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.

Re: Northern operator as a first job?

Don't miss out of the opportunity to fly the bush (Big Tires, Floats, Skis) in a Twin Otter! You will only do it once in your career if you're set on the airlines, so enjoy the journey your career takes, rather than the destination! Your career goes from fun to boring before you know it!

Re: JAL A350 collision & fire

Well...I don't know how I feel about that, other than "I trained to my best abilities" and hopefully it results in a favourable outcome! As "rusty"as I may be, it's still not as frustratingly slow as some recently well documented fire/rescue responses on field!

Re: JAL A350 collision & fire

Why is it that several.. (not all), well documented crashes, that happen on the airport grounds result in frustratingly slow, and confused rescue/fire response? Like half the time, the fire fighters can't seem to get there hoses charged, for an exceedingly long time!

Re: Landing legally off-airport for recreation

I believe most "Privately insured aircraft", unless you add a "rider to your hull insurance", are only covered for fender benders at "registered airports".

Re: That was a close one...

Terminal Control in Canada has always been too "conservative" compared to the U S, (PHX, SFO, LAX..etc) And now, with the inexperienced in the cockpit, it's getting worse! It's bullshit to be "slowing down" below 200kts until 10 final! #KeepTheSpeed-Up!

Re: I give up on Canadian airlines

If it works for Nurses (Hospitals/Provinces are desperate for Nurses), and many quit there full time, burn-out job, only to sign-on with an Agency, that pays them twice as much, and they (the Nurse).. can pretty much dictate where and when they wish to work! Are we headed that way? (over worked and ...

Re: Transition from the bush to an airline - I could really use some advice

In Europe they fly Airbuses with 250 hours. I bet that you could recover from a stall or land within the confines of a runway better than a lot of those pilots. There’s no reason you need to do an intermediate step other than Canadian convention and the establishment that says “I paid my dues so yo...

Re: ATC encounters

It was good to hear "Grumpy" back on the job after blowing his 5 weeks vacation..lol
I was beginning to think he retired from YWG Centre (119.9, 126.4, 133.9)
I know we piss you off on occasion :lol: , but don't retire...we need your "experience" to keep things moving! :goodman:
