  1. A Green Global is worth about $60M. A Completed 737 is about $50. Toss in all the goodies required I am willing to bet the global comes out at a much higher cost. I love the Global but I am not sure its the right platform
  2. Might have started better with a dummy prop on there for some inertia
  3. all we knew is that is cut trees faster than anything else at the tiime
  4. In Plain english.... We do not have enough pilots to support marginal routes and are focusing on the major centres.
  5. its in the ACT. How is the supreme court overturning this law. Privilege for on-board recordings (2) Every on-board recording is privileged and, except as provided by this section, no person, including any person to whom access is provided under this section, shall (a) knowingly communicate an on-board recording or permit it to be communicated to any person; or (b) be required to produce an on-board recording or give evidence relating to it in any legal, disciplinary or other proceedings.
  6. It is actually in the TSB Mandate that the CVR FDR NOT be used in this fashion or for this purpose. This is a bad decision that I hope gets appealed
  7. There was a push to complete the second one about 15 years ago or so. It never went anywhere
  8. the battery pack on a tesla is a sealed unit which has a coolant running through it. Water penetration due to submersion is not possible
  9. Could you imagine a DC-10 -Twin? I wouldnt grant ETOPS either with the triples track record
  10. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2022-10-11 22-55-13.mp4 This is a Quick and dirty takeoff and return to land at Lukla. Really a small place
  11. Courchevel is another one that has little space and a fun up hill landing and downhill takeoff
  12. Yeah... Last year when I was picking my daughter up from Ottawa to come home for the summer, the car got a little full so my wife flew back. My other daughter (who lives in Ottawa). drove her to the airport and myself and my other daughter headed home. We arrived home (Toronto) 5 minutes after my wife. Is it really worth flying short routes?
  13. Quite normal. I have seen winglets blown to bits and static wicks blown off. That is not the strike area. that is the EXIT wound
  14. I am not sure why the guy in the photo is looking in the wheel well??????
  15. If there is no crew, there is no safety issue. Kind of like "nobody works, nobody gets hurt"
  16. yup good old stunned mentality. Stop them from hiring foreign pilots so you can accelerate your path to bankruptcy.
  17. I find that I do not frequent the forums as much as I used to because of the divisive nature of the "NON AVIATION" posts. I do ignore them now when I come to the forum but IMHO those discussions are better left in the political forums.
  18. if I had a dollar for all of the "Brand new canadian airlines" that no longer exist I could buy a meal at Mcdonalds
  19. after examining the data I am not so worried. The data is all stored on the device until you submit it to the CBSA. No background operation.
  20. if you are trying to get home from LHR,LGW MUC,FRA FORGET ABOUT IT. The airports have placed restrictions on the capacity of aircraft at 90%. That means planes are leaving without cons. For a while there was a ban on all NON-Rev passengers DEPARTING LHR and LGW. It is a Poopshow for cons in Europe right now. I am going to LHR in a couple of weeks and I am returning from another airport due to the restrictions unless they are no extended past the Sep 11 date at which time I will alter my bookings.
  21. ok what is everyones issue with ArriveCan other than the obvious Vaccination stuff. It electronically does everything I need to do with pen and paper now. It does make life easier aside from the nefarious bits.
