Post by canadadry »

Hi,

I'd just like to know if there are companies operating SEVFR flights in northern Alberta ( north of GP ) ?

Thanks.

Up in High Level I think Airborne has a bunch of 206's they use for pipeline patrol and hot shots. Are you looking for work or just saw something that made you curious?

I was just curious to see if there were commercial VFR flights in this area, not really looking for full time job, mostly opportunities to get 1 or 2 months contract, something like that ...

Thanks for the reply !

I haven't heard of anyone doing one or two month contracts with Airborne or Nor-Alta.

McMurray Aviation in Fort Mac.

Good ambiance, solid organization, nice people. The only drawback is where they are located.

I am still trying to reach the point in my career where I no longer have to work out of any town that has Fort, Port or Saint in front of its name :wink:

Same here,

I'd rather go where they say San or Santa instead of Saint. Starting with El instead of Fort should also be better. If it has Lake or River in the name, I'm out!

I think I know you..from the other side of the field. Somehow you don't strike me as the type that has ever flown out of anywhere starting with the above names.
Don't you have something to do with our pretend Navy? Maybe that is where you think you have "worked" out of port !!
