Working with you sounds like working with a dictator. I wear my red lanyard, but I might just start doing VO whenever I can so I can watch you seethe. Dictator? :lol: For real? Is that sarcasm? Surely thats sarcasm. If you feel that distressed by red lanyards, toss yours in the garbage, put your Ai...

I honestly think this constant lanyard posting does more harm than good. You might be right, pathetic that it's even an issue, but that is the Air Canada Pilot way. ALPA has not changed much it seems to me.. I honestly think that soon you won't have to worry about it. Lanyards are the very tip of t...

Sorry, new about the whole reserve stuff. Is sliding day on RSV seen as bad ? In a word, yes. Things like sliding days, sim vol, VO, selling vacation, extending duty days may seem insignificant to many, but think of it this way. Anything that seems good for you in the very short term helps the comp...

Thanks to acpa, a complete overhaul of the contract needs to be done. This won't be a quick process, but both sides are meeting frequently and actively engaged in continued negotiations. Ahhh, well more accurately; Thanks to an overwhelming majority of Air Canada pilots, who from since around 1998,...

Im guessing that ends the discussion regarding Professional Pilots.

A lot of talk about professional pilots here.

These are the professionals pilots - with professional pilot actions - I want to be associated with.

Fully AC-ALPA Endorsed. Period.

Edited to correct "ALPA".

I'd rather stand behind professionals that bullies who want to dictate what other people do. Sounds to me as though you are in the right place. People like you should have your own union. so you are saying you prefer the bullying and threatening, and those that don't should have their own union whe...

if in fact the crew believed it dire and with loss of craft or life as imminent Irrelevant for this particular case. If they deemed it necessary to declare an emergency, they should have used mayday. We agree. More clearly stated, always a relevant — consideration — for clarity. Whether invoked or ...

It all worked out, that’s the most important. I agree the pilot transmissions probably contributed to some confusion. I agree that had the words Mayday (or PAN) been transmitted — if in fact the crew believed it dire and with loss of craft or life as imminent — this incident would have resolved in a...

Listen up, it's high time to cut the nonsense. You and your crew think you're running some kind of street gang, pushing around your own colleagues. That's not how we operate here. We're professionals, not thugs. Your bullying? It's a disgrace to the uniform, an insult to every real pilot flying wit...

Assuming you are on flat pay, you will also have the pleasure of hanging your head in the customs line knowing that you are one of the lowest paid wb pilots in the world! Yes, true. Precisely what the overwhelming majority of Air Canada pilots wanted, and on a regular basis. Democracy sucks for me ...

Generally, as I flew the 330 and 340 years ago; It currently flies some decent routes out of YYZ, summer Europe destinations. Lots of spring to fall crossings, lots of days away, lots of DH and lots of being tired. RPs do not have confirmed J DH yet as well, something to consider. Nice cities, but P...

This is not a scolding I’m hoping it’s reflective Wearing RED helps your MEC Helping your MEC helps YOU Helping your MEC helps lift you, helps lift me Helping you, me, it helps everyone around us Helps everyone behind us It helps our families It helps our kids Wear RED Btw, a quick call to ALPA and ...

Sorry, I could have more clear,.. I understand the legality side of your reply, but maybe I was not clear enough. Let me try it this way; Example; Your flight time is 10 hours. 3 Pilots, your duty is 13. In the afternoon, with a winter storm about to hit, you call in for a 4th, duty day now 18. 4 of...

I spent 25 years at the bargaining table. rudder With that type of experience, let me ask you. In a few sentences, did you ever discuss pay for outbound delays during those years at the table? With more and more responsibilities being dumped on us outbound, it will be a non starter for me when it c...

Need more red lanyards distributed. Did a turn the other day, between that and my commute I saw one.... Mine! Ya, that's the AC Pilot way. Very ACPAish. Lots of talk the talk, we are talk the talk experts. MEC missed a great opportunity as well regarding lanyards, I touched on that back a page or t...

We are running at 50% OTP and literally have disabled people dragging themselves off airplanes! A national embarrassment!! Yet the executives are more concerned about what lanyards the pilots wear! It should be apparent to all that they have lost control and are in panic mode. Interesting strategy ...

Call it shortsighted if you like. I'm triggered to vote no as anything that has ever been presented to us in the past could have benefitted from a solid NO vote, at least ONCE. If you fear external forces acting on good faith bargaining, then we have little hope. As employees, we have rights that i...

I hope Im mistaken. Really I hope I am. I am FULLY supporting the MEC, I just hope this time it is different. Thanks for supporting the MEC Aof1. I totally get the apprehension caused by the past. Wary as a result is natural. Keeping the MEC accountable is required. Questioning required. It’s all p...

Sounds like you and I agree. If that's an olive branch then ok, I accept it. If not then perhaps I pounced on you a little prematurely, and I offer an olive branch. We all need to stay keenly focused on our common enemy, all rowing with the same oar. You're back in my good books. Send the right mes...

Aof1, The structure and governance within ACPA was fundamentally flawed. Repeatedly single individuals had an outsized impact on negotiations. It is why MS and OB, from the very beginning of our current chairs term, wanted to know who they were negotiating with. They didn’t mean which group P4C/ AC...

Deleted. Duplicate of the above post.

And you all thought I was the troll. Even your own pilots disagree with each other 😂 I don't find it hilarious. More like just a dumb comment, and intentional on your part. We have over 5500 pilots at Air Canada. It's ridiculous to expect all members will agree on all matters, most especially, give...
