Re: "VALID" Group 1 IFR rating ( inlusive of the IPC - instrument proficiency check)
Quick question and direction, finished all my IPC training and next is the “flight test”. Just got hired by an operator flying twins and they’re going to be training me for the PPC on their aircraft (12.500 and under). Should I spend the hundreds on getting the IPC at the school where I finished th...

Re: PPC Piper Navajo 350 (Training times?)
Sounds like this might be your first commercial job, good time to start getting more familiar with the regs and standards that apply to your chosen career, this could be a good exercise for that. You’ll need that skill at some point in your future. Assuming this is a 703 air operator, 723.98 holds t...

Re: Adding a plane to the fleet past calendar TBO
Call your PMI and pitch it at them, but do your math better first and have a far better plan than just to look at the engine for corrosion before buying it. Also make sure you have a good handle on your proposed maintenance schedule for this aircraft, and a plan for what to do when you get it online...

Following this, you get a job, and ...

Table 1’s minimum for initial training on that type of airplane is 7.5hrs ground, 3.0 hrs of flight time. The PCC evaluation flight is in addition to the 3.0 min hours there. What do t...

So if part-time it looks like you basically need 7200 hours logged to make the equivalent of four years full-time, minus any reductions for course credit. Can a log be started before taking a course?

Re: Pilatus PC-6
The likely reason those aren’t freely available is that they’re a paid subscription service to access them. I don’t think the PC-6 is as popular in Canada as you might think. There are a total of only six PC-6 on the Canadian aircraft register under 4 owners, and two AMOs with the PC-6 on their rati...

Re: services, minor repairs vs major repairs
Servicing is defined in CAR 101.01 if I recall correctly. It’s cleaning, lubrication and replenishment of fluids without requiring dismantling to do so. Think fuelling, adding oil, greasing some areas, servicing oxygen. If you work for a 700 series AOC there’s training required 101.01 also has defin...
