Re: Snowbird personnel records.

When I read the title "Snow personnel records" I assumed this would be about how the records were put on a thumb drive and lost by a government employee! :rolleyes: On a more serious note, the Snowbirds kick ass and are an awesome Canadian icon. Lets just hope we still have them around in the years ...

Re: Media advisory:Air Canada to Present its New Leisure Car

I wonder if the pilots in other countries laugh at the stupid names some of our carriers have

"Jazz" was bad enough, now "Rouge" Sounds like they are paying Steven and Chris from CBC to come up with the names

and not to be biased "Encore" ain't the best either

old TSB reports

I searched the entire TSB website, emailed them, trying to find out how I can access copies of old accident reports. Its quite easy to access them in the US, but not that easy here. Last I heard all accident reports should be accessible to the public. Maybe I am missing an obvious link or something....
