I have some time in the Cirrus SR22 and know guys with lots of time in both the SR20 and SR22. What would you like to know?

You don't need a Commercial License to tow gliders. I started towing with a PPL and 100 PIC. I was a glider pilot with a private club prior to getting my PPL so I had some connections. Had a great time towing and being part of the club.

I spent 4 hours in a Cirrus SR22 GTS in Ottawa last week. Totally awesome machine.

So on the Serengeti's, which lense? Sedona (Rose), 555nm(Grey) or the Drivers (Brown)?

Yes all you need is the Conditional PPL. Which when I got it back in 2000 didn't cost anything and only took 15 minutes. Sounds like it is longer now because of the security checks. Up to 90 days. Same day I got the PPL I went to North Las Vegas to rent an Arrow to fly myself and a couple of buddies...

Clodhopper, As I tried to explain there are 2 types of PPL: 1. Conditional FAA PPL that is dependant on your Canadian PPL and Medical. For this just make an appointment with the nearest FSDO. They will tell you what documentation that would be required. 2. A full FAA PPL that stands on its own and d...

Flown this many times to minimums. All on MS Flight Sim . Now if I could just find a way to log all that Sim time...

As Flybabe posted go to the closest FSDO fill out a form and they give you a FAA PPL that is conditional on your Canadian License and Medical. I was on business in Las Vegas and wanted to rent a plane to fly to the Grand Canyon. Walked in to the FSDO 15 minutes later walked out with the PPL. FAA did...

"Mile High" would probably be a real winner. Remember seeing something on TV about Nexjet in TO offering this in their 310.

TeeKay, Thanks for your informative posts. Sounds like a mountain of red tape, but not insurmountable. I_reason, "thirsty, sluggish" Just wondering in reference to what? We get 8.5 USG\hour @ 140 Kts and I have never found it to be sluggish. With the Gear down and 10deg of flaps it flies nicely at 9...

CASARA sounds like a worthy cause. I'll look into it. I just signed up with Hope Air. Just need the weather to start cooperating. Nice to be able to do community service work with the plane. Moose spotting eh. Can't say I thought of that one. Assume doing sight seeing flights requires an OC? Could d...

I should have been more specific, I would like to be the one flying it. So FTU, block time and leasing aren't quite what I was looking for. Pipeline patrol could be an option. Anybody know how to go about getting into that? What altitude & speed do they usually fly at? Would fire spotting be an opti...

I live in Southern Ontario and own a Cessna Cardinal RG. I am looking for some ideas on how to generate some income with this plane (Legally!). I have thought about aerial photography, maybe teaming up with a survey company. I think the plane is too small and too limited for charters and cargo. Any ...

Hedley, You make some good points. Unfortunately I don't have a pile of dough to buy and operate any aircraft I like. I would love to be in the same position as Ottawa guy with the Spitfire. I think I have met the guy you are referring to. Did he have a Beech Stagger Wing also? I guess at the end of...

ZLIN 142C,

Congrats on your CPL. Good luck on your adventure to make it happen.

Cheers

At 15 in the Air Cadets at summer camp in Bagotville one day we were told we were going to get a flight in an Otter. We showed up at the plane and my fellow cadets took a quick count of the passenger seats and quickly realized that there weren’t enough seats. Being the smallest kid I got pushed to t...

(ii) is for the purpose of sharing costs for fuel, oil and fees charged against the aircraft in respect of the flight, as applicable.

Some posts have said that the costs have to be split equally but (ii) doesn't say that. So split the costs 99\1 That's still sharing.

Anybody get this job or is it still open? I never got a call but maybe someone else got lucky. Sounds like a great gig.

Cheers,

I'd like to be a lifer antwhere with turbo prop.

Thanks for the info.

Anybody know if Vector Air is still in operation in Peterborough? They used to fly a King Air 100.

Link work fine for me...

Thanks to everyone who posted. I had searched the message boards for info on the company. All good stuff good boss\equip\pay\sched. etc. Some interesting speculations on my post. Been contacted, haven’t been? Investigating before or after being contacted. I have learned so much about investigative e...
