Transponderless border crossing

Post by Walter Klatt » Sat Feb 18, 2012 10:05 am

What works out here is to call the regular number to get your
discrete transponder code and tell them that you will be crossing
the border without a transponder, and are requesting a waiver.
They initially might act like they don't know what you are
talking about, but if you persist, and ask to talk to a
supervisor, they usually let you do it. You might even have to
call again, to get someone else to talk to. Bruce G. did that
last year here and it worked for him. I found this out from other
locals here that do that. Our number is 1-888-YVR-CODE, but
assume there must be an equivalent out east for you guys.

Also, I understand you can apply for a waiver ahead of time, so
you don't have to go through that every time. Here is a link that
might help with that.

Bruce, you might want to make use of that, too.

hi guys Yes, it was a great day in the north I
almost landed on the
floats, wheels up, on the snowmobile trail formed by
many sleds travelling
across the bay. But chickened out in case I bent the
floats. I should
build a set of skis for the bottom of the floats.
Have a plan that I
believe will work.

I would really like to fly to Sun and Fun in April.
Ideally with a
lightweight seaplane pilot to share costs and piloting
duties. Any one in
this area interested?(Parry Sound or south)

Someone had the name and number of the Feds in the
States relative to
crossing the USA without a transponder etc Walter? maybe

Hope you're wearing a floater suit this time of
year...that water can't be
overly warm on Harrison!

Real neat pics, Wayne, reminds me of where I grew
up as a kid in
Manitoba, except we didn't have airplanes then,
but used to get
around pretty good on the Skidoos and the old Snow Cruiser.

We had a nice day here yesterday, so made it out
to the cabin on
floats at Harrison Lake. Today it was back to rain
and drizzle,
good excuse to get some work done in the hangar.

Transponderless border crossing

Post by Legeorgen » Sat Feb 18, 2012 10:05 am

Walter,

Thanks, I saved the number to cross the border without a transponder for
reference next summer. I kept it last year some where, in my flight bag, I
think.

How is the Chinook? You must be ready to fly that soon.

Bruce
