407 Driver Posted June 25, 2003 Report Share Posted June 25, 2003 ...it's actually "time wasted" but I get your point, I shall not waist any more of your time. PS, I did wish you Luck too!, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cap Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 Collective ------ in case you don''t know him, 407D is a ''pretty good head''. 407D -------since you probably don''t know him either, you should know that Collective is also a ''pretty good head''. How do I know all this.......because I know you both, but I don''t believe you know each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downwash Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 Well, fellas, despite all the ''good heads'' and the described good intentions, does anyone really doubt that this service will take away the evacs handled by locals up ''til now? Or are we to believe that the newbies were absolutely unconscious of that ''possibility.'' Of course they''ll provide a more comprehensive service, and the former providers will almost certainly lose evacs they could capably handle. There''s no reason to be ashamed of business realities, is there, so why call a spade a G.D. shovel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
407 Driver Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 You Sir, always have a way with words. That's putting it out plain and simple. By the way, I just flew your Film crew from last week...they raved about how good "G Mc" was. I agreed! Please pass that along Have you checked out the pic of WXJ in the "Web Funnies" section? You guys have done some good work on the old gal to bring it back to life, it was one Butt-ugly piece of work when I had it in '91...notice that CHC didn't have the time, money, or ambition to even paint the "J" on it.

407 Driver Posted June 27, 2003 Report Share Posted June 27, 2003 Downwash, I just did a search, and it IS the same airplane as I flew in 1991. It''s GWXJ (S/N 1791), and was with CHC then, they turned it over to Sunrise, then you picked it up in ''95. I can imagine that it was a "total write-off" as it was very very close when I last saw it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downwash Posted June 27, 2003 Report Share Posted June 27, 2003 Oh, and 407, our GWXJ was a total writeoff and, according to the Register, is still registered to us. We certainly haven''t rebuilt it, so I don''t know what''s up with the bird in the pic. Just can''t be ''J'', I guess. I''ll be glad to pass on the plaudits to G.M. Isn''t it nice to know we''ve got quality at both ends of the range? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downwash Posted July 9, 2003 Report Share Posted July 9, 2003 412, that kind of fits with what a ''not so little'' bird told me - that he''d been offered SIX figures to fly left seat VFR! You''d have to get in the line about Nampa if that was for real! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if that were the case, the company would be broke in no time flat. You are right, the line up would be to Nampa. Each Capt and F.O. will get pay as per experience and negotations. Just like any other job in the industry. Have a good day and any questions, I will try to answer. By the way, we have run into a little problem which has caused a delay in the delivery of the ship. But I have it on he highest authority the ship will be flinging this way soon. thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
