So you keep saying. Repeatedly. For context, I’ve been flying for nearly 35 years across roughly 15 types. In that time, exactly one pilot comes to mind who flatly refused to learn company SOPs because “the last place did it better.” One. Out of thousands. Which suggests this is less a systemic issu...

Possible. But I do not know. I did not work for Sunwing nor do I have any experience with their operation. There could be some improvements to the WJ SOP’s from the now defunct Sunwing airline. Sounds like they did takeoff in VNAV which makes sense and the plane is capable. But since it is not appr...

Maybe you Ex Sunwing pilots should learn the WJ SOP’s. It’s not that complicated regardless of your views. You guys and gals look very simple for the lack of competence with the WJ operation. All of you bitch and complain all day long about how bad the SOP’s are, but no problem accepting the pay ch...

I was always surprised that the team doing the negotiations are not professional negotiators employed by ALPA. Sure have Pilot representatives in the room but not doing the actual negotiations. I hear this a lot. I can assure you that you are better off with pilot negotiators supported by negotiato...

Hi FlyingFreighter. Sorry for no reply as I didn't actually notice your post until today. With regards to our ads, there has definitely been some movement as there is with any 704 operator out there. However, additionally, we have added several tails and are trying bolster our roster in order to en...

Right. Because Lisa Raitt under a conservative government was any better?

[/quote JBI] Despite crazy housing prices in some cities in Canada (and to be fair, Delta's junior base is LGA/JFK which has extremely high housing costs), the economic data shows that it's less expensive to live in Canada (primarily because of healthcare costs - as an aside, it's a really weird thi...

Sick @#$! People

Anyone who still thinks the vaccine mandates at this point was a good idea is a full on retard. These supporters are the same cucks who voted Trudeau. @#$! you and eat shit!

Likewise. It shouldn’t be “ insufferable” to save lives, care about others and protect your fellow citizens by taking a little shot. We lined up, rolled up our sleeves and did the right thing abs saved lives How does it save lives if the vaccine doesn’t prevent you from getting kovid? You can sprea...

Merry Christmas to everyone in this industry. It has been a tough 2 years. Hope everyone is doing well and wish everyone a happy new year!

That is a rich thread to start Johnny considering the recent accidents which have made all of us pilots look like a bunch of retards this last month. Aside from how you have asked the question (us corporate pilots couldn't make it to the airlines) I would agree that the majority of new and aspiring ...

Hi Tom Sorry to hear about the stolen property. Hopefully the people responsible are caught. It was amazing and a great accomplishment to see that 37 repositioned on such short notice to ZVL. On a side note why thank EIA (Edmonton International Airport) ? They are the reason why that plane is out in...

So the land is heavily contaminated, there is no private money behind the development, and the drawings aren't as advertised. Everyone in the Edmonton aviation community saw this one coming.

quote:Skully Really??? It was all Envision's fault for the airport closure? And you know developers out there that didn't want that land developed and would wish to keep the airport open? Give me a freaking break! I can't say I agreed with every little thing Envision did but they sure the hell weren...

[quote="Skully"] Saying that the media picked on the rich guy thing, and yet Envision offered up rich guys with planes as their primary spokespeople, kind of makes that a self-fulfilling prophecy. If that is not a piñata offered up for the media and internet hippies to bash all over, I don’t know wh...

[quote="Tom H"] The big problem...no one is talking to the public so they have no idea of what is happening unless they know someone in the industry. Disagree with you on that one Tom. Back in the 2010 civic election year the pro airport movement spent a tremendous amount of personal money and time ...

ZVL was never an option. Lengthen, widen the runways, increase the allowable take off weight, install an ils, upgrade the atc, and build a road to it, before we even talk about aircraft infrastructure just to have an airport out in farmland three towns over from Edmontons boundaries. Agree 100%. Ev...

Hi FlyGy, Thanks for the response (not being sarcastic) . I respect different opinions.

Wasn't trying to knock the the videos on the video forum. Just really liked this video.

Hi Guys and gals, I know there is a video section but I thought this one deserved the general thread where there is more traffic.

Enjoy!

Hi Tom, The logical and financial response would be to keep the city centre airport open as it once was. In the end the province will end up paying for the city of Edmonton's dumbfounded decision to close the airport. This will either result in a ton of money going towards CZVL expansion which I hig...

Hi Tom, Like Trematode, I as well have some honest questions for you. Why did you run in the 2010 civic election when there was already a pro well funded ecca candidate in place? By doing so you took away pro airport votes which could of went to Don Koziak (backed by Envision Edmonton). In the end M...
