Why on earth does the following job ad give me shivers? 250 TT requirement, way far away from the GTA/YOW/YUL/YYC and et al… Promissory note for a non type rated position? Okay, I still remember (dare I say with foundness?) Countless visits to the EI office and long road trips to get my next gig aft...

It's more on the line of "what will the inspector accept"? If I see others then I know what they are expecting as they won't give me any feedback on what is acceptable and what is not. Yeah that’s your only hurtle and frankly unless you have stumbled upon an outcast I have found that most of my dea...

Yes obviously all those 703 operators need their own version of GPS theory to ensure it's properly applied to their operations.... Since they are all using different GPS satellites and GPS networks right? With gps the exception, all the rest need to be tailored to the operation in question. I have ...

Double post. Sorry.

They wouldn’t touch anything small including a PC-12 when I looked into it pre covid.

Looking forward to paint some fences? Get smacked on your head by joe himself? Did the market really turned that dire to go work for red necks? I'd take instructing any day over playing stupid games. On the flip side I guess you can get to be a TV star! For an individual who is still very green in ...

The moon is too small for totality. It looks like dawn or dusk during a full eclipse. The correction to that is 'it depends'. The earth-moon distance varies over the course of it's orbit. If moon is at it's closest to the earth at eclipse time, totality can last up to 7 minutes and it will be compl...

From TSB..... C-FSKX, a Keewatin Air LP Beech BE-20 was operating as KEW205-M departed the Yellowknife Airport (CYZF), NT, en route to Cambridge Bay Airport (CYCB), NU. Shortly after reaching their planned cruise altitude, the flight crew carried out the mid-way check and realized that the flight h...

Something I found online Why does everything feel so unaffordable? According to the pre-1983 CPI calculation method, inflation is nearly TRIPLE what current CPI data says. If you used pre-1983 CPI, inflation peaked at 18% in November 2022 and currently stands at a whopping 8%. Under this method, ho...

You can get a 705 FO position without an ATPL. I just have an ATPL Frozen. Does your license say 'Airline Transport Pilot' on it, or does it say 'Commercial Pilot' ? You left a bit of gray back there… Assuming a CPL holder also has a valid IATRA then yes the candidate could potentially crew a 705 p...

Ya sorry thats going to be a hard no from most of us here (except maybe the one FOAG guy that keeps talking about it). We didnt sit around for a year and a half during Covid - thinking we’d be getting our jobs back “in a few more weeks” - to start spreading love (socialized bidding) with people tha...

You didn’t get charged or convicted? The police may keep a record of detaining you but that won’t show up in a record check.

Unless you’re omitting something… good to go as far as I can see!

Good luck,

Quick question and direction, finished all my IPC training and next is the “flight test”. Just got hired by an operator flying twins and they’re going to be training me for the PPC on their aircraft (12.500 and under). Should I spend the hundreds on getting the IPC at the school where I finished th...

15 million saved? In 25 years? You'd have to sock away/have your investments perform to a tune of an average of $600,000/yr in accumulation. That doesn't sound realistic. I’ve a few friends currently at EK and 15 M doesn’t sound too outrageous with compound interest and if a very aggressively well ...

Very sad indeed. Vincent had an absolute love for GA. Like beyond passionate about GA! I’d never met anyone so passionate about flying in general until I met him nearly 15 years ago. He flew his own aircraft to countless fly ins, maintained his own radio band and just talking shop about flying in ge...

Am I missing something here? Isn’t AC sitting on $10.5 billion in debt? I’m sure you’ll give me some crafty lingo why AC’s debt is fine, but the competitors are one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel. :roll: https://companiesmarketcap.com/air-canada/total-debt/#:~:text=Total%20debt%20...

What is your power management technique on the 985 when you’re at your destination? Do you start reducing 3-4 miles out? 2 miles out from the downwind, I start backing off the power slowly… the mix was leaned and carb heat set into the green so slowly start moving the mix knob forward and gradually...

I believe you guys are making a mountain out of a mole hill. I’ve had to declare an emergency twice with US ATC. Both times the sheer mention of “stoping climb 2XX requesting block XXX declaring an emergency at this time” *Poof* Dedicated controller, gave them POB, fuel and in both cases no DG’s. R...

Seems like a typo after a copy paste of a job ad. Not really something to fire an HR manager over, no? Perhaps not although if I was overseeing this person’s position I wouldn’t be impressed. Cut and paste… the definition of lazy. What could be worse? Not proof reading it! Your HR is the front line...
