Courtenay Flight Center

[sar]

Hey just wondering if anyone knows anything about the operation there?

working wise, good, bad , etc

[sounder]

Rumour has it that they lost their OC.

That would screw up the Cadet contract

[AJV]

They don't have the cadet contract.

Anyone know how J.S. is doing these days?

[Spokes]

Last time I saw him, maybe a couple weeks ago he seemed to be doing quite well. I was quite surprised at how quick he was getting around.

Thought i would bump this up again.

I just moved to the valley and am looking to rent an aircraft.
anybody have any experience dealing with them?

the airplanes look pretty beat but the staff seems friendly.
i haven't had a chance to look at the logbook numbers.

I would like to know if you recommend them or not.

thanks for any help.

If you know of anybody else doing block time or looking for partners please let me know.

thanks

[Ralliart]

Yes, would recommend them.

Haven't been around there in a few years, but when I was involved there, it was a good atmosphere and the planes had very good maintenance. Jim runs a good operation.

There is also Discovery West in Campbell River, 2 150s and 2 172s.
