Re: 300XC question

Is it possible there’s a record of flight plans?

Receipts for fuel? Hotel rooms? Wiarton Willy stuffy?

Re: “Full landing” vs “touch and go”?

It’s not really something Transport Canada requires. It depends on what you want to do after touch down. Full landing is when you leave the runway. Usually once you are finished flying. Stop and go means you come to a complete stop on the runway before turning of the carb heat and adding full power ...

Re: Flight school

Do you have personal experience with CFC ? I mean after too much research I ended up choosing Calgary to settle down. Is CFC The best option? Is there any other good options around the area ? I have occasionally flown around with an instructor in their planes. It was ok. I liked it better in 1995 w...

Re: Flight school

Why hello aspiring aviator. Did you try the Calgary flying club? They might have a waiting list but they will take your money and partially dependent on you, maybe even train you until you have a CPL with lots of great ratings.. As for affordable living expenses in Canada you are at least five years...

Re: Does anyone bother to register+test their 406Mhz ELT?

How often does it need to be re-registered? Every time the plane is registered to a new owner. Thanks for the clarification! Reading one of the posts I almost misinterpreted as having to re-register every year! :smt040 Shhhhh, don’t give the Minister of Transport any extra ideas for cash grabs.

Photofly is right. None of this conversation is relevant.

Re: Cost for Private Pilots Licence in Canada for International Students

What’s a training flight? I have a lot of dual time that I would guess was all considered training by the various instructors riding along. Really though, was it? I’m not ready for a CPL flight test, so I definitely need more practice flying. Sure it’s pointless because I probably can’t ever pass th...

Re: Angle of Bank in Climbing Turns

Of course I need more practice. I’m not afraid of a wing dropping. Maybe after riding around with students all day, I might start being afraid, after they keep trying to lift the dropping wing with the little half steering wheel thing. Then I would probably start telling them not to bank more than 1...

Thanks dhc#.

The statement, “ left behind by the Americans” in the OP made it sound like the US military left planes behind. I thought that sounded crazy.

Re: Buttonville Drone Collision

I’m fairly sure the official response will be that if small planes can’t be operated in such a way as not to adversely affect police operations such as the use of drones, then more restrictions are needed on small aircraft. As for whoever decided to locate an airport close to where drone operations...

I’m probably more concerned about the likelihood that one wing might stall first and drop.

As a vaccinated person, I just don’t see how vaccine passports benefit myself in any way. Can anyone explain it? When you arrive somewhere that wants you to be vaccinated to participate or enter a place, you show them the passport and carry on. Maybe there is no benefit but it would be a quick way ...

Re: Need some night hours

I spoke with Jack.. He has two 172s and a 150. He is definitely doing night training. I might jump ship again. Wether or not I’m ever going to go solo again I might as well save money. I have to fly an extra hour just to do circuits at Springbank.
