The Flight Deck

Taking you where you DON'T want to go.

During take-off and landing, all seat backs and refreshment trays must be in the upright and locked position and all seatbelts must be securely fastened.
Some electronic devices, including cellular phones and compact disc players, may interfere with on-board navigational equipment. Please check with your flight attendant if you wish to use any such device.
There is no smoking anywhere on the aircraft. For your safety, smoke detectors have been installed in the main cabin and washrooms.
Though the Captain will turn off the seatbelt sign, for your safety it is recommended that you remain seated with your seatbelt fastened for the duration of the flight.
If we encounter turbulence during the flight, the seatbelt sign will be lit and you will be requested to return to your seat.
For this trip through cyberspace, you will be travelling on a Boeing 747. Please take the time to note the emergency exit near you.

With years of flying experience, he studied Air Traffic Control at the NavCan Training Institute in Cornwall, Ontario followed by on-the-job training at the Toronto City Centre Airport.
