Re: Skyservice Business Aviation Sold

No, not really. I had some disagreements with some individuals there-those things are in the past. I should not have said what I did on this forum and I do sincerely apologize for the comments. I know it's a shi^^y excuse but a little resentment can go a long way with some alcohol. I am sorry, I'm n...

Re: sioux lookout

YTH-It was the city I didn't like. Too many,,,,ummm,,,"social problems." I don't want to get back into that kind of situation-drunks walking out in front of you in traffic, going to the liquor store and not making it back to your car with all your booze lol.

Re: sioux lookout

I'm down here in YYZ right now, not really liking the city too much...I love to hunt/quad etc. But I also used to work in Thompson MB in the '80s and THAT didn't work out. Just trying to find a place sort of in the middle, ya know? Not too busy, not too slow

Re: maintenance signoff; when

Wrenches is right. Take an ELT for example, it'll need to be recertified again whether it sits on the shelf or is in the aircraft. Whatever date the recertifying AMO put on the ELT is when time starts. If you used your logic you could have it sit on the shelf for 10yrs, then install it, and 2 years ...

Re: The easter bunny is dead... (snap on killed it)

My crappy T roller in my garage is falling apart tho, and the furthest it's gone is the street lol. I even lost the keys to one of my snap-on rollers and my dealer ord...
