Sup Tin

Workin for the man, what's new with you?

Any word on ATC?

not yet Tin, applied friday and it's labour day weekend..... probably won't get word til the weekday.......... i heard the response is slow though

How many total controllers does NavCanada employ? ToGo is looking at ATC too.

Not a whole lot. Did more research into that thing we talked about but ultimately decided to stay in NY and fly for the PD *fingers crossed*


Oh, nogood, while it's no surprise, I still haven't gotten a PM back from 360... fucking figures...

You should do whatever makes you happy, sounds like a kick azz job to me. :tup:

i dunno exact numbers but they control all airports and airspace in Canada....
i hope i get it, the training center is a 45 min drive from my house.... not bad
next province....lol

ma back that thing up girl time is money

I've been so torn because I know i'd enjoy the ATC, i'd enjoy anything in aviation but i tallied up a lot of life factors and decided that ultimately NY is a better option at the moment and that offers a cockpit seat. Actually it could offer 2, I intend to join the ANG our here after the academy and hopefully a C-130 driver seat opens up and I could slide into that as well. I wouldn't mind flying a Bell 412, an Agusta A119, and a C-130. :D

Yeah that would be a nice setup for sure. What kind of ATC do you think you'd like better?

Damned roof is leaking in my bathroom. I cut out the drywall and found an old vent line, where the vent was removed and then covered over with plywood when a new roof was laid. Now its dripping ever so slightly, but just enough for it to pool and begin dripping through the ceiling.

FML.

No doubt, the A119 is nice, they come in here a few times a week.

That sucks..:icon14:

Yeah it looks pretty sick and it does a lot of Counter Terrorist/Patrol work which would be pretty damn cool.

banning, have any idea why i keep getting icicles every damn winter.
my sofits.... however it's spelled are all open and the roof is vented......

i had ice in my attic...lol... it was drippin and freezing in my bro's room...
i dont think there's a leak but it's condensation

You are probably right. Its just built up condensation most likely. Unfortunately if its building up into ice, and you don't have a quick enough thaw to allow it to evaporate, its gotta go somewhere...and that place would be on your bro's head.

That sucks, did you guys get a lot of rain?

IFR most likely, but in the interview.... they decide whether i'll be an IFR or VFR

< finally just finished banning's effen game

bored...

Heya Angie

me and my bro went up and removed all the ice and insulation
we replaced it with new insulation, a lot of it... we also install baffles so the insulation doesnt touch the roof itself.

it's temp job.... maybe later on in the fall or next spring when the attic isnt boiling hot... i need to remove all existing insulation and put in modern stuff....

when i opened the insulation bag in the attic... i was expecting it to triple in size b/c it's compressed right??
instead.... it became so huge i stepped back and you know what happens when you step back in an attic.............. FML

What sounds better to you? Working in a large center never seeing the airplanes, or in the tower looking outside all day?

hello "P

same thing ive been trying to figure out.

yeah that just isn't making sense to me...:confused::confused:

Tower FTMFW!

Not a horrible amount, but just enough of a dry summer to make last years tiny leak, into a larger leak once the new rains came back. Oh well, tomorrow is another day. :D

i see ur point.... VFR would probably be cool b/c you get to see the planes... that would probably distract me at 1st b/c planes are just as cool as cars to me.

IFR pays more :ugh2:

Exactly, I am lucky enough to be a radar and tower controller. :tup:

yeah the rest of the week should be nice, maybe a few stray shower tomorrow and then back into the 80s.

I have a friend that works tower and every so often she sends me videos of cool airplanes taking off. The last one was a 747 taking off at night.. it was cool :D

lucky guy....lol :tup:

i found a forum where a bunch of trainees are talking.. time to drop in and say hi

okay back to "work" see ya!

< wouldnt have gotten into the tower at his own airport if it wasnt for tin

good learn as much as you can, let me know if you have any ?s

Glad it worked out! :tiphat:

747's are nice, i traveled on one going to England to see family...
such a nice plane, very comfortable and everyone has their own screens..

it was with BA

thanks Tin :hello:
