I know all about it. It is a requirement... It is required.... Our FAA primary inspector asked us for a copy of it and as well we needed the bond number to register our APIS account with US custome. We occasionally get asked for it by customs in the US. It is about 900 / year or less if you pay in a...

8 Below..... The Movie
I took my lovely daughter to see the movie 8 Below. Definitely 2 thumbs up for kid and adults and even ok for pilots. I do have to say that there are some inconsistencies for us folk that have been there. First of all it was the only Turbine Otter I have ever seen that sounds exactly like a round po...

Jetport
Apparently it was a Jetport Astra that went off the end of the runway in YHM. Bad luck! Sucks to see things like this and it always happens in the fall.

Little More Info
I was a sim instructor at Bombardier on the CL-65 (RJ). This is slightly dated but in 2000 I converted my Canadian ATP to an FAA ATP by simply writing the FAA ATP exam and then doing an FAA checkride in the Sim while I was doing the required type ride to work at Bombardier. Since then I have done tw...

I know of no details except I saw leading edges $$$$ coming off the ship all day yesterday. I can only imagine what h...

When I was flying for Wasaya I noticed that upper management and Indian Management was beyond pathetic. Some real good people have been and left the company. The top dog is very difficult to deal with and not the smartest fella. It is rumoured when PD was a ramp rat with Air Creebec or Austins the b...

New Wrench
Let me throw a couple of wrenches at this thread. Upon consultation with an opthamologist he gave me this advice! Buy quality sunglasses that are 100% UV A and B blockers. He told me that cheap glasses generally claim to block 100% of UV rays. They typically are referring to UVA. So that being said ...

Funny how I have held an FAA ATP for many years without a medical. Did the FAA check ride in an RJ simulator without a medical. TC should follow the FAA model a little more closely. There are so many instances where an FAA reg has been copied somewhat by TC in there copilation and creation of the il...
