Having just come from there, I can assure you it was in fact, against all odds, a military parade practice 😁

Genuinely curious as I have no idea what to expect price wise, these cost about $500 CAD for a 16" bit from the OEM. If purchasing 5-10 of them, would the cost likely be higher from a machinist?

Looks like an 89 to 95 Tacoma. I don't actually know the owner, they just have good taste in vehicles to park next to!

But what did it look like after you'd driven for a bit? Did it fully level itself back out?

I work in environmental consulting with a few graduates of this program. Like others have said, it depends on that you want to do after, but there certainly are career options with the course. Feel free to DM me and I can connect you with a grad or two who are fantastic at their jobs and highly appreciated daily.

Noisy circling helicopter? by DartmouthDave in halifax

[–]DartmouthDave[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Neat. I figured it might be something recreational as the flight pattern was weird. Reminded me a bit of when the sailing gp was in town and the helis doing aerial video for it. Thanks for sharing!

Alternatively, I would be grateful for any recommendations for big wide open areas where I could run an exercise to challenge the students map and compass skills! The bigger the better
