Re: Save Canadian Aviation March in Ottawa Oct 20th

If you're under 40, go back to school and retool for a different career...just in case.

If you're over 40, get a truck driving license, and pay your bills.

Re: Covid-19 impact of float operations

It's game over.. Until it's game on... This isn't going to last forever, we'll all be eating KD this year but everything will surge back hard as the restrictions are lifted.
