If the company actually cared about image, they'd get us a uniform that's actually well made and nice to look at. Not throw a temper tantrum over lanyards. Maybe someone knows the contract, don't they have to pay pilots to come in for meetings? If so trying to reprimand 5000 pilots would sound expen...

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...

The point I was trying to make above is that your post misses one huge component which was NOT flushed. There remains a very significant influence related to the direction of these negotiations, an influence fully imported from the debacle that was ACPA. Its not pilot led, its the exact opposite. A...

You don't even know what Im talking about.

Now go blow your nose.

Yeah you’re talking about LRD. I’m more educated and informed than you likely realize.

Not everyone here is a kid. You realize you have a ton of colleagues in their late 30s and early 40s right? Like full grown adults with families and children? This type of attitude is why so many of us can’t stand half of you older pilots. Disconnected from reality and sold away our futures for you...

It absolutely is pilot led. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

Just like MM on the other forum. Best to ignore. I’ll take my own advice.

Go away.

If he showed up to a picket he'd know that. Awe, you ok big baby? Having a little cry, little tantrum? Ive been voting NO to shit contracts since probably before you were born. I know it's hard for some like you, but you may try consider a bit of humility. Your (anonymous) keyboard drivel vomit doe...

Yes you do, but for every time you follow the regulations to a T, I can tell you that I've seen more than 1 time at a gate where pilots have laughed and intentionally dragged out getting on the plane or dealing with paperwork to "time out" intentionally. It's one thing to do it for safety, it's ano...

They are too busy supporting their own interests by doing things like VO to pad their pensions. The well-being of the Membership has never been a priority for them. Their true colours are apparent. But we knew that all along, so no surprises here. Pretty sure 90% of your colleagues would take VO if...

Neither Comeau or any of his side kicks were at the YUL picket

Can't speak for the other ones.

Ok whoops. For some reason I thought I heard he went.

It would be good if the admin on this website actually banned people. And helped keep the trolls away. But it seems like they are nowhere to be found. But then half of the Air Canada posters would be banned. The trolls would. Then maybe people would stick with one user ID and start acting like adul...

Honestly, what type of pilot is taking a job at SkyLink in today's hiring market? I feel the same way about pilots who work at SkyLink as I do about those who stayed on with "Pivot" after Air Georgian closed up shop - that is to say, there has to be something significantly wrong with either your pe...

It's a huge scam!

Reach out to your LEC, P2P or SPSC committees. They’ll get one to you.

I *think* DC in Montreal showed. As for the rest, no.

Yeah it’s so hard being a pilot complaining about working 12-14 days a month and “Holding the Mine” You’ve got a plum career. You can sit in your 3 cottages and enjoy more than Half the month off and cry poverty. You really need to fk off. The fact you think all pilots at AC have cottages and work ...

Maybe you should sell space on your pretty lanyards to fund your strike pay?

I think we’ll be ok. ALPA Master Contingency fund and all. More than ACPA would ever be able to fund on their own.

Yeah, coupled with a ton of bullshit gives in the failed MOA. The flat pay going to 2 years was a distraction.

Focus on the salary yes, but not the flat pay structure. That is more than likely on the way out regardless. Personally I'd like to see it changed to "probationary pay" and have a similar system to Delta. One that can get you off probation faster or slower depending on total time flown, and recurre...

By the logic posted above, a garbage man should be making $250,000 a year?





To all the actual airline pilots here, ignore the likes of Accountant, Rookie Pilot and others. They just want to tear us down because they're jealous of us and what is to come.
