Re: encore to fly 787s
It's a King Air, 200-Hour wonder's wet dream come true! They'll be so thrilled! Just think, this month you're flying a Q400, going around on landing as many times as you please and, this time next year, you'll be doing it in Boeing's newest transportation marvel!

Better yet, cap the executive salaries to COLA increases only and forego any and all bonuses until the deficit is gone.

Re: e190s
While the bins are great for luggage as you can just put the bins one and off (helps with turn around times/man power requirements) the big benefit would be cargo. If you have big bulk cargo on a crate that needs to go from LAX to FRA you can take it on the narrow body plane out of LA and bring it ...

Re: e190s
Oddly enough, I got a call on Tuesday from one of the ramp trainers at YYZ asking if a 737-700 bar would work on a 737-800 as they were going to be handling one later in the day.

Re: SELF-DESTRUCT -- PRESS
Unions breed inefficientcy and selfishness and largess.. I guess you haven't been watching managements pay skyrocket for the past decade, despite their lack of performance. All the while, front line staff have seen their pay stagnate. You want to talk about inefficientcy(sic)? How about the 18 VPs ...

Re: CUPE serves strike notice for Oct 13, 2011
This is very much a PR campaign. Damn straight, and EVERY union at Air Canada should be waging it as such. We should all be banding together and pushing ads in every major newspaper across the country, along with television, getting the facts out to the public. Let them know that the executive pay ...

I have been working on the ramp for 7 months now and am taking my wife on summer holidays. Boy doesn't this say it all - a rampie with 7 months of seniority getting summer vacation. You guys all want to be treated equal during contract time, but clearly we are not all equal at this company. Never s...
