There may be a local phenomenon of non-use, however, with aircraft preferring to monitor the closest airport frequency, or use an ADS-B aircraft radar system via an app instead (some are b...

Just had a request for an interview, on site, from out of province. I suggested we interview via computer first. It wasn't indicated SIM was involved in a few back and forth emails. They cancelled. And before it's suggested I don't know how Canadian aviation works, that's exactly why I wanted to con...

Note, flying MIFR was not under the hood, if ...
