Oh - Ok, so that was the rule at one time though? Absolutely correct, but that was back in the day we had to do a Senior Commercial before we got our ATPL. :wink: It all went out the window with the old ANOs. For the younger crowd around here (gees, even I make myself feel old... :mrgreen: ), befor...

IFRATC, I understand the limitations of the Canadian system, and to a certain point the "resistance" in the GTA to facilitate the transit of VFR traffic. But - and this is NOT an attack on any individual or group - I seriously think YYZ suffers from Biggest airport in the country syndrome. I regular...

For privately owned and registered aircraft, there is no requirement for a checkout.... insurance on the other hand.... Anti, close but no cigar mate ;-) It is 100% correct to say that for single pilot/non high performance airplanes in privates hands there is no training requirements, things change...

Actually, I don't think that's quite true. For PPL, I think you are limited to 7 or 8 pax and a certain gross weight. HS, Not quite true. There is NO pax limits nor weight limits for a Private pilot. Private pilots can fly any airplanes rated on their licenses. 401.26 The holder of a private pilot ...

Je ne me souvient pas exactement quand c'etait, mais Transport avait une date butoir pour faire valoir vos qualifications linguistiques sans test ou frais. Cette date fut publie dans les "Nouvelles Aeronautiques" que transport nous envoi par la poste. Maintenant que ce date est passe, chaque pilote/...

Hundreds of Can UPP fly to Oshkosh each year. KOSH is a totally different issue all together. The EAA negotiates a bunch of waivers with the FAA that applies to any EAA members. When I first started to go with the CJ, I would be issued a CofA validation by the EAA which was valid only for my KOSH t...

I haven't flown either type, so I can't really comment on either. However, since you should buy an airplane for 80% of the flight need, I would seriously consider a Jet. 1000nm with 6 to 8 pax is somewhat a serious load. Now a days, there are plenty of good Jets available for great prices. If the cl...

Seth, En general, les gens doivent avoir confiance avant de preter leur avion. La confiance ca vient avec le temp et faut prendre le temp de rencontrer les gens en personnes et non seulement sur internet. Rien contre AvCananda, mais si les sites de chat, les forums et les email etaient aussi bon que...

Oui, ca s'appelle un aeroport...

Il y a des gens qui vendent des blocs d'heures sur leur avion, d'autre qui le prete simplement. Par contre, souvent le probleme est que les gens ne "prete" pas leur avions a nimporte qui. La pluspart du temps, ils les prete ou vende un bloc d'heures a des pilotes qu'ils connaissent. Vue qu'ils ne so...

Dans ce cas, saute a pieds joints mon cher.

Avant de depenser ton argent trop trop vite, n'oublie pas qu'il faut avoir 18 ans AVANT d'obtenir ta license de pilote proffessionnel. Je ne te connais pas, mais si fini ton secondaire en juin (puisque tu viens d'appliquer au CQFA) ca ne sert peut-etre a rien de courrir puisqu'il te faudra attendre ...

+1 on Rockie, BTD and Altiplano The wx at destination is not a real factor in the decision to commence a flight. As long as you have a legal alternate and the takeoff minimums, you can go. 100% legal. Now, this being said, there is much more involved with the go/no go decision. The biggest one might...

C'est toi qui fait ton horraire. Tu vole aussi souvent ou aussi peu que tu veut (ou que ton portefeuille te permet). Faut que tu trouve le juste millieu pour TOI. Si tu ne vole pas asse frequament, tu perd du temps et de l'argent. Si tu vole trop souvent, tu peut faire un plateau et perdre du temp. ...

Don't the Russian engines have to be monitored for cooling? (Fouga will step in to answer that I'm sure.) The engines have the series of cooling vanes in front that need to be managed.
