"Push the head, pull the tail" or "the head falls, the tail raises" that’s how I remember it and taught it. All that mental math is nice to know for written exams, but has little use in the real world. If you have an RMI - Push the head/pull tail is all you really need. A fixed card requires more pa...

Northern flyer - yup, first thing I do is turn away from sun. Also if your overflying any water the sun can reflect off it into engine cowling tripping sensor. Heavy mositure/rain can also trip sensors if the the wire's are frayed. and finally vibration over time will fray harnesses to sensors and t...

Cheifpilot...what part are you thinking. I was thinking hidden valley area which is closer to the deerfoot then crowchild. I'd like to get into a place here in the bridgeland/cresent heights area but the prices start at $250,000 (for a small house) and go way up from there. This won't be a party sha...

ATTN all YYC based pilots and students......
I am (still) thinking of starting a pilot house here in YYC. I can't decide on the location - do I keep it central or closer to the airport. My thought's are leading to central - good compromise between distance to airport , nightlife, and to all amminities. Although, houseing prices are much more r...

:D more of the same...we lost 6 or 7 guys in the last few months to WJ and (LMAO) Canada $30,000 (love that). Lots of new faces - and yes some low timers. Things look like there going to keep moving for the unforseen future. Things at AC and JAZZ are moving along. Overall, a nice start to a recovery.

yup the 500 multi PIC is not easy to get, if your not willing to move to get it. As an instructor, if your school is slow - move to one that is IE Perimeter or Pro IFR. Or give Hicks and lawerence a call. Give some of the servey company's a call - there are a few with HO's and lower time requirments...
