Re: Edmonton 40 story hi rise---- city centre airport??
I assume you are talking about the Stantec tower, which will be 3.8m taller than the now under construction Brookfield Place tower in YYC.

Re: Air Canada Rouge to Begin Toronto Direct to Honolulu
Has there been any mention of the YYC-OGG/HNL winter ops changing to Rouge?
I have heard that it ties in nicely (aircraft availability) with the YYC-NRT flight and that is why it stayed as a mainline 763 last year.

Re: Ice Pilots Started
saw Electra show last night. Nice job the crew did. I believe the pilot first flying made a good choice to let the more experience person do the landing. Did they repair that aircraft or was it written off for parts Did Ray retire after ? He seemed to be another very good person who had years of fl...

Re: Fairly intense small plane crash from inside; everyone l
So, just out of interest If you absolutely have to go into some trees (unlike this guy) what's the best plan? Controlled level flight into them at as slow a speed as possible? Cut the mixture/power and glide into them? Try and stall into them? They seem to have a fairly high survival rate as long a...

Re: Fairly intense small plane crash from inside; everyone l
Sure looked like the plane really didn't like being out of ground effect, he would get it up there and she would just keep settling. The really disturbing part is just how long the PIC let this keep going on for, instead of just putting her down. I didn't time it but it looks like at least a minute ...
