Really? ACr is operated by ACPA pilots. Had they out-sourced the flying like Qantas did with Jet Star (and it was tremendously close), I'd agree - but I digress.
Interesting article.

Re: Commuter towns west of YYZ
Stoney Creek (Hamilton). 45 mins driveway-parking garage @ 120. 407 access ... but don't use it all the time. If commuting during rush...sometimes as long as 1:15 (unless a drunk dump truck driver takes out the Burlington Skyway bridge). Constant morning rush hour traffic stretches from Grimsby east...

Re: 10 year agreement with pilots
No date has been set for a ratification vote. An extensive cross-country roadshow is underway to roll out the details. Both company and ACPA are giving the members time to digest the facts before rushing to vote.

Re: Rouge rosters?
LOL looks like I threw a match into gasoline. But looking back I guess my statement re: 777 CA pay was a bit misleading. You work to earn your pesos. We're a bit short handed and the company has been drafting a lot. One Capt pulled in 28k in the month (albeit 4 or 5 of that was from the ACPA profit ...

Re: Rouge rosters?
YUL base is opening up for the 319. 10 spots. Will likely grow.
319 is starting florida layovers.
When you take a breath and look at how pay is awarded...it's a pretty good deal. A few 67 skips are making 777CA pay (if not more). Floating around a pool on a noodle for 2 days aint bad either.

Re: Question about Rouge from ATC
Is that right?
I'll try and remember that on the 48 hour layover in Athens, while on the beach.
Looks like everyone except for France and Swiss have figured out the "ROU" call-sign.

Re: MILLARDAIR MRO HANGAR
Ya, well, unfortunately Canadian law seems to be largely influenced by fortune.
There's no punishment too cruel for those found guilty. Even death would be too easy.

@ Dash-Ate: My point was that JetsGo had significantly deeper-rooted problems other than a second type in the fleet. For instance, its CEO. Valid point re: fleet diversification, associated cost, and financial transparency. But I highly doubt Porter would pay less on the C than on the Q400. Performa...

Ehh, no. Michel Leblanc killed JetsGo, along with his other 6 failed airlines.Dash-Ate wrote:Some say the additional Fokker 100 type killed Jetsgo...if they'd just stuck to their core type & routes.
