Pretty Ironic. “Then why even speak on the matter…” 6 pages ago… OP: “anyone know of companies doing equal time schedules?” This Ray of Sunshine: “I’ve never seen any set schedule at any operator in Canada.” Cue list of 16 companies immediately listed. 🙄

What do you think you’re worth?

1. Boomtown, why be a dickwad? The question wasn’t “Am I a hydro approved pilot?” This is the shame about these forums, in theory it seems so neat and tidy to have a place a person could come and ask questions of their peers and just get straight answers... if YOU happen to know what the criteria are would it not be just as easy to answer this persons question as give some passive aggressive remark? 2. Having previously worked at Blackcomb for Roo for 5 years I can tell you that if you ARE hydro approved and are someone looking for a new home, you’d not be likely to regret going there. They are a class act, easily the industries gold standard in terms of employers, in my opinion. *** LL, having not been a part of the hydro program while there, I cannot help to articulate exactly what gets you approved, though I don’t believe that simply having the wire course (which is one of the better courses I’ve personally had) is the totality. Hopefully someone with some class and knowledge can give you a straight answer to what seemed to me to be a straight question

Based on? Have you done it?

For comparisons sakes... Sent the northwall back and ended up with Gallet 050 single. All up, 1245 grams with the soother liner

1509 grams out of the box for the Northwall. Probably won’t have much trouble finding a 250 that someone can throw on a scale for you and confirm but I believe it’s very, very similar PH

FWIW... the available info out there misrepresents actual delivered weight. I bought one because of it’s supposed super light weight. When it arrived, was very disappointed to find it actually weighed MORE than my single visor alpha That being said...Very nice nice fit and finish, and very low profile.

Just wanted to say Thanks for the tips Boy and Gals. Particularly those that reeeally had to work to restrain themselves to not turn this into a temporary foreign workers thread (We're the rohos Bro ...And all these owners and kiwis are the "Mans" ***... Man.) Given that all my dollars are like children to me, I love them all equally and want to take care of them...I'm gonna take the advice offered to investigate to see if the wifes extended benefits will buy me the **** thing. Regardless, there will be one coming and I will post where/how much etc in hope it will help the next. Thanks again for all your input and information. PH

Thanks Hiller. As a germaphob... I agree on used status. 👊🏿

Hola Ladies and Gentleman. Any of you able to share some of your research results? It's a little obscure and I have a full week of spearfishing and drinking out of coconuts scheduled. I feel like I'd be letting myself down if I cancelled to take up sitting in front of a computer to shop. I don't want to make myself cross with me. Anywhere especially known for being "the place" to order? And I suppose, any tips on say, sizes for the 212? (Avoid bigger/smaller than XYZ?) Alternatively, if anyone is forecasting their Nan is going to be, ahem...done ...with hers before fire season... Feel free to PM me. Gracias. PH

Did you end up selling this bucket?

Did someone ask how you felt about it?

Not to hijack this but... In a somewhat related vein... Unless you want the summer off (and to get to discover what dealing with the Pacific Med department can be like) DO NOT under any circumstances get your medical done in Vancouver by Dr. Shelley Perlman at Cira Medical Clinic, trust me on this! Happy choppering PH

Be nice if you could put the shhhhh in Shakey

An open apology to all of you... I sincerely apologize for being daft and having a question. I feel so stupid. 'll try to do better next time. I'm sure that my display of ignorance has been seen as a direct assault on everyone's intelligence and I hope I haven't ruined everyone's long weekend. Pilot5, I do really appreciate the fact that you are not being critical. Thank you. (Coastal... Don't you be daft too. Think Man, think!)
