Re: Baker Lake

Airport can get busy at certain times of the day - making for a bit of a wait to get gas, as mentioned... fuel is steep - I think I was told it was $2.60/L, that was on Wednesday. Baker got shorted 200,000L by the barge last fall, their fuel is sitting in YRT. They've been having to fly fuel in. Wea...

Re: Engine Tents/Heaters

we've had some of our wing covers and engine tents made by a local upholsterer (sp?)... anyone that has a heavy duty sewing machine and knows their way around it can whip up some pretty decent stuff, provided they have the patterns.

Re: YQR King Air 100 Accident

I’m not suggesting this operator was not vigilant or that the system is electric-mechanical I can garuntee you that particular 100 has the electric-mechanical landing gear. It also has an STC for ridiculously good looking pilots... but, I don't know if the company still holds the Ops Spec to use it...

Sorry to see her on her nose like that... poor little thing. Looks like the crew did a pretty good job of putting it down, glad it all worked out safely.

Re: Scary Runway Incursion

good example of why you should have a look at the airport diagram on your approach plate when you fly into somwhere unfamiliar, you'd think they'd have that one figured out by the time they were flying big jets around.

Air Tractors?

So, looking at that Wilderness Air ad - it says they have some Air Tractors. I've been hearing them every once in awhile if I'm within radio range of NWO.

My question is, what can you use an Air Tractor for around there, aside from crop dusting and water bombing?

Just out of curiosity.

Riders all the way, I don't care what you say - the people of Saskatchewan deserve it for the amount of support the Roughriders get from their fans.

Also, the Blue Bombers are lame... and Troy Westwood is even lamer, cut your hair... you look like an idiot.
