This is from another forum but i like how he sums it up...... As an airline pilot, I would spend many hours a week working for the airline I was employed by. I really enjoyed the job, the pilots and other airline personnel I worked with, so in many days this helped a 14 hour duty day fly by. The ave...

Hi Dave,

I was wondering if you might be able to shed some light on the experience of pilots that you have hired for the Sept/Oct groundschools? Airline/Corp/Commuter/Shuttle.......you know....that type of stuff.

Thanks in advance.

GREAT........ They are probably going to want guys with Shuttle time!!!

Q: Why does Air Canada interview and hire the people that they do??? A: At Air Canada they hire for today and tommorow. They are looking for people that fill an age requirement in the roster. They look at the current age of their pilots and what age they will be in 10, 20, 30 years. They dont want a...

You know......I would have never thought that 727 was owned by Peter Nygard!

Its a good thing that he likes to keep it on the down low!!!

From another forum: Do you know that when you see a pilot, he's not being paid? When you see a pilot going through the same security you go through, he's not being paid. When you see a pilot walking in the terminal, he's not being paid. When you see a pilot at the gate pulling up paper work, plannin...

I have always been curious as to why nobody has gone to the federal government to have this site designated a historical monument?? Correct me if i am wrong but wasnt it the first certified airfield in Canada? If it was designated a historical site, like a building, would it not have to be preserved...

Hi Dave,

I just have a quick question. Im a little confused as to why there have been company wide offers of LOA's to pilots but yet they might still be having G/S's in the fall. Is this an effort to save money?

There are many ways to get your foot in the door. As far as being a Captain on a transport catagory aircraft; you need an ATPL. Look in the AIM lra section or CARs for ATPL requirements. As far as the time required, most airlines upgrade based on time at the company, and most airline companies requi...

Okay....so the first microsoft ad was pretty good. First we were 200, then 1000, then 5000, now 7000, kept the culture. If you dont have it then your screwed brother. You know the one. But whats with the new one I heard today on the radio........ Question: Durf tell us about the airlines in this rec...

Haha...Thanks

Before the cba they were some of the lowest paid 737 pilots in the world. Now they are some of the lowest paid unionized 737 pilots in the world.

Miss Scarlet, It is very noble of you to come here for information on how to meet an airline pilot. Generally, any airline pilot is the same. A swagger in the way he walks, great stories about all the places he has been, broad shoulders to carry that massive ego around, the three ex wives that he fo...

Suluko is bang-on.

After you have recieved any ui payments and when you do get a job again, and are making a decent wage, that the taxman claws back a percentage depending on how large your new pay is.

When mistakes are made they should be a learning tool. This is not the first time that there has been a problem onboard and the flight has continued to the destination instead of landing when they should have. That makes it a policy and not an exception. The flying public might not be aware that you...

Common sense AND safety would dictate that you land at the nearest suitable airport in the event of a crew member incapacitaion. I guess the difference for me is safety first. Common sense second. The safety of the people onboard will always come before anything else.
