Re: doug ronan removed as director from copa
Perhaps we should send these pages along with a petition to Kevin "putty" Psuka and ask for his resignation, I will also not renew my copa membership which comes due in April. There are already enough of us in this thread that at the very least should shed some light on how why he should be removed ...

Re: Verifier

Operator certificate status
Can anyone direct me to the link where one can check the status of a operators certificate, ie whether it is current or suspended. I know there is a way but navigating through Transports site just drives me nuts

Someone posted earlier not sure if it was on this board or not about vnc charts being hard to come by especially the Sault and Thunderbay ones. Anyone have any luck on getting these, the last poster mentioned even the flight schools were resorting to photo copied versions for their students. Thanks FB
