Sad day for the Calgary area. Condolences to the families of those involved. RIP.

There has been some nasty weather over Western Canada lately. A) No it hasn't. Not in CYLW lately. B) Theres no wx that would cause you to go -2000fpm on a 500. Even on 1 engine. Was there not a typhoon hitting western BC that day? Looking at the weather didn't seem very nice. Where did you get the...

the website is a little bugged out on my browser.

If anyone has any additional info I would be interested in hearing how this develops. They're a pretty big player out here.

If you're renting out for a profit, then wouldn't you need to have an OC? Just remember, insurers will deny coverage if you are in violation of the CARS.

Involuntary manslaughter? Maybe...
Gross Negligence causing death, most certainly.

Tragic the px had to pay the price.

Did my PPL at OAS a few years back. Great experience and learned a lot - some skills I still use today. The curriculum (while I attended 09) is time consuming and takes a good chunk of flight hours ($$) but you don't forget it. Katanas were a blast to fly, and I always wished to check out on the Gro...

Pitts Special S2-B or C180 on Floats.

Not greedy, i'll need the rest of the lotto money to pay for fuel and burgers
