Twinnie:

 

You Sir are absolutely correct!!

 

Excuse me while I pull my foot out of my mouth!!!

 

Apologies to all the Alpine and Tasman people.!!

AARGH Pheeew what a comment ! Don't confuse me with those Tasman basteges...

 

Let it be known that I have publically offered those swine unlimited FREE BEER and they have not yet partaken.

Probably sitting up in the Heli Shack drinking wine coolers (with little umbrella's in the glass) !

[Guest jesse]

Just got my calendar today thanks Heli ops

Whatsamatta 407, cabin fever?

[407 Driver]

Nope, just poking fun at the neighbors. Good bunch of guys !

I charged (hosed royally actually ) a small CYXC company a case of beer a day to use the hangar over the last week+ (@-30c), so have a huge glut of free beer to give away...and I can't even make a dent in the pile

[GoldMember]

I'll be right there! :up:

[407 Driver]

Better be quick, we're down to 8 cases. There's a Great Slave crew weathered in here, they killed a lot the other night. A few more days with this road closure, we;ll be getting low again.

The invite is even open to "Sofa King" if he can get his maintenance done on old Ice encrusted Astars !

Not sure if either company was insulted. Again the statement was made "tongue-in-cheek".

 

However, I have learned that tonal inflection cannot be recognized by some on this form (no personal slight intended) so, I felt that I'd cover both companies at the same time. :up:

 

Don't believe I've ever met nor worked with anybody from either company, therefore I can't honestly make a negative nor positive statement about either company.

 

I did however, try to get into and apply at the Alpine Hanger in YYC several eons ago, before I went into banging rivets at a rebuild company. I couldn't get pass the receptionist, She told me that Alpine was not interested in hiring me, because I was licensed. They were only interested in apprentices in YYC.

 

I don't know if that was/is true or not. I went else where and was working 2 hours later.

 

Don't get me wrong, I ain't slaggin the company. In all honesty, I haven't heard a negative word about Alpine nor Tasman. And as that Jailbird would say.. That's a good thing!! :up: :up:

Now BR, It was not the captain I was referring to! It was the seat in the machine, and the view!

 

I would not mind the view... :shock:

 

(Actually the Calendar is showing a beautiful snowcovered 407, but I'd prefer the ocean.) :up:

Well Winnie, I'll bet you can't wait until FEB....as RH says..." If I turn R to 090 and open my eyes, there should be a RIG !

 

You won't see an Alpine 407 until June (inset)
