Thanks for the heads up, I didn't get registered in time to bid on the shotguns I wanted but I did manage to pick up a few pellet rifles for the kids.

Trudeau will just appoint another fall guy to serve up the same report. His worshipers will take it and rearrange the paragraphs and say it's a new report. There is no chance Trudeau will accept any heat for this.

I would imagine the 415's require much less lake to scoop from also. Interesting note The mars uses the same engines as the CP-107 Argus

Tronos Aviation in Summerside P.E.I. was converting BAE-146's to air tankers. I'm not sure how many they completed or if they are still doing it. Their website no longer mentions air tankers. Neptune aviation operates 9 BAE-146's and I know two came from Tronos. I'm not sure of the others. I...

I guess, but If I was spending the money they are to try to land a yet to be announced contract I would want my offering to be at least as capable as the current ships. Unless I had been told by someone at the RCN that the official position is the azipods weren't necessary. Otherwise If another...

The kingstons have azipods but the vard dosent? Did the RCN decide the azipods were unnecessary?

Didn't the liberals scream foul when Harper painted the CC-150 with that scheme. Now they used it on the CC-330? 🤷‍♂️ I like it BTW I just can't figure this government out.

Audiobook if that counts. A man called Intrepid by William Stevenson. The book is about William Stephenson the WW1 fighter pilot turned master spy from Winnipeg who was the inspiration for James bond. P.s. the narrator is not helping the book any. I believe it would be much better with someone...

I'm pretty sure they since sold their remaining stake in the c-series.

He is doing his part to usher in the "Great Reset"

Just a thought, has anyone experimented with small emp's for drone defense?

That was likely windows spell check having a coniption fit when you try to use canadian/british spelling. https://www.scribbr.com/us-vs-uk/defence-vs-defense/#:~:text=The%20spelling%20tends%20to%20vary,s%E2%80%9D)%20is%20more%20common.

Exactly

If the RCN gets the 60B for the subs I doubt we will see an MCDV replacement. I am guessing but I see the argument as "the AOPS can do the MCDV job while we study (I.e. put off indefinetly) what the best MCDV replacement should be.

How do you get there from my response. I didn't say anything about my opinion of the way the government handled the situation. I only commented that this time it worked out in our favor.

Had we bought the F-35s years ago we would have had buggy planes. Stalling has actually helped us tremendously in this one example. They are also a whole lot cheaper now than years ago.

It is said that there is an exception to every rule, I have not been exposed to high level CAF persons so I cannot comment.

I think there are tons of union people who are excellent. I know some are awful. The highly entitled attitude is not an absolute if you work in a union but I have not seen it outside a union at all. Suffolkowners original question about the sabotage Sometimes I think its to prolong the job but...

In my experience that would not matter. The attitudes I have witnessed at some places are more like what Photopilot mentioned. No thought what so ever for the long term. They seem to think their acts of sabotage or insubordination and justified because the company did or didn't do something or...
