SkyQuest Aviation in Langley ran a great program when I was there. It has been a few years, but the CFI knew his stuff and the planes were always kept in good shape.

gwagen, Before you go ahead and anoint yourself judge, jury and executioner, maybe we should let the TSB do their investigation. While this was a terrible accident and now a very sad tragedy with the addition of a fatality, let the outcome be determined by professionals. The couch potato peanut gall...

Skyservice is not the owner. They simply hold the management contract and lease agreement. Common for all management companies.

I know that Anderson Air uses Sovereigns and Falcons now for charter work out of the Landmark FBO. You could try them to see if they can accommodate your needs.

It is not alphabetical but you can use the search function to find Spokane.

There are quite a few CAME's at Ultima Medical in Richmond. I believe you can get a FAA medical there.

As was mentioned, you can file a no alternate IFR flight plan. However, you need Ops Spec 83 to be approved on your OC. Here is the link to the wording:

tdk,

In my experience, it took one week to hear back from HR after my video interview. My in person interview was approx two weeks after that.

Am still waiting for a response, but a friend heard back within 10 days of his in person interview.

Hope this helps.

If you are currently a type 2 diabetic (still holding a valid Cat 1 medical) are you able to pass the Air Canada medical?

You can also check out SkyService, Air Partners (Aircraft Works is the AMO I believe) and AirSprint. All have bases in Calgary.

West Wind has a rotation again for the King Air's out of Stony.

Anyone have any insight into PasCo's Captain wages, working conditions and benefits?

Thanks.

Have heard that West Wind has bought out Transwest. Any truth to this rumour? Any pilot layoffs as a result of the merger if it has happened?

Horizon, not that this is helpful to you. But, would you mind telling me if you are on the PML at Jazz or are you an external candidate?

Morning Kenton, Good for you for asking the questions before jumping in. I was in the same boat when I transitioned to aviation. I was 30 yrs old with a family and a full time job. I went the instructor route because it gave me an opportunity to build hours working part time while still keeping my r...

Two things to add: 1. We had a brake failure on final in a JetStream 31 once. The check was in the checklist...was sure good to be able to warn the ground crew we'd be without normal brakes. 2. On the Cessna jets, a brake check IS in the Cessna checklist. I don't believe this holds true though for t...

What I have been hearing is that the Suncor flt dept is not shutting down. Suncor appears to be consolidating all of their subcharter work with one company...namely WestJet. All of the smaller carriers they have been using will now be replaced with one carrier.

JTrain, the Oct 19 GS is still happening. I have a friend who was notified 10 days ago or so that he was in that class.
