Re: Expecting a baby but want to be a pilot
Maybe work on your PPL now, have that... then take a bit of time off when you have your baby. Rent a bit here and there when they area few months old, build a bit of time. Then when they are the age you feel OK leaving them with a sitter regularly go finish your CPL. You could be done fairly fast.

Re: Falsifying a commercial aircraft logbook
Small charters do this so they keep hours down and less inspections needed. Tell your friend to quit. Why is he not entering the hours himself in the logs? Is management keeping them locked away?

Re: Seaplane down in China
Well that's a sure fire way to bury any future of float flying in China for the next few years...
Really sad.

Avoid Montair. That's all I know. Can't comment on the other two.

Re: proifr review...will be landing in Vancouver soon
1) there are positive and negative reviews for every school. Usually due to instructor. Don't set your sights on just one school. When you arrive do a tour of all the local schools. They should all spend at least .5-1hr walking you around, showing you the planes, maintenance and going over school fe...

Re: Go figure
They're already understaffed, why would this make sense? Tbay and Winnipeg had NOTAMS the other day stating delays in receiving IFR clearances by up to (IIRC) 15 minutes due to understaffing. Yeah, lets fund them even less. Makes sense. ^ This. "No training" - notams due to limited capacity are get...

Re: Jazz hiring in 2017
Most certainly a base realignment with the possible reopening of the YVR RJ operation as there jets shift out of YYZ is the big rumour. I'm crossing my fingers for a CPA revision and CS100's. But I think that's a bit pie in the sky. Could we see AC start to focus more on International routes over t...

Not 100%, but I think it's set up as a King Air 200? Friend did a sim there last year I think that's what he said. But again.. not %100.

Re: Any Pilot/Ame Jobs?
You should look into a place like Borek. If that's your thing. I'd imagine them having an AME/pilot would help with remote operations.

^ Insurance coverage? In general, I'm pretty sure that I'd want a bunch of experience from my pilots if I were operating SPIFR in the mountains out west... How do you equate total time to repevant experience? Would you take someone with 2500 hours in the Prairies or 1000 hours in the mountains? I k...

Ah yes, my brain read "ON" when I glanced at it.
Tradewinds in NY and FL have much much lower times for Cpt on the PC12 than this then... if were comparing USA to USA.
