Re: North star
Calm Air doesn't know you have to clear the ice out of the engine intake, North Star doesn't know you have to clear it off the wing. Both operate 705 like bush plane. At least it is only freight. why would you say something like that with no argument, in such an arrogant way thinking you are all mi...

Re: West Wind Aviation
Well.. looks like the CP was the one that bit the dust..bobcaygeon wrote:Technically you are correct but "Lack of operational control" finding points very clearly at only one person. The CAR is very clear on that.

Re: West Wind Aviation
i agree that the DFO is "Ultimately" responsible for the operations including Ops Control, but the CP is responsible for training, the CP is a post holder possition and findings do not go "Against" anyone.. any how hopefully they get up and running soon enough and i am sure some heads will roll rega...

Re: West Wind Aviation
CP's are ultimately responsible for training and maintenance of training records are they not? Not in TC's eyes -- under SMS it will fall back to the "Accountable Executive" and the DFO or VP of flight Ops/Maintenance -- in reality a CP is a pretty insignificant part of it, the DFO's stenographers,...

Re: First Air
Pretty ignorant statement!! an accident can happen to anyone, including you and me. i don't fly for FA but i can tell you that they didn't just "Fly the plane into a hill" like you said.
you should think twice before posting comments like that

Re: Beren's Band roasts air ambulance service in the media
landing a jet at night in Beren's? i don't think thats a great idea even a tub prop is sketchy..like some guys said it before instead of blaming the pilots this should be a wake up call and increase the runway by 1000'.

Re: 1 in 50 FA rule compromises safety. TC Sunwing test
Having only 1 FA for every 50 pax is a huge breach of safety, a study conducted by Harvard showed that 5 out of 5 times, Carriers with Ops Spec 070 (One flight attendant per 50 passengers), compared to those in compliance with 705.104 had a delay of 210 seconds on the delivery of peanuts to the pass...
