  • CASARA Newsletter August 2012.Cdr
    PEP Air - CASARA August 2012 Hello, I trust that all of you have had a great summer. Fortunately it has been a fairly quiet summer for PEP Air. I would like to think that it is because we are doing our job and promoting air safety to the flying public. Cranbrook was the scene for this year's Western Canada SAREX that was held August 17 - 19. The weather was almost perfect. With temperatures running into the low thirties density altitude played a big roll for the safety of all crews. We had aircraft flying from Manitoba, Alberta and BC. Ray Sass from Yorkton, Saskatchewan was out to observe how we put the event together as he will be hosting the event next year. After the day's flights and ground homing, the teams were treated to baron of beef dinner at the old firehall at the airport. Most if not all the critiques are now in with nothing but Alton King accolades to the team that worked in putting this event together. Director General My thanks to all of them for a job well done. PEP Air - CASARA We found a small glitch in the CMS program recently. It shows that in some cases if a member is put into the program under an event as 'Participant' the time is added as academic time to their training file. This would then show that a member may be "Certified/Current" when in fact that member may be missing academic time. We are asking all administrators that are entering data to watch out for this and enter the members as "Other", that way the time is not accumulated as academic.
