Glad everyone’s ok

Shamattawa is a shit hole, one of our crews had a log tossed on the runway there. Went over it and landed, kids wanted to see what would happen if the plane landed on it.

Pretty sure skyward was shot at several times there. Missinipi has their plane broken into via the emergency exit and all the meds stolen while the crew helped the medics pick up a patient.

The history goes back a long time, even back in the 70's no one would overnight an aircraft there. I don't think this incident was anything to do with that. Bearskin/Perimeter and some of the people steering those death tubes are all over the runway like a mad woman's shit. The ride in the back is quite violent while some of these guys try and wrestle the metro to a stop, then they pin you against the wall, banging your head on the window or trying to throw you into the isle in the opposite turn. Some of those guys taxi like they are Stirling Moss's brother Pete. Another company falling victim to pilot migration.

Another "learning experience" to talk about at the AC interview!!

Future four bars that will soon tell us that basic aircraft handling skills are unimportant.

That is the beauty of crashes up north though: they hardly ever block the runway. They either over run or go off the side. If you've got to crash, that is a very considerate way of doing it!
