It doesn’t matter what you bid, they don’t have to train you in the new position.

220s won’t be ETOPS, they said the airplane is too small for any overseas flying

Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
March 11, April 1, and April 22 are the next groundschools. You can expect groundschools every 3 weeks for the time being, possibly every two weeks in the summer with between 30 and 40 new hires each.

Re: A320s
AC has no shortage of pilots, the issue with the wide body position is that pilots don't want to bid them so they'll simply go to new hires.

Re: AC pay rates
900 guaranteed for pilots on flat pay (75h a month). Used to be 900 guaranteed for everyone when we had the Cargojet wetlease, I’m not sure of the status of that now. A wild guess would be around 80h a month average depending on the fleet and how productive the flying is, block holder vs reserve etc...

Re: AC pay rates
Nav Pay applies to overseas operations defined as:
Any flight operation that departs and/or arrives outside of Canada, the United

Pilots on flat pay don’t receive nav pay.

Re: Flight School Warm Temp Cutoff
At the school that I used to work it was at the instructor's discretion if you wanted to fly past 35 degrees or not(including humidex). We were on salary so most people would stay inside when it got that hot, but you could fly all day and melt your brain if you wanted to.
