This helicopter crash is no more important than any other helicopter crash.

Oh right... today's infatuation with celebs and the media's infatuation with ratings.

Medevac Merlin 2A in Thompson in the early 2000s. Checked for all documents and asked to accompany me on a walk around. No big whoop.

After a cold clear night and flaps, spoilers, and ailerons out to the winglets covered in thick opaque hoar frost, of course the stab would be as well, and no mention of de-icing from the Captain's PA I let the FA know to notify the pilots during push back about the state of the wings. After another...

Ugly!

So how does this affect the Swoopers?

So what does this mean for Swoop OTS hires of the past year, particularly Captains?

We had a senior Boeing Captain go to Swoop and he sounds happier than a pig in shit after taking close to a 50% pay cut to work much longer days. To each their own.

Diploma or degree plus $130k means it’s a rich kid cadet program.

Oh I see now... just inboard only.

Thanks.

EMB-145 not have ground spoilers? I didn’t see any after landing in that video.

I think we're all rather confused, fortunately not as confused as Air Canada managment regarding this change though. *shaking head* Air Canada is a supporter of the Liberal Party... Trudoh is pushing his identity/Gender agenda into the skies. We could always say "Peoplekind, welcome aboard" Wrong. ...

Air Canada is a supporter of the Liberal Party...

Trudoh is pushing his identity/Gender agenda into the skies.

We could always say "Peoplekind, welcome aboard"

Who exactly does ladies and gentlemen exclude? If you are a transgender woman would you not want to be called lady? Same for a transgender man. Please someone fill me in since I think I'm getting old and out of touch with society. Pat... It's time for androgyny... it's Pat! "Ladies, Gentleman, and ...

So Trudeau takes his kids and his entourage to up Iqaluit on the Nolinor 737-200 to spend a day telling the people of the north how he is the best choice to protect the environment. Let's see... Ottawa return on the -200 burns about 19,000 litres of jet fuel. What a climate hero!!!

"Welcome aboard Ladies, Gentlemen, and Others" "Welcome aboard peoples" "Welcome aboard humans" "Welcome aboard non-descript travelling public". I can't believe my kids have to grow up in this shit storm.

Let's not forget Greta is a credited actress with 5 books she would be happy to sell you. Gee, I wonder how her book sales did after her UN/Montreal hysteria.

I'm going to happily leave my chem trails across the skies as I wait for the next mini ice-age in 2050. Keep calm and burn that gas!

The Saab is a 4th generation fighter while the F-35 is a 5th generation fighter.

But don't we have a 3rd gen military in this country?

Surely Sunwing is great for many pilots that have chosen to work there. No two people like the same thing. I only use stats, as non-emotional as it gets. Is it not true that many Sunwing pilots have left for Swoop? What's their reasoning? F/Os going for minimum left seat time then get the hell out,...

The Ethiopian Captain used control wheel force to bring the nose up rather than the nicely placed electric trim switches by his thumb. He forgot about controlling the thrust and then he got tired. In the Lion Air crash the pilot used the electric trim switches many, many times to bring the nose up a...

It will be the safest plane ever known to man after this is all over.

So safe they should change the name to the 737-SFR

Nothing beats a good road trip to meet with chief pilots and leave your resume and a good impression.

Wonder how many original scenes will be rehashed in v2.

it's a hard pill to swallow to go from a senior captain to about halfway down the seniority list. With the merge everyone keeps their seats but any roll backs and you might go from 73 captain to right seat on a dash or ATR. 7F has a lot of senior pilots who were working there prior to 5T ever exist...

All mid to junior F/Os leaving for Swoop left seats and a few to Air Canada. A few left for Encore left seats previously. Flight ops integration won’t be for a few years so nothing really changing for us other than uniform and livery when that eventually happens.
