How many hours were flown after the damage? If it had flown for many years without major issues after a prop strike or other serious damage, I think you should be good.

Hi Dan. I'm in Montréal. Currently getting my Private License.

Yup. Definitely something you don't see every day

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/alaska-airlines-flight-delayed-after-2-pilots-fight_n_62d85417e4b06e213fba4578 Due to a "professional disagreement". A big one, I guess..

You won't be over reacting if something goes wrong... But you should fly the route yourself, try to mimic the turns at an altitude that makes you feel safe. If it feels wrong, well maybe you can think about it. But as you are aware, the definition of "safe" changes among pilots. Also, does your...

I just found out that one of those devices actually helped Air Transat's Flight 236 to safely land after a fuel leak. An A-330!

I'm learning a lot from this thread, thank you all

Just for you to consider, it just showed up: https://www.trade-a-plane.com/search?category_level1=Single+Engine+Piston&make=CESSNA&model=180J&listing_id=2405503&s-type=aircraft

Don't have the numbers to support it, but here's an idea: You can get a time builder plane for a fraction of that budget (won't be that comfy, nor fast, and you'll probably be the only one flying it for some time). Say a Globeswift: Is both tailwheel and retractable. That will build you...

I'm wondering how much lobby the processing plant did to raise that stack there

The sky is the limit, literally. Just make sure to include your A&P in the process. You don't want to install something that may be a PITA to inspect/repair in the future. Also, if you intend to fly mostly VFR you don't need that much glass :p Go to hangarflying.com You can look for a blank...

Some folks got lots of money for their 50 year old houses. So they're thinking they can do the same with their 50 year old plane.

Not sure what's happening now. Folks are chopping their tails off.

And in addition to that, they're showing interest on making their way up here to Québec (Where Airbus manufactures the A220 and several of Boeing's suppliers are also located)

It's all about lobbying

Was crunching the numbers too. Deeply surprised by that.

If that 2% is out of those who only hold a PPL, then I'll say that the % is accurate.

That too. I've noticed an increase on WIP kits for sale too. Seems like some underestimate both time and $ needed to complete them.

Half of those is us Canadians flying south during winter months

Well. The RV/kit build market is also suffering. A new listing appeared today on TAP here in Canada with the following text from the seller: "Tail Kit - Ready for pre-cover inspection Wing Kit - 75% ready for pre-cover inspection Fuselage Kit - Paid for and shipped, not started. Finish Kit -...
