I think Cat's right...Ottawa is fucked. I mean, they're having a hard enough time with Tampa Bay and they're supposed to be Cup contenders?? I just don't know. :lol: I love it. These only reason Ottawa might have a chance this year is because the mighty Senator Slayers didn't make the cut. Man I ha...

Guaranteed Days Off

Thank you for once again proving your bias Doc. It's not bias. I'm sure that if Cat ever stooped to your level and started a CID bashing thread, one of the Mods would remove it - reluctantly... Now, what's this about someone knowing the top secret identity of CID? Someone please PM me the details!

seminole go for $140 an hour

Buyer beware...

That rate is way below the industry standard. Better do your homework first....

So, YYZ, are you saying that we should just do nothing?

I did not read that in his post.

the US has lower emissions and they didn't sign up....

Positive proof that a stack of paper does not make one environmentally responsible.

cyyz, Just so we're clear, I was not defending the system. I was just offering my opinion on how it works. Regarding insurance, every insurance policy has liability limits. If you are insured for $10 million and are levied with a $20 million judgment, you are on the hook for the balance. And yes you...

'Employment' isn't really relevant in this scenario, it's more an issue of 'permission'. Whether the driver/pilot is an employee/contractor/owner-operator is moot (or is it moo :lol: ). As far as stealing the vehicle, that was not the example we were talking about. I agree we are on the same page on...

if the cab driver is negligent and causes an accident, he may be solely liable Not a chance would he be solely liable. The paying passenger is expecting that the company would not utilize drivers/pilots who would ever be negligent to the point of causing injury. I know in the real world accidents h...

That is a general discrimination and I take offence to it. Not all easterners are mindless morons that like to have money 'removed' from them by a pack of lying thieving self-righteous left winged simpletons - just most....

Some of us are actually capable of rational thought.

I am not Willie Wigwom or whatever his name is (funny guy though).

You know who I mean.

I knew that would soften you up, you crusty ol' bugger.

This is horrible news. That means this months cover is a large geographic formation rather than a scantily clad young woman with large ta ta's.

So what do you consider actually doing bush flying cargo pilot? Kind of hard pinpoint exactly what constitutes 'bush' flying, as already pointed out by Dog. I can however shed some light on what isn't bush flying - instructing. It is not reasonable to say that you can simulate the working condition...

I'm so confused.

cessnafloatflyer; I do not doubt your dedication to your school, I just believe that people can save considerable $$ by avoiding your type (I really do not mean to offend). You simply cannot prepare pilots for what they will experience once they get a real flying job. Sell the float rating, sell blo...

Avro87;

Stay away from the likes of cessnafloatflyer, they just want to separate you from your money. You do not need the crap they are trying to sell you. You will learn more in one day working the ramp at a float base than these clowns could teach you in a lifetime.

There are some old threads in here about this issue - it would be worth your time to do a quick search for them. Bottom line - 50 hour 'bush/advanced float courses' are a joke. Most are being taught by instructors that have never been north of the base they currently teach from, have rarely flown wi...
