The Yellow Hydraulics refers to 1 of the 3...
My Mom never told me about my real dad until I was 13. I was a liitle pissed at first but when I realized that all my Uncles, Aunts and Grandparents on both my Mom's side and my Pa's side knew and...
Kitchener, Ontario:canada: My Mom was a single parent back in the day when it was still very much frowned upon. My Grandparents had 10 kids so 1 more mouth to feed wasn't much. My 'Pa' married Mom 7...
I have been off on disability for a while, but when I did drive to work it was 50 miles(80Km) each way from my farmhouse to CYWG. I worked mostly 4-4 shifts which made for long days but the 4 days...
I don't know about that Ken. If you look close at it, it seems to be fixed to the cowl and not removable and normally run-up screens have a smaller mesh. It is perplexing to say the least.

I'm pretty sure you guys are right about not being able to set it that low. Even 50 feet at 500+ knots would be one heck of a ride. A good pal of mine spent many years in Cold Lake where he said it...
There's probably a good chance the pilot didn't have his hands on the controls at all as the F-1 has a Terrain Following Radar system. I have seen footage where the pilot is reading a map with both...
That's what I call IFR..... I Follow Roads:kilroy:

Bad news for sure. Hate to lose those old birds and any aviation death is always abrupt and sad. At least the man died doing something that most of us dream of. As for the airframe it is terrible but...
Back in the pre 9/11 days, one of the benefits of being airline employees was the occasional ride in the cockpit. Well I managed the last seat on a DC-9 from Calgary to Winnipeg one night. The whole...
A lot of airliners will step climb as their fuel burns down and then they can get up to where the winds/weather may be better. Mostly this is an issue with long haul ops because of the large fuel...
Maybe say take the money with the caveat that you can take them out to a nice meal or something similar or give some of the money to a charity in their name if you do not need the cash.

Me too

I don't have any theories about that day, only questions that have not been answered by any of the official reports. My first reaction is like a reporter, to follow the money trail. Who had the most...
When I served in the Canadian Forces, we were in the process of integrating women and francophones so our promotion program was skewed to give them priority over anglophone males. To say this added...
One that I am looking forward to after purchasing the FS9 version is the VRS Superbug. The amount of realism can be demanding at times but the satisfaction comes from mastering it. Like Ken said I...
The Taliban is a little stricter about using drugs.:kilroy: There are bad examples in every army:blind:, but the crux of the "war" is the overall situation. The Afghan people have never put up with...
Don't matter if it's hash or homebrew, navy rum or amphetamines, whatever you need to stand up in battle. There is no doubting the Afghans courage or their tenacity.
...
A couple of points to note. The Taliban are not hiding amongst the population, THEY are the the population. They are defending their land against a FOREIGN aggressor. I would do the same. As for the...
Paging Ken Stallings, paging Ken Stallings, would Ken Stallings please report to the Outhouse.:running:

The only exception should be to hang floats. There was a Volpar conversion hanging around CYWG that I could never take a liking to. It just looked ungainly and not right.

I was yapping to a Buff driver at an airshow one day and he said he had to have 3 fingers surgically added to operate the throttles.:kilroy:
