Curious as to where you found that accident summary. I couldn’t find it on the CADORS website.

Use a digital logbook. Make columns to your heart’s content.

I’m pretty gutted I can’t make it to Bissett tomorrow, both Jonathan and Tanya made being away from home very easy for both my summers there. Made me feel right at home from day one. Nothing but the utmost generosity from both of them. I do hope they find out what happened so it doesn’t ever happen ...

Imagine if Porter got rid of some noisy Q400s and replaced them with reduced frequency on A220s? Somethingike a 3 for 2 ratio. The waterfront area would be much quieter. There’s a Falcon 20 that comes in here all the time. You barely know it’s here. And then Metros and MU-2s come in here and it’s t...

Generally, the dock rats are not respected by the pilots, so use the knowledge and fly away somewhere else. I did and was better in the long run.

My brother is a dockhand at HA and has a great rapport with the pilots. Dunno where you hear this.

Does anyone know if the aircraft in question had one of the upgross kits? I don’t think it would have been overweight on this flight but I’m more curious about the effect of years of an upgross kit applied to a plane and it’s effects. It did, but it was the 8367 pound one, and not the other (9000 p...

Blows my mind that YKZ doesn’t have a tower anymore but Red Deer does.

Do we have an official body count yet? Is it for sure 3? Have they all been recovered?

One passenger has been recovered, the pilot and other passenger are still missing.

BWA has Walter/GE engines on their Otters and they’re not operating with that 9000 pound upgross or whatever it is.

I worked there for two summers. Very sad to hear this and my heart goes out to everyone involved.

Manitoba and Ontario. Start emailing everyone on PCC and then go for a drive in the spring.

I hope this sounds more supportive than mean but I think ant is right here. EI seems like a trick. I stopped applying for it a long time ago. It felt like too much hassle. I consider it another layer of taxes. Since around 1996 it slowly became much easier to just get another job. Good thing too. I...

Porter's office is so sad. They have these wooden models of the C-Series all over. It must be like a constant reminder of what could have been.

Porter would have been out of business if they had them.

Not if they could’ve flown them from YTZ, I don’t think. They basically own the airport.

Caravan or Kodiak, with that many people on board.

Funny to hear city folk assume these types nowadays instead of the Beav.

I just don’t hear a lot of Beavers ripping around the Muskokas.

Caravan or Kodiak, with that many people on board.

Wasn’t one of ours, but RIP to the victim.

How amazing of a sight that Hercules would be when it first rips overhead.

Because the reality that anything reasonably near the airport in Toronto is $700K like someone said isn’t always true.

You gotta look harder and figure out what you want to live in. GF and I just bought a condo in the beaches for $450; two bedroom, one bath. Pretty close to YTZ and a great place to live.

Might as well apply, but I doubt they’d take you at 650 hours. You could probably find an FO medevac job though. Ornge is hiring and the requirements are 500TT. Probably the best medevac company to work for.

There is no way that Winnipeg is a better place to live than Toronto or Vancouver; cheaper yes. Better? No. Not even close lol

MAYBE with one of the big operators on the west coast, but probably not with anyone else. It's usually go go go from May to October.

I’ve always said that Dock/ramp spots are great while you’re a PPL or working on your CPL; then you’re learning for when you’re employable as a pilot. Once you have that CPL though, especially now, there’s no reason not to go be a pilot somewhere.

Man, 5T is hiring at 250 hours, and 800 for a 737... wish I had known that lol.

Maybe I'll throw a resume your way when things pick up a bit.

250 hour entry is through flight following, under a year to right seat in the King Air or Twin Otter

650 hours, 400 float here... hearing probable direct to FO on anything?

Anyone have any hiring info on Borek? Website says 250 hours for FOs, it wondering if anyone here works for them and has any info.

PM if you’d like, or reply here if the info can be public.

Thanks in advance!

Also, AA's fleet is five times the size of ACs, and they have three times the staff, serving a country nearly as big with 10 times the population, with over double the revenue. Probably has something to do with it.
