Great work Gilles! Every kid in flight school (in Canada!!!) to Navajo and 1900 drivers should thank you!

Signed it.

"Great, Friggin Outta Work" Canadian Pilots.

Another question is why the hell are any of you guys climbing above 310? A quick check on flightaware showed one or two flights in cruise down at 310, there but still most at 370 and 380...

I say again, will maintenance, rampies, dispatchers, CSAs, schedulers, managers, and executives go on a B scale to get the LCC off the ground? Or will the pilots be expected to carry all the cost cuts on their backs? Again. This won't create any new jobs, just a transfer of all ACV flying to the LCC...

It's no secret that Transat only hires bilingual pilots. However the degree to which you are bingual can go up and down depending on if they have reached the bottom of the pile of French Canadian resumes and are dipping into the pile that has Anglos that speak some amount of french. The Anglos that ...

C'est pas fort ca.

Verybadman, Congrats on the new contract. If what you say is true then I guess I retract my earlier statment about the 3rd year WJ FO. Bottom feeding companies hurt all professional pilots and by the sounds of it, Canjet isn't one of then anymore. Put the new details on airlinepiltocentral.com so ev...

I hope it's a good raise, talk about lowering the bar. According to airlinepilotcentral.com, right now a year 3 WestJet FO makes more than a year 3 Canjet Captain. Ouch.

Skylounger, Corrige moi si je me trompe, mais il semble qu il yest un probleme de borne dans la liste de pilotes chez Transat. La borne (protection de la base) est trop haute et il y a peu de gars de YUL qui veulent prendrent les places de commandants a YYZ. Chicken wings, Il n'y a pas un problème ...

Quoi de plus honteux qu'un equipage qui part d'une ville majoritairement francophone pour une destination majoritairement francophone avec des passagers francophones, et le commandant "john Smith" est meme pas foutu de faire un P.A. en Fancais!! On voit ca souvent sur notre transporteur national! Q...

Nice post Davecameron! I laughed my ass off!!!

13 days? That doesn't include your 3 day carry in or 2 days of reccurrent training.

And with memos like this going around, I'm sure more to leave...

Situations when it is NOT appropriate to use personal travel passes:


So, you can use your passes for vacations only, which you don't get at Jazz for a least a year after you start... Nice.

Or like Cat Driver said: fu.k e'm let them go bankrupt because they can't find pilots...

I'd like to see that happen too!

One of the problems with these companies paying big bucks to attract drivers is the reputation of the company. When things slow down in 2009 or 2010 there could easily be a memo go around announcing new payscales, just like they have done in the past. If you want to work for these guys, get YOUR law...

Some of the best advice on this page ever!
