I was going to mention that one. I am a little slow these days

I was in YVR the day they went into effect there. it was $10 and you paid before security.

Literally about a mile from the museum just off the old runway at 13th street

Diesel and jet fuel are essentially the same thing. Jet fuel does not have the additives for lubrication. I know plenty of guys that run their Jettas on JetA. Fill it with Jet A and a few ounces of Stanodyne and you are good to go.

I followed on in New Brunswick. It is not a fast mover by any means. It was entertaining.

Its a shame. That is a spectacular museum. I have been many times. I love the Valkyrie so much I ride one.

There is a reason that Air Transat is about the longest running Charter / Budget carrier in Canada. The provide good service and keep their nose clean. Rarely a complaint from family and friends that fly with them. I personally never have

Perhaps this is more to your liking. a little pricier. Pure Gold Coin – 100ᵗʰ Anniversary of the Royal Canadian Air Force | The Royal Canadian Mint

Aviation in Canada. Those who can do it better....Can't

I was an employee...

The Twin Otter -400 Is in production now. Not everything was destroyed. Boeing raped DH of some gtreat intellectual property that they then incorporated on some new designs. Boeing was not good for DH

I was told a story some years ago about UFOs near Sault Ste Marie discussed but not reported by pilot in fear of being laughed at. Several people reported being shadowed by small UFOs triangular in shape. Apparently it came to light that some "testing" was being carried out on the F-117 or its predecessor / Prototype. They would shadow commercial aircraft and see if anyone noticed. I do not know if this is true or it it is whether it was sanctioned "testing" or just good ole boys playing games on the government dime.

When you board the plane, Are there FA's there? yes. Not being paid. When you get off the plane and here "buh bye" from an FA....Not getting paid. When you are sitting in the lounge and waiting. When do the FA's walk down the bridge onto the Aircraft? 30 min, 40 min?, and hour? of course this depends on the flight and aircraft size but lets just say an hour for arguments sake. They are not being paid. Not until the door is closed. Is this right? Would you work for free? I didn't think so. How about after the flight when the cattle have left the plane and left their refuse behind all over the place? They still have duties and are not being paid for it. They Should be.

maybe if they get their Quality issues in Check and start turning out a safe product they would have a fighting chance. the way things are going they may have to work for Airbus.

Components of the 737 are made all over the globe. gone are the days of a single manufacturer. It is not cost effective. nothing is made in Renton. The components are all ASSEMBLED in Renton

From a Mechanic perspective they were both pigs.

I was wondering exactly that. Her first communication is "we are going down" No mayday no pan and significant exchange to determine if they were an emergency. She was audibly rattled which is understandable.

say it...It was a pig...Great plane but a pig.

Jazz is training pilots at breakneck speeds. In unprecedented numbers. Problem is they all go to AC once trained due to the flow through agreement. Jazz OTP is directly controlled by AC.

the dash 8 is either beacon or strobes. Beacon when taxiing and switch to strobes on the runway. One 3 position switch

The flight that went into the everglades (104?) was the only accident attributed to mechanical failure of the aircraft. A faulty indicator light on the nose gear. The remaining issues on that flight were pilot induced.

besides Vegans are annoying. Why do we want to be part of that.

really? Who knew? Infrastructure? Nah we don't need that. everyone has electricity. An all electric future will never happen no matter what the tallking heads say. We do not have the power grid to support it. We can barley support a 30 degree day in YYZ now.

Boeing has certainly lost its shine. Once a Model of engineering excellence now not so much.
