Re: Inflation is coming...in a big way. Part 3. DEBT CRISIS

You nailed it Pelmet, and with several years ago foresight! Fortunately, I remained in a "essential service" position, and am thankful with my decision!

Re: 2026 Hiring Pool

Hi everyone, I just got my interview results and I’ve been placed in the hiring pool. Is anyone else in the same boat? I’m wondering how long the wait typically is before getting an actual offer. Or... is being 'pooled' just a polite way of saying I didn't get the job? Thanks! You should know what ...

Re: TSB Investigation - Canadian Approach Minimums

To have an area where there is approach ban and another area where there isn't just shows how screwed up the thought process and the law makers implement the rules. Just like FDT there is far too much lobbying and industry influence to make the rules as they should be. Typical Canadian mentality, t...

Re: Multi IFR rating (Starting out on the single)

You could just do a multi-engine rating and then do your IFR in a single/Red Bird SIM. When you do a PPC in a twin-engine aircraft, your Instrument rating then becomes a mult-IFR!

Re: Back into flying

First step, renew your medical, then I think you will need to rewrite the IFR exam, then renew your IFR either in a single or Redbird sim, if you want to keep costs down? A PPC with your new company will renew your single engine to a multi-engine.
