Remote Hook - you make a good point, and just to make it clear I certainly don't lump Jan in with my comments - in fact he and I spent a year together one week at Rainbow Lake. The CHL school has an international reputation, and there are also a couple of others who are quite good - I believe I mentioned Paul & Richard at Bighorn. Both of those are accepted by BC Forestry, and they wouldn't be there if they didn't know what they were doing.

Interestingly enough, one of the questions in the FAA ATPL(H) concerns pinnacle-type approaches to tall buildings in high winds and turbulence, and the answer to that one is a steeper-than-normal approach.

Anyhow, back to that single malt.
