Re: Skylink Express

The lack of response should give you an idea of this company. Remember when your mother said, "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all?"

I'd look at air georgian if this is the level you're at. Good luck.

Re: Sunwing at it again!

Re: When to expect a phone call?

You'll receive a call in exactly 5 days at 13:49. Does my answer seem stupid? Well, so does your question. If you can't figure out why asking when you'll receive a phone call for an interview from a bunch of people who know nothing about you is pointless, than maybe you aren't suited for this positi...

Re: Have questions for YYZ Tower? Ask them here!

a few years ago, departing in a B1900 off RWY23 for a positioning flight to YTZ, we were asked if we wanted a VFR departure. we took it. than were given a departure instruction for an immediate left hand turn-out to keep it inside of the control tower. best departure i've ever had out of YYZ and i w...

Re: Air Canada Interviews

i interviewed end of march. no call. and why is it a good thing if they call your references before the medical? i heard the opposite, that's it's not a good thing. i've also heard rumours of the next GS being canceled because so many sim instructors are booking off and now line indoc captains are g...

Re: Kenn Borek

what would this position pay? and what are the conditions while ON rotation? do you have to pay for food etc out of these insanely expensive arctic towns or is it all part of the deal? that would be my biggest question here, not how much is it to live in yyc. also, and this is a serious question, wh...

Re: going missed on a contact

Just wondering, do your computers automatically add the correction or do you have to apply it manually? And off topic, but I hear people all the time constantly check into Centres in the climb/descent stating the altitude they're leaving and cleared for. Is it not true that when you are initially ra...

Re: Visual / Contact / IFR Approach Clearance

Thanks. The reason i started asking questions is because i was flying into an MF (Ontario) and i asked for a visual because i could see the airport from 40 miles out. The controller told me the weather was just below his limits for a visual, no problem (broken cloud layer) so i requested a contact. ...

Re: Visual / Contact / IFR Approach Clearance

Thanks. What are the weather limits exactly for you to issue a visual approach? Also, if the weather is "good," what do you prefer an airplane requests? Just simply a visual or to cancel the IFR and either leave the alerting open or close it out completely? And when an airplane cancels and leaves th...

Visual / Contact / IFR Approach Clearance

Hi, Can a few controllers give me their perspective for clearing an airplane for said approaches? I just want to know what is involved on your end and your requirements for these. I'd like a better understanding of what's going on when I ask for these types of approaches at MF's or Uncontrolled Airp...
