I'm thinking it's Meiya Air out of Sanya in China.

I have a ZULU too, I was in press when I could hear the passengers in the back of the 180 clean as day and very little engine sound on takeoff power. they are ten times better then my old DC.

Off the top of my head:

Kabeelo
Showalter's Fly-In
Excellent Adventures
Woman River Fly-Ins

My father in-law has the same engine in his 172 and been fight around there for years. the big thing is to remember "it's just a 172"

There is a nice holiday inn in Dryden and Days inn in Regina that I always stay at when I drive across Canada.

Yep, the one by the travellodge and it was a long drive to Wawa.

Just don't gas up at the ESSO at Marathon, I just gas up there today and got a half tank of bad fuel.

Normally, When a company buys a company out the employees get laid off and the new owners can choose to re-hire them back or not.

I love my 870 Express tactical with the ghost rings. I plan to take it when I'm over-nighting this summer.

I am almost always surprised that low time pilots looking for their first job don't think the road trip is that important. Thoughts. And if you are going to spend the money on a 50 hour floatplane course before this road trip, you should care about the quality of the program and what you are going ...

I agree with Cat Driver, Air Hart has a great training program

I work in the winter driving trucks, excavators and the odd hammer.

Wow, that's nice

I think this year is better then last year and hope next year will be better then 2010. I have been getting a lot of PFO this year, But I have one offer in the works. Is anyone else hearing back from anyplace yet?
