Re: Give your head a shake!!!

Was also looking down south for a plane for the simple fact there are only so many airplanes of the type I am looking for and the price is an issue. I also feel things are a little overpriced here.

Does an airplane with a missing log make it impossible to import?
any input is appreciated

Re: Why Employers Don't Post Wages

I see in a recent job posting for Sky North in winnipeg they posted the salary, which for a king air gig is not too bad. I don't know anything about SkyNorth, but at least they are up front with the salary

Re: Ice Pilots - Season 3

Just watched this week's soap.. A few comments/questions, generally in chronological order.. Hard not to feel happy for Larry when Mikey gives him the news of his upgrade - genuine enthusiasm and emotion there. So if the -46 is such a bear, why land it downwind as Gord did at ?Norman Wells? Mainten...

Re: Turbine licence requirements?

Interestingly enough, if you were an Ag pilot, and were going to be flying turbines, you would be required to go to Florida to take a course for about $3K. Otherwise, you would not be insurable. This is regardless of experience. My 10000+ hrs means nothing. I'd still have to fly a simulator and lea...

Re: just an other IATRA Q
