Wow, I cant believe its finally here! My 500th Post! So many insightful conversations, so much petty bickering! I have so many people to thank that helped me get here:

W2 + Rowdy, our shenanigans on the TPBM thread will never be forgotten.
ISTP, your inspiring stories and winny the poo toaster have sparked many a remark.
Cat, Hedley, any of the other oldtimers I missed Thank you for the sound advice from the people who have been chewed up and shat out by the system.
Haz....Keep living the dream bud keep living the dream....

CID, if you havent been such a huge pain in my I ass and dragged me into those pissing matches I would be at post 247, but you have also posted some worthy material and I thank you for some thought provoking stuff. So in a way you balance yourself out.

I apologise to anyone I missed, in your own little way you all helped me reach this spot. So Thank you all!

Well lets kick off the party and I cant wait to celebrate my 1000th! W2 is bringing the beer and ISTP is bringing the Winny the poo cake!

Peace

Hey is it fraud if I put on my resume that I have 400 posts on avcanada if I only have 367 in reality.

Where do I round.

My would be employers will be impressed because I'll put it above my flight hours.

You can convert Av Canada posts 1 to 1 for PIC multi turbine IFR time right?
Just another few thousand posts to go and I can send my résumé to Cat to ferry one of his fancy planes around!

Or is it 2:1 like FO time… so I can only count 150 of my posts towards my PIC time…
TG guy; what’s the official answer?

Who the fark nominated me to bring the beer? Not only do I have to fly in from cowtown, I gotta smuggle all that Big Bear onto the plane? I'm gonna need a bigger purse for my girlfriend if she's gonna fit the Budweiser Party Ball in there...

I have a better idea. I know this guy that lives between Renfrew and Pembrooke, and he can hook us up with a half-dozen swish barrels.

smuggle all that Big Bear onto the plane

I probably shouldn't tell this story, but .... a friend of mine got hired on by Bradley (first air) many years ago. I won't mention any names, but he's the guy that got into a fist fight with his F/O in a twotter on final ...

Anyways, legend has it that on his first real flight, as an FO on a twotter, the captain meticulously climbed up and levelled off at precisely 10,300 feet. Our FO sat for a while, looked at the altimeter, tried to keep his mouth shut, but eventually his curiousity got the best of him, and he asked the captain why they were flying at precisely 10,300 feet.

The captain replied, "Look at the OAT. The beer in the nose is being cooled to the perfect temperature".

That's a man that has mastered the art of concurrent activity.
