Re: Jazz new hire pilot schedule
Depends on type and base. RJ typically has longer legs, higher credits, so less days worked (about 13 a month at YVR for some) and less reserve coverage, making it easier to pick extra flying or wdo. So also higher income potential. DH8 has shorter legs, less credit so more work days, enough reserve...

Re: Pilot shortage, how long?
There is no pilot shortage at the moment. If there were, you would not hear so many pilots complain about the pay and benefits offered by entry jobs (flight instruction, 702, for instance) or by 705 operators. Will there ever be a pilot shortage? I doubt it. Bill C-33 in 2012 made sure unions have m...

Re: CMA Upgrade Path
There is no written rule for upgrading or switching type. It is up to HR, and the 704 and 705 CPs.
Most 705 captains are former B1900 captains.

Re: Flight dispatcher employment
In order to work here you need to have a legal right to work here. For an employer to help you with a job offer towards a Temporary Foreign Worker work permit, they need to prove that they cannot find a suitable candidate in the available workforce in Canada. Which of course is not the case here. So...

Re: Why using carb heat at low power settings
Simplified... The carburetor is a venturi. When air goes through the narrow section, pressure and temperature drop. The lower pressure sucks fuel through the spray nozzle. The throttle controls the size of the carburetor opening, allowing more or less flow to the cylinders. The narrower the opening,...

Re: Wheel landings 2
I met Tony Markl once shortly after I landed in Steinbach, MB. He was redoing the fabric on one of Harv's aircraft and was staying at the same B&B where I was. Nice old guy, even if a bit quiet, happy to share some wisdom. He gave me a hint on how and why learn morse code when I had not even started...
