    Subject: A List Contribution - It's Your Personal Squelch Button...
    There is an automatic "squelch button" of sorts for the Fund Raiser messages. Here's how it works... As soon as a List member makes a Contribution through the Matronics Fund Raiser web site, their email address is automatically added to this year's Contributor List and they instantly cease to receive further Fund Raiser messages for the rest of the month! Its just that simple! :-) I really do appreciate each and every one of your individual Contributions to support the Lists. It is your support that enables me to upgrade the hardware and software that are required to run a List Site such as this one. It also goes to pay for the commercial-grade Internet connection and to pay the huge electric bill to keep the computer gear running and the air conditioner powered on. I run all of the Matronics Email List and Forums sites here locally which allows me to control and monitor every aspect of the system for the utmost in reliably and performance. Your personal Contribution matters because, when combined with other Listers such as yourself, it pays the bills to keep this site up and running. I accept exactly ZERO advertising dollars for the Matronics Lists sites. I can't stand the pop-up ads and all other commercials that are so prevalent on the Internet these days and I particularly don't want to have it on my Email List sites. If you appreciate the ad-free, grass-roots, down-home feel of the Matronics Email Lists, please make a Contribution to keep it that way!! http://www.matronics.com/contribution or, you can send a personal check to the following address: Matronics / Matt Dralle 581 Jeannie Way Livermore, CA 94550 Thank you! Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator [Note that there are certain circumstances where you might still see a Contribution related message. For example, if someone replies to one of the messages, when using the List Browse feature, or when accessing List message via the Forum. The system keys on the given email address and since most of these are anonymous public access methods, there is no simple way to filter them.]

    Guys, I seldom post, but this one is right up my alley, being Canadian and all. First, not to disagree with my good friend George, but you need a CofA Validation to fly in Canadian Airspace, no need to land. The CofA validation is obtained from Transport Canada (TC) and is valid for a maximum of 90 days. It will list the area you may operate, the airports you may fly to and from and so on. There is a cost to this, $100 Ca. The Canadian Aviation Regulation does provide the inspector the possibility to issue the letter for one year, but only to airshow performers who can justify it. I have had letters for a year in the past. You must email your request to caso-saco@tc.gc.ca where it will be dispatched to an inspector in the area you wish to fly who will take care of the paperwork. I have obtained them in as little time as 2 days, but to achieve this you must send all the required paperwork with your request. Often, paperwork is missing and then a long string of email begins which only consume more time. The required paperwork, which can be scanned and emailed, is as follow; Signed letter requesting the CofA Validation - which must include the purpose of the flight and area of activity. CofR CofA Limitation sheets Last annual inspection Last pitot static test Proof of insurance (liability insurance is required by law to fly in Canadian Airspace) TC will only look at your file once all the required paperwork is in and once the fees are paid. Then, the inspector will "ramp check" you from and distance and then issue the Validation letter. If you decrease his workload, he may very well get it done for you in a day... human nature, we do the easiest tasks first... Please do not think it is any easier for us Canadian to fly in the USA. Ten years ago, I would email the FAA and get a letter valid for the season. Now I need to write a full chapter to them and am given a letter that - technically is valid for the whole season - but specifies which dates I can fly at which airport. And I am not allowed the same privileges that the same airplane is in the US, for example, the FAA does not allow passenger in a Canadian CJ whilst flying in USA airspace.... cause you know these things are dangerous... Hope this helps. D Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=462235#462235
