  1. It would void the warrantee. I bit my lip while Moffit Madza sold my youngest on exactly this (for $800 bucks including a paint sealer / polish) on her new 2016 x CX3 AWD that we picked up last week.
  2. A lot of lads here that need to go fishing. There's no "channel 16.. all stations.. all stations" in aviation. All I was pointing to about being "warned". A GREAT possibility that the Russian jet wasn't on frequency. Considering the size of these countries, I'd be three countries in at a mere 100 MPH before I realized where I was, can't imagine at Mach 1.5!
  3. Hard to be warned with your radio off frequency.
  4. Residental - Low density. Delivery - $35.92 Regulatory Charges - 0.25 HST $4.70 10% Clean energy benefit less $4.09 Invoice $36.78 Power usage ZERO. The only saving grace for me up there... is they've tried 3 smart meters now. Too much rock in the way for it to record, so we're only paying 9.4cents per KWH if and when we do use it!
  5. As for "plenty of money". Like the vehicle you drive, the bank owns it in most cases and it's no different for most guys that have airplanes. A way of life, they chose to make payments on their way of getting around and most don't have deep pockets. Most are poorer than anyone that owns a boat I can tell you that! The Crown has his airplane now and somehow, while sitting in jail, he has to continue to pay the bank back while the State auctions of his craft to the highest bidder. As for "murdering" animals, all would have been above board if he had of put his Mississipi home in his wife's name as sole tenant. This would have made him a legal guide with Alaska residency no doubt, but as I stated above with all they had against them there was no way out. They're paying the price for a show that most probably never heard of.
  6. Sorry Bill, misread it. Clark probably belongs there, his father (like many would) was just trying to help him out and as I said does own property in Alaska, a good piece of it. This is just one case conclusion, to what I remember right is over 13 different cases brought to various combinations of the same men. All my Alaska flying friends are in a frizzy up there, terrified that if they even fly into someone's camp to say hello that their aircraft will be seized as part of a "crime" for flying same days as a hunt. Envision me flying into your cottage and then having my airplane seized because we went out and legally fished a shoal that I may OR MAY NOT have flown over seeing fish on it. It's a mess up there, I'll see if I can find the entire diatribe on this. Remember there is always three sides to every story and the Crown has the most money to make it work out how they like. Not defending what transpired, but for a fair part the pool is tainted from what I've learned the past 3 years.
  7. They needed an example for new legislation going through and they got it big time. Other than this mess, Charles came across as a perfect southern gentleman when he flew his airplane all the way up from Mississipi for me to work on in May 2000. He does actually own property in Alaska. Unfortunate that his son lost his $225K US SQ4, although it's not the first aircraft they "lost" to Alaska. (picture in 2003 standing in front of the one I worked on). Charles getting to sit in the clink, at 70 years old, for 18 months is a bit tough but it is what it is! I'm sure he'll be out and back on an oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico before Spring.
  8. Was just showing what the absolute minimum that a hydro bill can be Dara. That is your base line with ZERO power usage.
  9. Always keep the blades sharp Raf or it's very hard on the drive train, especially when chipping a B'eech!
  10. $75 for electricity, amazing you guys can get through a month on less than 250KWH ! Camp in Temagami is $36.78/month for the joy of being hooked to the line. ZERO power usage and panel disconnect is pulled.
  11. Yep lots of options Roger.. the guy that painted my car in 1989 and sold his body shop then went to work at the funeral home to do "paint".
  12. You're a piece of work Mister G, thanks for reminding me of why I had stopped trying to help guys here with technical advise. Have fun lads, bust'm if you can.
  13. Let me go find another box of tinfoil.
  14. No need to be cleaning something constantly if you're burning the amount of fuel you claim, especially in a timed fuel injected 2 stroke. Probably not even the need for stabil if you're going through that kind of fuel. Must suck not being able to get gas at most marinas, since most have gone strictly to ethanol free premium to appease customers. Premium may burn slower, but it certainly isn't going to burn hotter if you aren't adding any extra air. As for knocking what I don't understand, don't even go there. BTW, you seem worried about voiding your warranty. I can guarantee there's a bigger chance of that happening running Seafoam than what the Opti is recommended to have added to it's fuel, being Quicksilver Quickleen. Fuel recommendation is 87 octane and Premium 92 is acceptable. I think you need to find a new service tech that isn't so quick to brainwash while taking your money.
  15. Don't understand that either Joey and I wouldn't be running Seafoam constantly either. Fuel stabilizer yes, Seafoam no.
  16. damn off
  17. Up to 8" now.. have to push the shovel each way from house to shop each time I come in. Oh well, we got our wood in and don't have to leave the property to go to work tomorrow !!
  18. About 4" of super wet compacted snow up here. Still coming down steady. Don't worry... 10C on Thursday!
  19. Nope, that was up to you when you were 16 B!
  20. That's what made RC fun... this Bull of auto home is for amateurs and those that like to climb trees!
  21. Not a hope in hell B!
  22. I've heard of "rafting" boats, but they'd better be wearing bikinis!
  23. Great stuff Rob. That kids got a pretty good pop and uncle!
  24. Would love a side door in mine, but I'd still want the front as well. Side door is perfect for your buddy running over to take a picture of your fish. Also makes it easier for entry the way I fish. Two holes, sunflower heater and finder. If someone opens your front door it swings in against the heater and you always have to be watching it. Also steeping back into your hut on a sloppy day has slush shooting sideways into both holes.
  25. Musky weather is late this year... (this was Nov 7th in 2007)
