That one went so far over your head... No, the position will be eliminated because you placed no value on it. If you don't value it, you can bet the company doesn't and will invest in lobbying regulators to eliminate it. And for the years leading up to that elimination you may as well be alone caus...

I’m surprised they settled it and those 12 should be mad as hell, that is the part I find ridiculous and a huge F you. AC could have garnered some good will if they just included all of them, so yes it was a win. They don't want good will they want to demoralize. This is the company that wants to e...

Respectfully, that’s a pretty simplistic and revisionist history take on that time period and that contract at AC for someone who wasn’t on property. You’ve been around long enough and should know that. -Jimmy Fair comment. Care to expand how it’s simplistic and revisionist? It was only an example ...

I don't get it, are you for or against pilots getting significant increases? JBI's facts and logic are good, but the reality is that pilot groups have been driven by fear for far, far too long in this country... And this is a perfect statement that shows that. Nobody had ever gotten anywhere withou...

We typically run between 85-90% satisfaction scores. The satisfaction score is the number of points you get divided by the maximum number of points you could get if you were awarded everything you want. So basically, on average, you're getting 85-90% of what you bid. I'm curious for those in senior...

It is indeed complicated, however… Is your new AIP not good enough to to retain jr WJ pilots? What about flow from encore? Not good enough to attract them either? You raise a good point. I don't know the reasons for why younger pilots choose AC over WJ but my guess is that the upgrade times play a ...

Fact is, there is a growing & worsening pilot shortage. There are simply not enough pilots to meet demand. Jazz is shrinking. Mainline is upgauging with rumours of more widebodies Either industry ponies up or they lose market share to people simply not traveling & US competition It's a bit more com...

I hope they are, but 15% generally won't cut it from the wage tables I've seen. 145 ish YR 1 CA at WJ 175 ish YR 1 CA at AC. First year FO a different story. I do hope the gains are better than they sound though! No one makes YR 1 CA at WJ though, with YOS, most WJ pilots start at about YR 10 CA Ex...

Well, I guess they could have just bent over and took it with the crowbar that was offered. I'm not part of this but some still antagonize by saying things like," Without crunching the numbers too much, just based on my seniority, I would think had they taken BOTL they would be holding left seat 33...

You misspelled “Was going to be recalled by the other MEC members”

Pilots account for roughly 5-10% of variable costs. Adding overhead costs makes that less than 10% overall. Any savings the company can get from pilots is a cherry on top in relation to other potential cost saving areas. AC needs your cooperation for the planned growth next summer. Don’t think ther...

You mean like when we turned down the TA and got FOS? You never learn. Go back and check our discussions. Your predictions are wrong and your character assessments are wrong too. You and the p4c are misleading the junior pilots and playing on their emotions. The only other comparison is apparently ...

So you guys are all convinced AC will be back at the table to offer more if their MOA gets voted down? The MEC/NC claims we have all this power and control so if this deal is as important as the MEC says it is, and also important enough to get managers soliciting Yes votes in Flight planning, then ...

So exactly what kind of "gains" where or are you expecting, what would be considered a reasonable gain at this point? It's never going to jump immediately to the remuneration being seen south of the 49th parallel. Fair question. There is no reason it should jump to USA levels of compensation for th...

The 17 year deal at Jazz that you are sh!!ting on included a 60% flow and a max 10% PFO rate. Prior to that Jazz people were PFO’d at a much higher rate. The JAZ MEC used bargaining capital to increase flow that you have clearly used to make it to the NHL. So you might want to thank the ALPA Canada...

I can't watch anymore. They keep calling it "big gains". I love how they keep pushing the 2% pay increase in April still being included as part of the ‘gains.’ It’s embarrassing they think like this. -Jimmy So exactly what kind of "gains" where or are you expecting, what would be considered a reaso...

Actually as of this month, YYC FO reserve is a 2020 hire. YYC line holders are 2016 DOH.

How long is it to get the 87 in YYZ? What’s the schedule look like Vs. senior 37 FO ?

787 is closing YYZ soon, so not applicable for the time being

All of the 87 ops moving back to YYC ?

I also would have though Jazz would be better in the long run and given better QOL with senority bidding. Also probably more opportunity for management type positions. Correct me if im wrong but WJ has social bidding not senority bidding? Curious to heasr peoples thoughts. I was planning on making ...
