Re: Missing plane Wawa
Quote: "April 24, 2022 –Canadian Armed Forces - The Air Task Force flew 360 hours and covered approximately 17,300 square kilometers during the search." I agree. A SPOT or Garmin inReasch transmitting positions would reduce the search area considerably. At 180 mph that search area could have been re...

Re: Fatal Accident Near Slave Lake
The pilot was 84 years old and had been flying for over 40 years.

Re: 747 sucks in ground equipment
Rumor was that they got off the taxiway into the grass. Poured the power to it and had a lot of thrust and momentum once back on the pavement.
