i can imagine where the monies gone

A large spread is a GOOD indication that 1 mag is going beyond the max allowable timing OR exceeded its internal timing !!

Its called a STAND DOWN order !

The new-age thinking gurus would have us think that obesity, smoking, paedofilia, drugs and aviation are ALL diseases and if you just so happen to be at the wrong place at the right time, you too could get the treatable disease ( except aviation, its incurable)

What happens when an overly obese person is spoken to in another language (concerning paying for an attendant/extra seat) other than french, could it be a 2 for 1 lawsuit deal ???

Does New Zealand have a 6th group ? "Sheep Romancers" ?

I dont know where Jon's head is right now and im NOT excusing the memory card fiasco, but as a fellow hangglider and Comm pilot/ AME who has been in aviation for more than 27 years, I can certainly speak about procedures, checks and double checks and a safety CULTURE that doesnt impede our freedoms ...

Ive never met Mr. Orders, however, this past summer (after the death)Apparently Jon and another hangglider pilot were on another pilots wings, assisting a launch at Savana BC. NEITHER assist pilot NOR the pilot launching confirmed that the caribiner was attached,,,outcome,,,, serious injuries from a...

Elt deflection requirements should be adhered to. It is .100 inch with 100 pound pull force. Most 121.5 ELT installations now fail that requirement. All in all, a proper install is 8 hrs. labour.

This is starting to sound like a man-tool measuring contest, as sooo often happens in aviation piloting circles! IF you go beyond manufacturers limits, your either a very special pilot or an ASS ____ or both !! in a commercial operation ! :rolleyes: Best to leave your incredible exploits to your own...

The video reminds me of when i used to visit my father up near Bancroft Ontario, on highway 62. The key was to get off the highway and get hidden before any cars saw me lol Engine problems ya know ! The difficulty was the take-off

If you put an ad in saying that if you send a resume in and you dont have an ATPL as required, then we will hunt you down and remove one of your B ___S. I would imagine there still will be dozens of "applicants" sending in their resumes without having their ATPL. WHY do people do this ? Great ad BTW...

CS, Just the aformentioned Evidence is enough for the general consensus to convict him of malfeasance .

TC actions frivolous and vexatious ? BULLSHIT!! They were trying to do their job to keep this fly-by-night asswipe from killing people !! KUDOS to TC ! ( Thought i would never say that ! )

One of the more wasteful and asnine inspections is pulling out the interior in cessnas every 200 hrs ,,,every 500 hrs MAYBE but 200 hrs Thats like doing a complete run-up prior to every flight, of a 10 flight day!

Hard to imagine if they have EVER done an off-airport landing /take-off in their life !
Most private pilots, I would imagine, have more $$ than brains/ability

If the PIC had survived the crash, 20 years hard labour and a lifetime ban on driving anything would be a good sentence! IDIOT !!!

cosmetic,,,,but TC may differ

Transport Canada's Inspector, Luc Mayne, then decided that a mandatory oral safety instruction during evacuations need not be given

According to the CARS posted , WHAT mandatory oral breifing DURING the evac ???

once landed a c-150 in a sandstorm in the us , prearranged 9 folks to grab the plane winds were gusting to 95 mph on the meter,,,

1 pic shows a sedate chute descent and another shows the prop blades bent back as if the engine was idling,,WHY wouldnt the pilot have the where-with-all to shut the engine down and secure the fuel system during the lengthly descent ? FAIL TIMES TWO ? !

Failure mode ? Its obvious, the mag leads were not secured as required !

A litany of not 1 not 2 but THREE failures,, doing their job in ANY of the 3 opportunities would have prevented the aircraft reaching the runway EPIC fail !!

Looking at the job listing fabric aircraft repair, fiberglass work and aircraft painting skills; installing, supporting, and repairing all models of Satloc GPS systems. I would imagine the employer wants electrical exp, sheet metal exp, etc. Neither the tractor nor the heavy equipment mechanic needs...
