As far as the flight department shutting down, that has been an ongoing rumor for the last year, possibly more. There was quite a bit of talk last year about selling the jet, but it hasn't been sold yet. They run a good operation over there, and I have an immense amount of respect for Renee.

Best of luck to keeping the ship floating. Calgary is laying off a bunch of people from the office. Somewhere around 75% I am led to believe. Whether this effects the flight department, we will have to wait and see.

Cheers

Thanks for breaking the news. You don't know what the f*** you are talking about.

I hope that you are being sarcastic or that you are a mechanic.

Ps. Renee is a girls name, Rene Lavoie is the manager.

Hmm, troll? In what context, could you explain? As in my butt-ugly face? Or that I like to fish? Or the opposite of "pre troll"?

Well of course they are silly! It wouldn't be very safe if we transported passengers with the DOORS OPEN, now would it? well allow me to just quote the smartest guy I know... :roll:

The context is that I get pissed off at people who make up or expand stories. I think I am allowed to call rat if I see one.

You profess to be a cab driver, yet you are posting on an aviation message board, name calling, on a thread you obviously know nothing about. You must be looking to stir things up.

I like my apples at FL410.

Yeah, sure. There's a difference between seeing something incorrect and correcting the situation and just telling them they "don't know what the f*** they are talking about". And that pisses me off, among others. And you dare to call me a troll after making a comment like that?

You are so far off the mark buddy, it ain't funny. Makes it sound like you don't even read any of the forums yourself. Take a poll; find out how many guys have a CPL, and having just finished/continuing their education or not, they are working non-aviation jobs. Doesn't mean a thing. Name calling!? Show me where. And know nothing about, you say!? I know enough to see that you have little to no tact or people skills whatsoever. Far easier to fire off an elementary schoolyard reply, than to disagree with someone using "grown-up words" and explain why their information is off base, isn't it? And that last line is laughable. Try looking in the mirror.

:lol: Sure man. Your posts in this thread do nothing to convince anyone that you've ever been that high, even as a passenger.

Uh oh... :roll: I can hear the reply already... don't bother, allow me.

Flyin' hack,

Nice to know you know how to use the quote button. Good for you!!

tripleseven,

Couldn't come up with anything better to say than my use of quotes? I'd be careful if I were you... with only 5 posts to your name, bezerker is liable to label you a troll too. Unless you're alright with that.

P.S. You're entitled to your wrong opinion; doesn't hold much weight or water anyway. In all likelihood, both your account and bezerkers are 2nd or 3rd accounts on this system anyway, since you feel you need a different handle for slagging others on the forums. If that's how you get your kicks, go ahead...
