Excellent observation. Emergency or not, I knew it would be listed on TC's site. hytymes ______________________________________________________ Record #1Cadors Number: 2007O2409 Reporting Region: Ontario Occurrence InformationOccurrence Type: Incident Occurrence Date: 2007/11/15 Occurrence Time: 043...

Sleazy Wafflebutt

Battling a gusting crosswind on final. The reassuring brush of my instructor's arm, in the cramped cockpit, as I pull back the power nearing the threshold. A gratifying "good" heard in my headset as the wheels meet the center line. Flaps coming up and doing it all over again. I'm stuck in the circui...

Speaking as a student, might I suggest teaching VA as well. Why it increases with weight. I couldn't figure that out until it was explained to me.

This Flight Tonight Lyrics » Nazareth If you get a chance listen to the original version by Joni Mitchell! Keeping it Canadian... I've always loved Ian Thomas' 'Pilot'. Not really an aviation song, but great chorus. Pilot - Ian Thomas One by one they disappeared The minds of science, the nation's l...

I thought the same thing... I run out the door when I hear the Lancaster flying around my neighborhood.

Mr. Fiorito's reply...

Jamin -
we disagree.
by the way, I had no choice but to attend.
the planes flew so low over our houses that we could read their wing markings.

Grrrrr, I was so angry while writing him, I hope it's coherent. Sir, I am offended that you speak so derogatorily about the Canadian International Air Show yet you did not attend. Had you been there, perhaps you would have seen what was an awe inspiring display of technological achievement, an amazi...

Wow! F22 was a sight to behold. Mind numbing maneuverability at almost zero airspeed. Went Sunday, not a cloud in the sky. http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/6333/heritageflightph2.jpg I have a new respect for aerobatics and precision flying and Patty Wagstaff, Mike Wiskas, John Mohr and Rick Volker...

Is it correct to turn from crosswind to downwind before reaching circuit altitude and climb in the DW or should i climb crosswind to circuit altitude before turning DW and be so far from the airport that i would never make it back to the runway if engine fails? I'm not going to claim to "know" anyt...

Yes, I just picked up my second one. The styrofoam tail split on the first after the second charge and the flight characteristics were never the same. Kudos to toyrus and the no hassle exchange. Ornathopters are cool! Great idea for a toy, however I wouldn't want to pilot a life sized version. Very ...

I'm training in Burlington. I chose Burlington because it is convenient and works with my circumstances. I am happy with their operation, facilities, instructors, instructor availability and aircraft. The practice area is fairly close by, even for a 152. Most of my exercises are completed in 1.1 - 1...

PM me if you are looking for a ramp job. I really appreciate the offer. A change to the aviation career would be an incredible move, maybe a chance to finally do something I love. However, I fly a 75 Ton crane for Magna Int. and it pays three times a ramp wage, so I think I'm stuck. Besides, not ma...

Welcome to the wonderful world of aviation. I'll have to make a trip down the road and pay you a visit some time.

Well today I was finally forced out of the lurkers closet after 1 month of membership, so I'll take an opportunity to quickly introduce myself. In the past month I've really enjoyed the knowledge and humour provided by all the members here at AVCAN. Seems like a very good group of people. I have had...

Yes. Perhaps accompanied by a 'buyer/seller feedback' forum as well to give kudos (or, heaven forbid, warnings) when deserved. Works well in other forums I belong to.
