Funny how Skyservice is at 0, its by far in the top best paying jobs in Canada if not the best including summer deployments, with 1st year FO's with the potential to make well over 100k. Hell with the starting pay at 60k+ with year over year increases of $7000+ and the UK deployments paying 90 pound...

IFR Pilot, You didn't sign a bond at all, you signed a bank loan in your name to ML. A bond like in many other campanies you mention......pilots are not liable if the comapany goes bankrupt. It is a transparent agreement, not the sad transaction you signed up for. You did not sign a bond, you signe...

Is that like running a JetsGo groundschool?

I wouldn't be surprised if they were losing money on the whole deal just to somewhat guarantee...

Re: What about this pilots who tried to reset IRS in flight!

Do you know how many emergencies we had overthere ???? I've never had any knock on wood. The only closest thing to an emergency at Jetsgo ever was a precautionary shutdown of an engine as these things happen from time to time no matter what your flying.(once again knock on wood). Still I believe yo...
