Quick couple of questions for my ATC brothers and sisters.... 1. ILS approach. Vertically, what is my protected airspace? Between the IAF, MAP and to the missed approach hold? Legally, does the protected airspace extend up to the final missed approach altitude from anywhere on the approach? 2. Speci...

Don't forget you also need to be 'stable' which everyone coveniently forgets. So if you are VMC and we have to be stable by 500' then you can't go REF switch off below 500' otherwise you would have a 15/20Kt speed change which means you are no longer stable.

#GoodLuckWithThat!

Reductions out East if required
More aircraft coming to YYC
10-15 upgrades in YYC

You forgot the question mark.

"What's going on over here?"

Easy there Jimmy... I don't think the 'bar' has been lowered at all. The cockpit jumpseat is controlled by the company, it is afterall their aircraft! A Captain has the right to refuse access to the jumpseat if he/she wishes but does not have the authority to override the priority list as set by the...

Yup, Jazz CSA trumps AC Pilot for the cockpit jump seat.

I am not one of the Plaintiffs.
Was just speaking with one of them earlier in the week.

There is going to be an appeal.

Absolutely no reason to think a new hire wouldn't have a job in 6 months.

I have an interview coming up in Calgary in February. Just wondering what the chances are, provided I was successful and accepted an offer, for getting a Calgary basing? If so, would it be possible to commute from YEG initially? What types are operated out of the YYC base? Is there a good source fo...

Air Canada Rouge... Doing the same, only cheaper! In theory

Its open book so don't even worry about it. One question was something about the fire coverage at an airport being '3' (or something along those lines)... what does that mean. Open the provided book, look up the relevant section in the index, turn to the correct page and there is the answer. Oh! Jus...

Oh o! I think someone had 1 too many beers and is headed for a time out with no chance of remission!

I also heard that CR can leap buildings, levitate cows by staring at them and catch bullets with his teeth.
Get real, if AC had that sort of reach it wouldn't be in the shitty mess it is today.

I still think you are on crack!

Then why has it been turned down?
I think you might need to ease up on the conspiracy theory crack pipe!

Heard SR had its A320 application turned down by TC. Which I assume means no 767 for them either.

Of course... getting rid of 15 EMB175s will completely solve all the problems. There will be labour peace, everyone will get a pay raise and the pensions problems will vanish.

I'll try some of what you're smoking please!

Here fishy fishy fishy!

Jazz may or may not see them. It's a brave man who says never. There is more to it than just the basic price of a seat charged by sky regional or jazz.
Starting salary isn't 35 and you only pay for half the uniform.

But,agreed, no need to poke the bear!

Confirmed. 3 techs working to set it up. So it's not 'overflow', it's being set up because CAE needs it for a client. I wonder who...........

It might be the less favored method but so what? If someone wants to fly an approach cross controlled that's fine. I'm not going to get in an argument about it. I have an opinion and it's obviously different to yours. And you opinion is not only wrong, it's also uncomfortable! Oh Doc, I knew I coul...

Excellent post! I think you are doing yourself a disservice... You sound a much better pilot than you claim!

Now we both understand our positions on this subject we obviously have different standards with regard to aircraft handling skills.....no problem.

Nice and subtle little dig there Cat

Everyone's correct, you're just more correct than everyone!
