Re: If I am willing to go anywhere in Canada, is there ANY job for a 180 hour pilot?

Ask TC? Ok. https://publications.gc.ca/collections/collection_2021/tc/T22-242-2019-eng.pdf TC's authorized person manual. See page 79-82 for the requirements to sign off multicrew typeratings and high performance type ratings. The results may surprise you... Lol. Well I did speak with a current TC ...

Re: If I am willing to go anywhere in Canada, is there ANY job for a 180 hour pilot?

Also I saw on PCC that it says "Intermediate Airline Transport Rating". That's hilarious. So then is TC wrong or PCC? Like what the hell is happening in aviation?!!! It's Individual Aircraft Type Rating I get the IATRA is mostly used for 2 crew and that it is after your MIFR and before your As but t...

Re: If I am willing to go anywhere in Canada, is there ANY job for a 180 hour pilot?

You guys are painful. No, most assuredly It's for both the 2 crew aircraft and for high performance aircraft that require a type certificate to fly . (Over 250 kts Vne, or a stall speed of over 80 kts). Hence the single pilot a/c in the appendix. but please feel free to call TC to prove me wrong! I ...

Re: WESTJET ultrabasic

I don't think I've ever been a passenger on a plane with zero carry on. Is there a market for this? You're still allowed the "personal item", which has to fit under the seat, and (in theory) must fit in the sizing device at the gate. In reality, however, the gate agents are very hit and miss about ...

Okay. I literally sent you the link to exactly the HP Individual Aeroplane Type Rating that is also required to have an IATRA with.

It even stands for Intermediate Airline Type Rating. ;)

Re: If I am willing to go anywhere in Canada, is there ANY job for a 180 hour pilot?

To clarify some above info the IATRA is not necessary for HP aircraft. IATRA allows non ATPL’s to get a right seat type rating in a two crew aircraft. You do not need an IATRA to get a type on a king air, 1900, PC12, MU2 or anything of similar sorts. It is ONLY required for two crew aeroplanes. Man...

Re: If I am willing to go anywhere in Canada, is there ANY job for a 180 hour pilot?

Get a float rating and try and apply to a company that has a small floatplane or two like a cub, 172, 180. They are often registered privately and I would assume you could build time on that and move up to the commercial craft once you have the time and experience and have an awesome summer or two ...

I'm not sure I understand how you're getting released at 180 or 190. Is it because it's integrated? Because the MIN requirement for a TC approved CPL licence is 200 hrs. Full stop. Thank you for the answer. Actually the integrated ATPL course requirements are 205 hours of flight time of which 55 ma...

My parking was paid for so, can't help you out there. Sorry! Does your employer pay for vehicle travel? Per Diem, etc.? I do know (have taken in the past) a shuttle and depending where you live, it was about 20 bucks or so.

Huh. Looks like I was wrong. You really only do need 190 hrs under the CPL(A) course. but how would that translate into job finding? And also - wow. Less is more...I guess? :| At least you still need a CAT 1 - so I guess that's something.

Sheesh, crazy times.

As a Frozen ATPL, CPL + MIFR student finishing an integrated course sometime later this year with a little over 180 hours, I am wondering how on earth do people that finish flight school with less than 200 hours, which is the minimum requirement for a single pilot high performance airplane type rat...

"I recommend, Excel Flying school in Lethbridge"


I do agree with this statement though. Excel is amazing! They get you in and out, don't waste your time or money and their CFI is CRAZY knowledgeable.

Of course I'm biased as I did a decent amount of training there.
