Re: direct drive engine?
I doubt you've ever seen anything like it. It started out life as a Harvard Mk 4 at CanCar. 20+ years ago, it was modified by George Baker with clipped wings (3 feet off each side), retractable P-51 tailwheel, custom fairings, custom cowling, 46 inches of manifold pressure, enormous geared 3 blade ...

Re: TC medical..how long?
I ran into a similar issue, mine took 6 weeks to come back. I just went to my family doctor (or the one who did your medical if you want) and got him to fill out a Cat 4. medical form and took that in to the school and used that for my solo. Then I brought in my Cat 3. when it finally came back.

Re: 767 and winglets
I was at the Boeing Everett plant for a tour last weekend and the guide almost scoffed when someone asked about winglets. He said "Those are old technology... it is all about the raked wings now, like on our 787 and the new 747-8..."

Re: GPS --- av8or or Anywhere Map Travel Companion
I just bought the Av8tor and I love it. It is very easy to read both in flight and in the car. Some people have complained about the backlight not being bright enough in direct sunlight. I think anything you shine direct sunlight on will be hard to read. I have only used it for one flight so cannot ...

Re: NEXUS Card - Anyone Have One?
My father-in-law has one and loves it. Off topic but I found interesting.... I guess it has RFID in the card and CBSA gave him a metal lined card cover for it. Guess they are worried about liability if someone was able to steal info.

Re: Ms Excel Wizards for Logbook Help
Adam, the approach used in your logbook is going to pose issues in the long run: you have to copy more "pages" regularly, what if you want to add fields? change the formatting? For a logbook, you'd ideally want an actual database, where you keep the formatting on the data to a minimum, and use repo...

Re: Westjet's December OTP worse than Air Canada
I gotta ask something I've always wondered. Why doesn't the Airport Authority show some leadership and close the doors to the airport when flights start piling up. If no one is leaving anyway and passengers are starting to overlap and fill all the departure lounges and baggage is not being sorted e...
