RAF pilot crashes onto a highway while trying to pull out of a loop at the Shoreham Airshow in the UK

RIP

last i heard he was still alive?


edit: omg, he's in critical condition, but the crash killed 7 people! :/

can't imagine anyone surviving that fireball not to mention the impact at that speed... hope he pulls thru

and live with the guilt of killing 7 innocent drivers... tough choice...

Some Shell gas station in Surrey has gas for 10 cents a litre but only for an hour. Too far for me to make it in time.

it's one thing if it happened due to gross negligence... but this just seems like a tragic incident
nothing he did was illegal (that we know of) and as a pilot he's as experienced as they come, so unless you ban airshows from populated areas altogether, these things will happen rare as they may be




...on a lighter note, kid trips and punches a hole through a $2 million dollar painting :lawl:

Anyone know someone or have lived in The Standard on Granville/Davie?

Would like some feedback.

Question for everyone regarding duty and taxes from buying something from the UK...

So my soccer team wants new jerseys, I've found a style we all want, and would be ordering it from Pro Direct Soccer out of the UK. What I'm confused about is if we'd definitely absolutely be paying duty and taxes for them. I've had teammates order new cleats and things from Pro Direct and they didn't pay anything extra, but that's only for a few items instead of 14 jerseys (difference in item quantity and price). I checked out the CBSA website but it still left me wondering. Anybody have any ideas?

It might depend on where they are made, or how it was shipped. Either phone up CBSA to be sure, or assume that you will be paying for it and be pleasantly surprised if you aren't?

Honestly it depends on who the company ship it with.. (then how much is the net cost of the order)..

Commercial shippers (Fedex, UPS etc) with get you to pay taxes because they just have to.. If by Royal Mail because CBSA handles the tax collection for incoming mail.. it will be hit and miss.

Duty will depend on the origin of your item (if via commercial shipper).
Taxes GST/PST will be charged always by commercial shippers..

Royal Mail -> Canada Post both is maybe depending on the cost.

Do not get them shipped via UPS, their brokerage charges are outrageous and you will be hit with a large lump sum for brokerage.

Typically anything under ~$200 doesnt get charged duties when shipped via Canada Post. I always get my seller to ship via postmail, so it come by Canada Post. Most of the time I never pay duties. The only time i'm guaranteed duties is when shipping via large carrier(Puro,UPS,DHL,Fedex).

That being said, since you're ordering a large amount of jerseys you will most likely have to pay duties.

Wait But Why

I love the articles that this guy publishes. He boils down difficult topics into easy-to-read (sometimes long-ass) articles. For example, he's doing a series on Elon Musk and explains the reasoning to electric vehicles and space exploration. Have a read if you're bored!

Holy hell, does Cartoon Network felch donkey donuts

I want my Teletoon Retro back

:QQ:

If the company will not ship via their equivalent of Canada post or USPS then better not order. Like the other guys said, you will get hit hard for brokerage fees

^ supposedly there's a way around it by paying the duty at a customs office yourself, then you show UPS or whoever the receipt and they can't charge you the extra brokerage and duty. I'm not sure how to find out where all the customs offices are but I know every international airport will have one.

$50 vs
1. You have to call ahead to UPS to make sure the package hasn't cleared electronically yet.
2. You have to head down to UPS depot at the airport (Ferguson Dr. on the way to Iona Beach).. drive to the other side of the airport Miller Rd. get it cleared.
3. Back to UPS either pick up the package or wait for them to deliver.
4. Oh and deal with Richmond traffic

Sounds like it's more of a hassle down there than it is up here. Still, nice to have a way to avoid UPS' inflated fees if you aren't able to avoid them.

Can anyone in New West check for me if it's still there? or better yet pick it up for me? I can't go there right now, and would really hate to show up and it's already gone.
