Question for all you edjumacated people out there. I'm looking for a good case study on a collapsing/failed airline to read. Preferably one that goes into the nitty gritty of everything leading up to it's ultimate demise. The longer and more detailed the better. Suggestions? https://simpleflying.co...

The aircraft in question departed from the north west runway at Fort Smith , failed to climb and impacted terrain from DER which resulted in a tragic loss of lives. This is the current established fact, anything outside of that is superfluous/conjecture/speculation. Personally I certainly don’t need...

I personally know the owner having worked with him. This will give you design quality insurance , publication direction and most importantly legal standing.

Sir with respect, I haven’t seen your name annotated as a site moderator which certainly indicates you do not have standing nor authority to place sanctions on any person here. Perhaps the moderator listings per sub forums are not updated or possibly hidden by site owner for whatever reason they em...

You’re not one of us who earned our living( in whatever capacity) flying airplanes, so bugger off. No Problem, Old Fella. Make fun of one more young GA’s pilots death , along with his 5 passengers, on the accident forum as you did, I’ll see you banned from this forum. Clear? Sir with respect, I hav...

Years back when I was a line check/ training captain on an A100, one exercise I did was (at altitude) above 5000ft I would bring one engine back to flight idle and bring that propeller to feather. I would then get the left seat pilot to climb to 1000ft above our altitude insisting on blue line best ...

Just wanted to encourage GA’s voice, its not really represented well….. Honest question. Offer your services as a moderator to this site’s owners, you are obviously quite active on this site and no doubt feel you can contribute to the quality of the GA sub section. Nothing wrong with that and if yo...

Are you primarily a GA pilot? I asked for feedback from that group. Only. Nicely. Ah! I guess I "disqualify" as well as I missed this restriction :mrgreen: Not sure if there is that many General aviation pilots only in this forum though... But why restrict your topic to this particular group? Just ...

This tragic accident continues to give general aviation a very bad name. Ninety nine percent of the Private pilots I know many who have professional designations, some who own their own aircraft are conscientious , safety oriented and would never stray outside their own capabilities and that of thei...

I remember that one. One main thing to learn was to keep one's altitude when in a single and t...

Both are still flying. One at WJ the other at AC. Been a long time since I was in that neck of...

Remembering this one few years back, I knew the pilot personally and I don't believe he ever flew again as was injured badly.

Must be the passengers fault. Just must be. Every delay, weather event, even every accident, is the fault of those cheap stingy passengers. 🤔 The continuing Sunwing fiasco is a good reminder. Myself and wife had an unpleasant experience with them 5 yrs ago, we never used their services again and th...

My prediction is that the CTA will propose remedial action for Flair consistent with current regulations. Among other things - compliance with BOD population/voting rights/etc. The ball will be back in Flair’s court. The CTA has the hammer. Not Flair. And the CTA is a government agency, not some to...

https://www.directapproach.ca/ In my view this is the best External Design Unit company that provides instrument approach procedures to those who are outside of the defined Nav Canada core airports that want published procedures for their site. This company is qualified in all aspects of TP-308 and ...

Climb gradients are for obstacles. Noise Abatement departure procedures are for noise restrictions. Don’t mix the two. TC could have reassessed the local obstacles and adjusted the departure gradients to meet the new obstacle clearance. Gino Under :partyman: Yes, you are correct in that published c...

Instrument Approach Procedures in Canada are designed in accordance with TP-308 Criteria for the Development of Instrument Procedures. The latest revision is change 7.0 incorporated January 2017.

Since they already have the installation - moving the installation can be done at a fraction of the cost of a new ILS system. Perhaps even upgrade it to a Cat II/III installation. Perhaps they can attract more operators with both runways the same length. Perhaps as an airline pilot you are not fami...

Agree with you about Halifax - the ILS should be on 32 imho. Adding a few thousand feet would be a good idea as well imho... Why would they spend all of that money on an ILS on 32, when the RNAV gets you down to 200 AGL? In terms of extending the length, they just spent a bunch increasing the lengt...
