Actually that is Air Canada's motto. You need a recommend because you are going to be acting as PIC with a DFTE along for the ride to examine you. The DFTE wants the instructor to certify that this person probably will not kill them. Oh and Disco Stu, it is the KETTLE that calls the POT black, not t...

Definitely advertised like a hard sell, but it could have some useful information. If you want to start a patrol company i do not think that this book will make the difference between success and failiure, but it could help.

We had the funniest guy i have ever heard doing an approach today. Center had to repeat everything at least twice, and half the time center issued instructions to someone else he would ask if it was for him. Some snippets i made out between my fits of hysterical laughter were: Center: "Left fifteen ...

britguy: You should always have your takeoff time recorded anyway, so it is very easy to check the time when you land and record air time. I would use air time rather than tach time, it makes more sense and is what the manufacturer intented. But in another post you stated your aircraft is privately ...

While i would not take a job from a company without thoroughly researching it, i have no problem applying for a job from an anonymous company. There are many reasons that a company would choose not to publish their name and contact info here, many of which would not prevent me from applying. Now if ...

TC Security Rules

Does anyone know where TC publishes its rules for airline security? Locked cockpit doors, no box cutters, etc.

Jigglybus: My interpretation came from the YYC office. For part i normal and emergency were not covered by a group 1 IFR ride because you did not cover all normal maneuvers, steep turns being the prime example. Part ii seems to me to support that a group 1 IFR ride is not enough because it specifies...

Jigglybus: You got issued your initial ATPL without a PPC? How long ago was this? Perhaps this is a case of it depends which TC office you go to. The Calgary and Edmonton ones insist that a simple Group I IFR ride is not sufficient, and neither is a PCC. Anyone else got an ATPL without a PPC? What o...

I talked to Mike Goulian as kosh last year. Sennheiser is now one of his major sponsors and they get him to stand at their booth several hours a day. Mike really gets off on adoring fans and autographs, so i think he was having a bit of a bad time seeing as he was surrounded by all of us arrogant av...

Actually, i hear far more imbeciles using canuck callsigns than N numbers. It is not like they have a monopoly on it or anything.

Sounds like a plan. Find an aerobatic aircraft that you can take lessons on and rent. Attend aerobatic competitions. Compete in aerobatic competitions for many years, making a name for yourself as one of the best young guys out there. Buy an aerobatic aircraft or use your AME skills to build one, an...
