The article says they have a permit for once a week, Friday afternoons.

Agree with all of your comments, and that she has a good case. However, I wonder what her motivation was to write that piece and have it published. From her position as a DG in north tower at pearkes, it seems she had the ‘fearless advice’ part of the equation covered but what about the ‘loyal...

Another reason why DB pensions are so valuable. Odd though that those fortunate enough to have a DB pension also get the additional benefit of preferential tax treatment.

Considering tsx and S&P indexes were up 32% and 18% respectively in 2025, it isn’t that crazy.

Cool project for sure, I’ll be keeping an eye on its progress. Interestingly, at the NATO ACG2 SG2 meeting in Ankara in June 2025 the Turkish hosts brought us to an open air EW range (by transall) and then bussed us to a TAI and Aselsan hangar to present us the ASOJ platform. In front of all of...

No kidding, I tried to find Reddit discussions about the songs but couldn’t find anything so probably investigations and people keeping a low profile. At least the songs are still up on YouTube since they’re….Epic. Air U and alumni can’t be too happy.

Looks like the trail aircraft lost visual with lead under his nose due to being stepped up in altitude. I’ve only experienced it a couple of times in different aircraft (slower fixed and rotary wing) and it made a lasting impression on me, not pleasant. It shouldn’t happen in the first place but...

They all play games, it’s called politics. Some are better than others though.

Do you say that about other provinces too? But I agree that this shouldn’t be the story, I think Blanchet would have said this CEO needs to go before this incident happened.

Not sure I’d go that far but I’d love to know more about this engagement. If he was evading, he rolled in slowly and it still hit him so I say luck played a part. If he was trying to max turn inside the missile’s aero and Pn limits, that would indeed be quite something. Skeptical but over that...

This particular Air Canada CEO has a long history of making this mistake, for those not tracking or living in Quebec. The level of arrogance he has shown over the years has been impressive so there was no way he wasn’t going to get called out for this blunder. I’m from BC so I understand the...
