While you're in the 'buy it now' mode, you should perhaps consider these:

Seems like you're going to be drinking so much coffee you'll need them!

I'll second the Thermos brand. I use one of the tumblers instead: https://thermos.com/collections/beverage-bottles/products/stainless-steel-direct-drink-bottle-16oz Stainless steel, with a plastic lid. Slim enough that it fits in most cupholders I've seen. I can fill it with boiling hot beverage at ...

Where, when flying what, etc...

I got into flying in my 20s for the love of the craft. Now I am in my 30s with a family, mortgage, cars and need more money to support all of that. I still love the flying just not the industry. It is recovering but wages are stagnant while cost of living is out of control. I'd suggest that your co...

Moved to the COVID forum..it's veering that way...

Hey there. I’m not sure of this chat site. But I can confirm it was my father Thomas brotherston or as I see some of you called him big T. Please guys I hope you refrain from sharing pictures in here at all. I can confirm it was quick and painless. He hit an antenna with his wing coming in from cam...

Uh oh, somebody got their hand slapped!

+1 to OP. It’s not a dearth of jobs. It is a dearth of jobs that pay a liveable wage.

But, but, but,....."Nobody wants to work anymore!"

I fly for free. I get paid to spend X days a year in a crew room, and Y days a year away from doing things that I like with my family and friends. (Gotta admit though, some days away from the chaos of home is good!) To the topic: YES! Post pay. None of this 'Salary according to company pay scale' st...

When I first got my Cat 1, I was outside the vision limits, and I had a clause on my medical - something along the lines of: "flexibility applied for vision requirements." I think that you could apply for that, perhaps? The other route might be a 2 crew endorsement - that is, you can only exercise t...

Sorry, boys...this is going nowhere good in a hurry.

The ones who've left and now work in the USA?

Contrail - to the best of my knowledge - is a consultant hired by oil patch companies to safeguard their crews' safety during flight ops in Alberta. Essentially, it stipulates hour/experience requirements for various commonly used aircraft types for oilpatch charters from CYYC and CYEG.. more info o...

Could I just buy an unairworthy collection of parts (assembled in the form of an aeroplane, of course - but minus the propellor). And then buy the prop separately?

The Ukrainians are already saying that it will be rebuilt, with a timeline of 5+ years and at a cost of roughly $3+ Billion US - which they say the Russians will pay for destroying it. I say good for the Ukrainians for already saying it will be rebuilt as part of a war settlement. No one can ever d...

*THREAD DRIFT*

What the EFF is the justification for the 4 years of flat pay? I made more than year 3 flying a !Navajo! in 2002!

Holy spamming the board, Droneman..

ETA: Yes, that's pretty spectacular!

Big Bird. Wind it down a little, would you? Several posts - all saying the same thing - do little to bolster your message. Also, Doxxing people is not allowed on here. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you didn't know that - but now you do. Dox someone, and it'll be an immediate (and perma...

Neither Covid, nor aviation.

More related to Covid than aviation, so moved to the C forum.

Two posters given a 1 week holiday.
