Haha, ya I have wondered that as well many times. Honestly, I have no idea how he does it. I have watched the hook float by the pad and I can’t see 5ft up the longline in the fog. He has a sixth sense.

There is another doctor in Calgary that does both medicals. I can’t remember his name but he was downtown a few years ago.

Do Many Canadian Pilots work in the US
HillerWhat replied to Rekyeah's topic in General Helicopter Operations
Yup, work visa and FAA license. Or under NAFTA you can fly for a Canadian company with a Canadian License. The pilot shortage situation is more evident down here and in turn the rates are higher. If you can get on USFS, it’s pretty much a year round gig fighting fires nowadays. -
ROHO cushions - where's the best prices? (Canada)
HillerWhat replied to pistonhigh's topic in General Helicopter Operations
There is usually tons of them on ebay. Its pretty gross buying a used one, but I did it. They seem to run about 100$ used. That one didn't last long so i bought another one used from a guy in Alberta that gave up flying and it's in mint shape. H.W. -
As far as the commercial exam, it was easy. Just remember the answers to all the questions in your prep. The questions and answers are the exact same in the exam.

Check out EBay. There is some cheap units on there.

Vertical Forums Maintenance Update
HillerWhat replied to VerticalA's topic in General Helicopter Operations
Hey Guys. I use an app to look at this forum on my IPhone and it has always worked, never a problem. It's called Ipb Buddy. Try it out... -
Thanks Winnie. I have one of those. I am just trying to relearn enough to pass the Inrat a second time. The aero course manual isn't quite cutting it for me. I did the ATPL with only the Culhane course and it worked out. I just pretty much need any help I can..... I thought it was worth a try.

I am looking for a used Culhane Instrument Rating Ground school course. Does anyone have one kicking around that is not needed anymore? Thanks

Fast Tracking Skilled Labour Foreign Hires.
HillerWhat replied to shakey's topic in General Helicopter Operations
Tell me this- why would I go work for a company with the small possibility of gaining year round employment when I can go work somewhere else and collect a paycheck 12 months of the year? If you want a pilot just for the summer- you are going to need to compensate. How is this pilot going to feed his family for the remainder of the year? -

Drunk ramblings but a few good points... -
And when does it end? When will I cease to have to pay for my grandfathers wrong doings? I understand their plight, I just don't see how the continuous handouts are fixing the problems. Perhaps I am just bitter as the band where I live are some of the wealthiest folks in town and continue to be presented with more land and resources.

"They are private and government operators and TC/CCG require an IFR. Not exactly viable options for the average pilot." Why not? It doesn't take much to get the Group 4 stamp in your license. They have hired pilots with 3500-4000 hours. I would call that average.
