Ive had the Leatherman Charge for a long time. Only used the knifes and the screwdriver. I just picked up the Skeletool. It has the Knife that is used all the time and a screwdriver with a spot to store a second driver end. It was nice to see that the belt clip on the end is also there for a bottle ...

Behind Enemy Lines,

I found a VHS copy of Air America and a machine to play the VHS things. So its looking like my vote would be for Air America.

Isn't English the primary language in aviation? A position report is the same call no matter where you make it. 10 min back then 5 final and down and clear are all the standard calls. The only need for more than that is for traffic avoidance. Not to hear your own voice over the radio. Let's keep 26....

With the ridiculous security checks at airports there is even more of a reason to drive across the border.

Either a twin otter, single turbo otter or caravan can all carry at least one quad plus gear.

When I used to work the ramp at YYZ, once I got my airside security clearance The only security I saw was the fingerprint reader to get through the door to airside. My duffle bag was never checked. I brough my backpack to work after a camping trip forgot my hunting knife was still in it. Didnt reliz...

Putting the 206 on floats was thought of after cessna designed it for wheels, the beaver was designed to be put on floats from the start.

Wow,he did a great job keeping that under control.

The grand caravan I fly for a DZ has a pt6 114, 600hp, it burns 100 lbs of fuel per load. Climbing to 14,000 feet I was doing 20 to 25 minute flights with 14 jumpers on board. I average 800 to 1200 fpm climb depending on pax all the way up.

I always use my iPhone in flight to keep operations in the loop of when I'll be down for my next flight. I get signal in the climb until 7,000 to 9,000 feet, I once had signal at 12.5 to send a sunset pic. If I loose signal I get it back on the descent around 4,000 feet but by then I'm on final appr...

2009 NWONT, Sandy Lake, 206 on floats and 207 on wheels, $2500 month, had to buy food and telephone. Accommodations, sat tv, running water and shower in the house along with washer and dryer all supplied. Would I go back, hells ya! The owner and chief pilot were great people to learn from, they had ...

It counts as IFR sim time though right? not total time just ifr sim time.

just go with iridium, it works everywhere.

How much air time are they promising? I dont mean flight time, i mean screen time?

With the amount of space you have inside the 207 i dont see a need for the cargo pod, as it will reduce your speed more that the amount of weight it can take down there unless you are carrying bulky stuff then you might want it to through small stuff in. the cargo pod does not increase the max weigh...

we can usually keep up around 800 - 1000 fpm past 12000 all the way up to 14000 with 15 jumpers on board

heard they got a skyvan to start the season with until a twotter comes from states side.

Watch the weight in the very back. if taking passengers put one in the cojoe seat first then load the rest of the passengers. dont forget the front baggage compartment it can help move the CofG forward. you got the 550 in it? dont let it get too far below 90 on final and fly it onto the runway, dont...

Id start by looking up your local flight school in Quebec.

This was one passenger out of how many on the RJ? So how many are they going to not see on the 757's?

I find it hard to believe they needed to repo 2 - TWO 757 Jets for a 1/2 million dollar debt. I understandd their owed money, but what gives them the right to repo two aircraft worth millions of dollars to cover a debt worth less than 1/6 the value of one of thosee jets? as you are an obvious newco...

Way to go Jazz!

I could only read the first few paragrahs then I got tired and had to take a nap, but this is a huge step for Jazz getting into the bigger stuff.

They have one 206 that they are flyn. makes it fun with no door.

That actually takes talent to do all those near misses
