Watching a show on Sable Island and now it's on my bucket list of Canadian locations I would like to fly to.
Has anyone flown private aircraft there and is it allowed? Looks like they land on beaches.

I'm considering buying a small aircraft built before the requirement for shoulder belts. This particular aircraft has a single seatbelt for the rear passengers. In the USA in this particular aircraft (Maule M5) people are installing Hooker 4 point inertia belts on the front seats, and 2 fixed(non in...

I was watching a documentary about young British pilots flying Porters in Indonesia. It was last winter when I seen the show. If anyone has any information on the company could you PM me. Thanks.

Say good-bye to Viking manufacturing in Canada.. Please tell me why this is good news?

Its been a few years now but I have worked for a really good company that had hardwired Irridium systems. I have also worked for company in Yellowknife that gave us portable Globalstars.. We were informed by our all-knowing CP that they worked great and we should not complain. Unfortunately they wer...

I remember a report a few days ago that the plane left with 8 hours of fuel. Do a scan on Google Earth, and come up with Iran.

A possible theory is the plane is parked in a military hanger in Iran.

I hope someone here has a good serviceable older Narco com radio, I'm needing one asap.
thanks

I'm wondering if anyone knows of the activity at the Starfield Resources/Ferguson Lake property that is planned for this summer. I'm hoping the financial troubles wont hurt the flying up there.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is a FSDO? I've never flown in the States.

I want to ferrry an aircraft that is registered American into Canada. Do I need to get an US licence, and if I do, how do I get one? Any help would be great! I've been told that to import a US registered machine into Canada it has to be flown by a US pilot, and once in Canada, it has to be flown by ...

Looking for Otter propeller, preferably with Albratrous blades..PM if you have any information. Thanks

It appears to me that all the young little pilots must have heard that a pilot in Manitoba got fired last week for returning due to icing and U/S prop deice in a Cessna Caravan. Is this a proper time to slag criminal operators? YESSS!!! I would also like to slag gutless pilots that would go out with...

This topic has probably been hashed over lots, but I haven't seen anything.. Is it possible to fly to Russia via Alaska by small private aircraft? I know they have lots of piston aircraft (AN-2 and such). If anyone has done this it would really really good to hear about the journey.. How about heari...

There is a good reason reality shows focus on individuals with Borderline Personality Disorders. If they made a show about safe,sane,efficient aviation companies, all the viewers would be asleep by the first commercial break. Ag-flying included!!

This wouldn't happen to be the same folks that were trying to start an Amphib. operation in Panama, using Turbo Beavers?

I was hoping any folks out there that have bought this unit could give an opinion on how they like it. A few questions I have...1) does it have an external antenna? 2) How is the internal battery length of use, before recharging. 3)How easy is it to use? 4) Is the map as good as the Garmin 396, in r...

Ignorance CAN be fixed.....Stupid is forever.

With the consultation and blessing of Canadian Forces, the Buffallo for SAR. Politically, it makes great sense. Brian Mullroney, and his mob of whack-jobs screwed Western Canada out of the F-18 maintaince contract.Reasons...1/ We have LOTS of empty hanger-space in Western Canada. 2/ This project cou...

No, Ive seen that AWT wing, and it looks kind of scarey to me. I've also seen one of the original Baron winged Beaver's do a "Demo Take-off" at Watson Lake. It scared the crap out of all of us who were watching. That could have very well been caused by Bigshotism and Incompitence, which was inherint...

I'm hoping someone here could share any information on the Wipline wing modifications on the Beaver. It looks like it might be the same concept as the Otter/Turbo Beaver wing, with fences. Does anyone in Canada have this mod?

I'm hoping someone here knows lots about the "New" Yahoo home-page. I'm having trouble with the "My Favorites". When I try to enter Yahoo Finance Canada, its stays on for a day or so, then reverts back to Yahoo (USA). I know its probably my "finger trouble", but any help would sure be appreciated. T...

Flying for Jimmy Close and Stanley Bridcutt at Watson Lake Flying Services in the early 90's. Two of the finest gentlemen that I will ever have the pleasure of being around. Flying IBP(The Red Beaver) was an honour, and the barbeques at Jim and Louises will never be forgotten. When they had their re...

Thanks Sstocker31. Have you every flown beside a Stinson, and if you have, how do they compare to your machine?

This is one for the oldtimers... Ive been reading up on the Pa-20, and considering the cost in relation to the Pa-18, it looks like a better alternative. I have time only on the Pa-18, so I would appreciate opinions on the comparisons of the two machines. I would be using it for some cross-country, ...
