Upper Valley Aviation is seeking one of two types of AME's: -an experienced Beech Turboprop AME as we operate a King Air 200 currently in our Air Charter. or -an AME that is willing and capable of filling the role of Quality Assurance Manager. As the King Air AME we are looking for an engineer that ...

We've used Magworx a dozen times now and have been happy with their service. Aubrey, will go out of his way to deliver mag's to us, by flying them out.. I think it's just an excuse to leave the shop and go flying, but it's great service nonetheless.

We use orange fine line from FBS. I think Lordco carries it, along with a bunch of the autoparts stores. 1 of the keys is to not 'stretch' the fine line over the rivets, Then heat shrink, and press in around the rivets with your fingernails. If you stretch the fineline over the rivets, when you heat...

Upper Valley Aviation, located in Chilliwack BC is currently looking for AME M1's and AME S technicians to add to our organization. We are 30 minutes away from any wildlife and nature, Ski hills within an hour, in any direction and an hour fifteen away from downtown Vancouver, no bridges, decent tra...

If you are a member of the bcga (bc general aviation association.) They have a good map for BC on their website.

Dr Basson in Chilliwack. He's altered his schedule to accommodate me.. and he's a pilot.

Yes.. I meant t2202a.. simple mistake..

Yes you can.. just ask your school for a t2200. I've done it, been audited and been found good. And it was for taking my training same way you are.

Jacks story is pretty interesting. . He got his license a few months before I got mine. . His reasoning for doing the flight was 2 parts. . 1 for the adventure and 1 to look at the northern passage and to see if he could take his jetski through the pass. . (He took his jet ski around vancouver islan...

Just a heads up. I just saw this posted on another forum I frequent. A word of caution to pilots - BC Hydro is now removing marker balls at various span crossings in the province that have been there for years. Some locations have had much smaller marker balls installed which are only visible from a...

after damaging a plane through failure to apply best effort, they should be handed coveralls, a drill and a rivet gun! (And yes, I have seen an instructor so tasked following their second land short accident!) Might want to re-write this... I originally took it as you being condescending to mechani...

No. . Look up the definition of fabrication in transport canadas 51 percent kit evaluation. . This is the same evaluation that the mdra uses. You have to introduce a significant amount of fabrication. Which includes fitting deburring painting and a whole slew of other items. . Be ready to define you...

I was under the impression that my m1 license gives me e and s on m1 category aircraft (if the amo gives me the permission to use my m1 license that way). My s license gives me my s on m1 and m2 category aircraft. An m2 would give me s and e on m2 category aircraft.. So right now I'm working in a sh...

It could be possible depending on what you are doing.. if you were fabricating a whole bunch of items in order to make 51% of the aircraft following the mdra's check sheet. . It could be possible to do. . Most of the time it is done by taking a substantially damaged aircraft and getting the 51% insp...

UVA is under "New management". aka his son has taken over. Very level headed, and decent to work for. I'm an employee there right now. Medical, dental, etc. Pretty decent wages, compared to any of the other companies on the field. I basically get left alone, other than asked, what my goal was for th...

Interiors are the same as the rest of the airplane. . If your airplane was type certified under civil air regulation part 3 revision xx, that is what you're interior has to meet in terms of standards.. but if your airplane was certified under Canadian aviation regulation 5xx, then you have to meet t...

Yes you can do this. If the intention is to fly helicopters commercially, I would do a bit more research about getting a job afterwards. Some employers frown on getting your license this way because supposedly the training isn't as good in the u.s.. I don't know if I believe that or not. I have a fe...

It's the same for ame to pilot. I started as an ame and got my pilots license years later. Same numbers

In Chilliwack.. The only real choice is Principal Air. Jeanette, is a good instructor, very calm. She has a new guy, Steve, that appears will make a good instructor., calm and relaxed. The issues with Chilliwack, is getting the "radio work"... But then you aren't 15 minutes away from the practice ar...

http://www.895thedrive.com/2015/05/01/super-dave-update/ And here is a update and apology from super dave, saying the same as I have been for the past year.. we all have to grow up and work together.. let's hope that he's sincere and everyone on the "otherside" thinks the same way. We all are just t...

I've flown to Pitt and Been asked to stay out of the zone for 10 minutes because there is aerobatics going on.. I think it makes sense. It's a safe way to control a hazardous situation. I don't know if it's legal but it sure makes sense to me. Way safer than having someone doing aerobatics at an un...
