The aircraft are for sale. Some of them need just a little bit of work though. Hoist up the right side fuel caps, drive a new airplane underneath, lower the fuel caps and she's ready to fly.

Oh yeah, thats right. Densely packed fuel rags, that's what keeps it in the wing. And they also double as cockpit window cleaners.

Edited for disclaimer....

Everyone on here who knows me knows I'm joking.

Over temping and over Torquing an engine, say, in really bad ice in a caravan would have the same effect on turbine blades...

Do you work for the TSB? The only way to tell if it had been over temped or over torqued is to look at the trend monitor download results.

Do you seriously think TC goes straight to their internet site after pulling an OC to update the info for the travelling public?

I guess it's possible. :shock:

PWA has their OC back now. It has been suspended in the past and they just kept on going as per normal. The loop hole? They didn't charge any money. HMMM...no money for maintenence eh?

If I were to own a pub and the health department shut me down because of an ecoli problem, would it be OK to continue serving the food as long as it was free?

I wonder.

I second that.

Bullshit 130.20. Just because you're disgruntled, upset or annoyed doesn't give you slander-rights.

I've looked through your posts. The vast majority are negative towards pwa.

It's time to move-on.


Hey 2R, I'll bet you that case of blue they work across the bay.

The "across the bay " is in for a little visit and it may not be working there much longer. Anymore than that I cannot say without giving up the source who i swore too that i would not tell .

They were in court today trying to get there OC back and avoid bankrupcy because they were not found responsible for the plane crash. I think TC is trying to get them on other things but i am really sure.
