This month, we pick up where we left off way back in June of 2014 with our Dangerous Airports Challenges. Our next few events will take you on some of the most dangerous approaches and airports in the world. Eventually, these challenges will become part of a Dangerous Airports tour. This month’s challenge take us from Telluride (KTEX) to Aspen (KASE). Pilots must be certified to land in Aspen, because the approach requires a swift descent through the mountains to a high altitude landing, so study your approach charts.

This month, we begin our Dangerous Approaches tour. These next few events will take you on some of the most dangerous approaches and airports in the world. These events will become part of a new tour later on this year. Our first stop will be Toronto’s Billy Bishop City Centre Airport, following a real world flight of Porter Airlines. One may not see Toronto City Centre as a dangerous airport. However, when you realize its approach path takes you into and then below one of the busiest airspaces in Canada. Toronto City Center is located on an island next to the downtown core of Canada’s largest city. Land long on this runway and you’re going to get more than your fe…

It is spring break, time to stand in airport lines for the second busiest flying weekend of the year. Isn’t it grand, lines of hyper kids and already stressed out parents, who can’t wait to head to places like Disneyland and the other theme parks in the warm sunny south. For this month’s fly-in, there are no hyper kids or stressed out parents, because we are doing the return leg. Spring Break is over and it’s time to go home, so its tired kids and parents who are financially broke who can’t wait to get home and send their kids back to school. Canadian Xpress would like to invite all pilots & virtual airlines to join us on Saturday, March 21st at 10h00edt (…

Telluride Regional Airport at an elevation of 9,078 feet above sea level, was the highest commercial airport in North America with scheduled passenger flights, until Great Lakes Airlines ended service in 2014. The runway is on a plateau and still dips slightly in the center, although the dip was more pronounced prior to a renovation in 2009. It can be a challenging but beautiful approach for pilots. During winter months, about 20% of the scheduled commuter airline flights end up diverting to other airports because of abruptly adverse landing conditions. When flying to the Telluride Regional Airport, pilots must be aware of unique issues impacting the airfield including h…

An aurora is a natural light display in the sky (from the Latin word aurora, "sunrise" or the Roman goddess of dawn), especially in the high latitude like Canada’s Arctic regions, caused by the collision of solar wind and magnetosphere charged particles with the high altitude atmosphere. The charged particles and solar wind are directed into the atmosphere by the Earth's magnetosphere. A geomagnetic storm expands the aurora zone to lower latitudes. Canadian Xpress would like to invite all pilots & virtual airlines to join us on Saturday, October 18th at 10h00edt (14h00z) & at 20h00edt (24h00z) for our October 2014 fly-in where we will travel from Vancouver (CYV…

Normally at Canadian Xpress we avoid simulating real world events so that we stay neutral on current events in the world. However, we think this month’s fly-in is a subject that everyone can relate to no matter what your background. November 11th is Remembrance Day in Canada, the UK and all the commonwealth nations. In the United States it’s called Veterans Day. Regardless of the name, the meaning is the same. It’s a day to remember and to pay respect to those who have fought and gave their lives in the line of duty. Canadian Xpress would like to invite all pilots & virtual airlines to join us on Saturday, November 15th at 10h00est (15h00z) and 21h00est (Sunda…

Diamonds are forever, but it takes a lot of work to find them and too get them out of the ground. The Canadian North produces some of the finest diamonds in the world. Working underground and in the Canadian North can be very problematic for personal and equipment. The diamond mines of the North are only accessible by ice road during the winter months. During this short 10 week period, hundreds of trucks pull thousands of tons of equipment out to these remote locations. However it’s still a year round operation, so in the months when there is no ice road, the only way to get in to these mines is by air. The ice roads are gone but there is still a lot of small equipmen…
