Re: Georgian RJ's
It's a strange merger between R1 and GGN. GGN pilots will stay in their union and continue to fly the 1900 and the R1 pilots will stay out west and fly what they fly. GGN makes the majority of its money through maintenance and the charters out west, giving it a good position there with plenty of par...

Good news! But I don't think that it'll be taking off from the island any time soon, or if at all.

They were offering to pay $10k with the condition that he/she would take all applications to other regionals off for one year. The video that CanadianEh Perfectly sums up how the talks are going lol

Re: Pushiness
Thanks so much for sharing your experiences guys! In my short career I've encountered several situations which made me ask myself if I was dealing with professionals, both on the operational side as well as the flight deck. Usually the guys on the other end of the phone don't know the consequences i...

Re: New Year’s resolution
After a little more than a year in this industry I am also going to call it quits. Calling it quits after 1 year of a 40ish year career... Yes aviation is not (for the most part) the golden job they promised you it would be in flight school, but it does have it's up sides. My first year in aviation...

Re: New Year’s resolution
After a little more than a year in this industry I am also going to call it quits. Took a couple of years of training to get to where I am but the future isn't looking too bright for me. That'll be my new year resolution as well, followed by getting into bloody shape (something that I lost as well w...

Re: Airlines Face Acute Shortage of Pilots
Good! Hopefully this will improve the working conditions down south by increasing the demand for pilots. And I am with Sully on this one... something's rotten in the state of Denmark.

Re: Career Question
Do whatever you think is right and what will make you happy. Take the advice of the pilots above me and make your own conclusion on what you want to do. I'm in the opposite position. I went through four years of aviation college and was lucky enough to get a job flying right seat for a commuter. It'...

Re: Cargojet Second Officer Position
I graduated Seneca last year and about six guys from my class got the job at CJ, with about another six or so from the previous year. I keep in contact with the guys from my class and they're having a good time but as others have said there are other jobs out there that would be better. Some guys wa...

I don't know too much about the materials that are out there but this workbook provided me with most of the information that I needed. I also attended the course offer...

I did my interview with the Troy Stephens (CP), Dan Bockner (VP), and a HR representative. Although I was intervi...

Re: AC is such a mess
I am part of the public and I want a strike at AC. When will there ever be an appropriate time for a strike? Never, that's when! This is complete bull and I regret voting for this current government.

Re: seneca program/ eyesight/ tattoos
The tattoos shouldn't be a problem as long as they are covered up and as North Shore mentioned, if you could pass your cat 1 with glasses then lasik really isn't necessary. I graduated this year and I highly recommend it if you have the time and dedication!
