Re: United, again.

As was posted earlier, all that people look at when booking a flight is price. A few months from now social media will have moved on to an offensive beer commercial or Beyonce's shoes and if United's flights are cheaper they will fill them. Maybe even over sell them That was true until now, Paid sl...

Re: United, again.

I am a private pilot, I do not pretend to know the rules and regulations of the airlines. I can see United not boarding the passenger. Regardless of rules and regulations. Someone at United needs to share in the culpability. Regardless how this guy reacted. There was no need for that scene. Especial...

What about non-profit flying club? Our goal is to fly and have fun. Not a money making venture. Want to make sure everyone is pro...

Re: Oshawa Flight Training

Although it's not strictly relevant to the original question, for the sake of accuracy it's worth noting the following: Buttonville, Oshawa and Billy Bishop all have control towers. The waits at the island are not zero, but it's unusual for there to be more than two aircraft waiting for departure a...

Re: So I walked into a flight school and asked how much flight training was these days...

Buy a 150 for 15-20K do your training, and sell it for a little less than you paid. The above calculation shows a conservative rental cost of 26k with tax thats 30K!!! Buy that 150 and save most of that money...Yes I know there are maintenance fees etc. but there is still a huge savings. If you can ...
