Green Hornet must have been turned down from a dock job there and that is why he is so bitter about this operation. Good people, good times from what I have heard, minus a little shit around the base, but you get that everywhere.

Try again Patrick ..... obviously you were never employed there so I guess you really have nothing to add. I was asking because I know several dock guy / pilots that got screwed there so I was curious to hear from people who WORKED there ..... not your theories.

If you worked there great if not ... well don't worry about it I am just interested in facts ..... not theory but thanks anyway...

If you pop your cowling and all you see is "Mopar" you might be working for KAS.

My friend who was a pilot there said kind of the same thing ... maintainence was iffy at best. I know they have a lot of junk out back of the hangar they use for parts. I also was told that the cook who worked at one of thier camps got screwed for wages.

They made the door bigger so I hear she can get out once in awhile. She hasn't been to Lount Lake for several years because she cannot get up the steps into the Otter, I am sure the Otter would get her off the watter .... she just can't get up the stairs.

I have heard from some other dock guys that only if someone quits ( which usally happens ) do they get on an a/c in the summer they start. There was some guy named "Mooky" there this summer Benny was dicking around so that is why I am asking.

Hey Green Hornet I can't afford to keep the trailer I'm living in and buy booze so I'm selling it and going back to sleeping in my car.

You want to buy the trailer?

Well if you bothered to read my above posts you'd have realized I did work there and I do know Benny along with everyone else. Again you failed to enlighten us with an example of him 'dicking people around' which makes your accusations all the more incredible.

Did you by chance work at Showalters (briefly)? And was that you flying NOT?

Who is this Green Hornet guy. He must have been around kenora this past summer and KAS because he has alot of fresh Bullsh!t. Im sure hes spent a night in the hilton or perhaps is on trailer. Im sure one of U 2nd street dockers knows who he is.

revaeb who he is is really unimportant and I very much doubt that he will have a large group here supporting his style.

But he does bring a new meaning to the word pathetic.

Well, Shadow/Green Hornet: I've been listening quite patiently to all the the things you been "told" about Kenora Air. Now its your turn to listen to a couple of things I've been told...

I was told that Kenora Air did make one colossal mistake last year. They hired this big mouth braggart to fly out of Misaw Lake without checking his references. He got up there and couldn't cut it, had to bail out before the end of the contract. He was more than capably replaced by a 500 TT kid (you know, one of those kids that GH was railing about on another forum). I'd be willing to bet that if the owner of Misaw Lake Lodge had to choose between the big mouth "supposedly" high time pilot and the 500 TT kid, he'd pick the kid hands down.

Now why don't you jump on your fancy bike that you like to brag about and slink off to your hole in Arizona or Timmins or wherever you go when it snows? It's quite obvious to everyone here what your motive is. And take your imaginary friends with you.

Well I certainly would not go to Timmins when it snows I hear it gets just as cold there as it does in Winnipeg.

Arizona here I come shortly.

I have no idea about the bike thing nor do I know where the hell you think I work but, carry on.

One thing about you couple of flunkies here you are predicatble.

Listen Brain when things don’t go are way we don’t cry. Un like this summer, things didn’t go your way so you made a big seen about it. Shit happens and you deal with it.

Your whole post is way out there ...
"we arn't THE dumb hillbillys THAT you think we are .. "We work hard for OUR money ..... And (never start a sentence with AND) ......"so stop RAISING A stink" ........"life. ( always end a sentence with a period ).

Oh, and I believe the guy you are refering to is BRIAN, not Brain.
