I take it you mean the Queen's English? "Queens" is a neighbourhood in New York and speak something that only barely sounds like English

 

I hate improper punctuation lol.

Anybody know who the crew was on the 76 ?

Pilot5,

 

NEVER GO FULL RETARD!!!! TOO LATE!!!! The gear on a 76 is bullit proof unless you are moving sideways when you touch down. As for electrical problems, I am currently flying the A++,C+ and C++, and all of them have electrical issues. Find an IFR aircraft that doesn't. As for age, take a good look at all of the types still flying from the 60's and 70's. Are you really that challenged?

 

As for the health of Helijet, you have to be kidding. Last I remember, they did about 21 million in revenue per year, where the ambulance contract brings in 5 million a year. All rough numbers of course. They have the scheduled airline, contracts in the Charlottes as well as a jet ambulance contract. If they did not get the ambulance contract, there would be about 20 pilots moving with the contract I would guess. HJ will still be fine, been going for 22 years now, many without the ambulance.

 

The A models are perfect for flying between Vancouver and Victoria. Working at Sea Level in mostly cool temps, why would you even consider a newer model. The new Ambulance contract is a 10 year contract I believe, giving the operators reason to get newer aircraft. Not to mention it is a requirement, as they are starting to close pads down for lack of performance.

 

As for the other clown asking the name of the crew. Let me ask you, would you like your name placed in a public forum like this for all to see? Give your head a shake!!! Both of you guys should be ashamed of yourselves!!!!

 

Regards,

Thanks Curtis. You have to remember there are folks on this forum with the only reason for being here is so they can spread false rumors and innuendo. Lots of great folks, drivers and wrenches have left this site because of the fertilizer that is spread daily. I was going to point out the reason why I come here but I don't really know why. Maybe I just want to try and catch up with Elvis.

And.......It goes without saying...one "attaboy" for 212wrench as well. True words from a Squire!! :up:
