Spring will come eventually and you can plant some root vegetables.

Yikes, I thought beer was over priced in YYC.

True even with the Sask sales tax the commute might bump up the costs. They were hoping there might be at least a couple of ultralight instructors near by. astroguy is even further in Ontario. You never know though. Sometimes talking to someone leads to talking to someone else and you find out there...

I know, the title specifies no instruments, but... I thought a big part of taking instrument training was to avoid stalls and spins.

Here they almost seem to be presented as some sort of cloud solution tool.

Of course. I think the fellow wants to save money though. I'm not picking a side because if I was looser with my purse strings I might be flying today instead of pounding keys here.

Also once I board an ultralight it might not fly or it may become just a light.

I'm going to speak out and say every man would prefer not to have their prostate removed. I am fairly confident that is never a recreational procedure. At any rate, I suspect you will just need to find out what TC will ask for and how they will treat you. It seems like every case is different. The p...

Is this going to be a huge list?

I better add soft drinks, pizza and BBQ.

I like motorcycles but sorely neglect the poor things. My wife says I should only rent them. Don't tell her but, she's probably right.

we did it for fun

thansk

Fun and sandwiches are a couple of my greatest motivations.

Never, but I hardly fly and on the rare occasion I do I'm in some rental so those are probably factors.

I don't know what happened to astroguy. He was posting some of his adventures in his little plane. Looked fun and sounds like what you'd like to do.

Here's an example from the home builder's forum here.

I suppose cancelling due to lack of crew might help you get reimbursed. If so bonus. I was providing anecdotal evidence to support complexintentions factual inference that going on a trip and flying with any airline, might leave one looking for a place to stay longer. Because full-fare airlines neve...

Am I the only one that has had to get out my credit card, go to a hotel and order pizza because my return flight was cancelled due to weather riding with Air Canada? There was no pity from the carrier. "Sorry, flight's cancelled due to weather. Not our fault." Next day everything was unsure, so I go...

That's harsh rookie. I can't fully imagine, I have a daughter the same age.

I honestly hope time will heal you to the point of being able to get back to full emotional strength.

I'm sure nothing will happen but they are not supposed to just flight plan for a number of souls on board then have an extra one. The point of that is if there is a accident and someone wanders off SAR knows to ground search for them. Flight plan says 9 souls on board and we count 7, where are the o...

I know the regulations of the EASA or FAA because they speak clearly but your regulation is so confusing and nobody knows what they say.

That's how Transport Canada likes it. Keeps everyone on their toes.

That's a tough one. Part of me thinks, "Go, take lessons and have some fun."

I am almost leaning toward, "Don't get addicted until you have a medical and know it won't be taken away."

For me it is tough to quit flying. I really should, I just can't seem to do it enough to stay current.

The problem with things like yelp and other online rating sites is, if a person is happy they just carry on but if something goes wrong they are angry and make sure they put it out to warn everyone and punish the place. I'm not saying there might not be issues but a few people complaining is expecte...

Anecdote. The only time I got a really great spin in a Cessna 172 was after I had been away for a while during my PPL training. My instructor asked me to demonstrate a stall and recovery, then as I raised the nose without pulling the throttle to idle he commented, "Woo, he's going for one with power...

Define sick I guess. :vom: I can't see any issue with a heads up,"Someplace tower, I'm flying solo as my partner is a little under the weather. Anticipate no difficulties..." If I ran a company and anyone on board was really ill, I would suggest a Pan Pan and as long as I wasn't running the finances...

Earn seniority for when it flips back and the cheap ass places are the only ones still flying?

Neat. I was reading along thinking, "Wait, the blue book isn't mandatory yet?"

Then I got to a post by Just Curious and figure out what was going on. I miss that guy even though he didn't like me. Rest in peace bud.

PM read. Small glass of scotch drank.

Remember to get the night time requirements too.

It would really suck if you hit one.

Sure would

(Caus we would have to dissect all the details in an accident forum)

It was a vacuum joke brah.

Anything like the red hand warmer with the charcoal, mine actually has one of those. Let me look for a link if they still exist. I had a bottle of scotch and some Mountain Dew here but I eventually had to drink it because you never showed up. Edit 1 - Slightly different and useless for survival but ...
