I can attest to the fact that Jazz used N A IFR. Operated like that several times during my career there.

There is also something called, No Alternate IFR. All you have is 30mins on arrival at destination.

Fuel stopped in Petro once. Have you conversion app for alts. handy. They operate in metres. We were not issued an arrival until practically on top of the airport, then it was a scramble to get it programmed. The runway is full of holes and rough. Short taxi off the runway to the fuelling pad, but h...

'doiwannabeapilot' I hope you were joking with your statement 'makes me want to loose my mind'?

If not, then here's back at ya.

Lancaster & the B25 Mitchell

Tillsonburg - 2019

Jazz has never had any Q models except for the 400.

Only the 300's had the mini aisle.

Nectar of the gods.

Recognition...finally.

Actually, Air Ontario was the 1st. a f a I k, to operate a Dh-8 in a cargo config. We developed a cargo coversion kit for it, but that operation didn't last too long.

No, it is not.

I flew with Ray as his f/o at my 1st. flying job on a CV 440 back in the early 70's. He was a fun guy to be around and you could not help but like him.

Let's just hope it's not Buffalo Joe's planes that she's interested in.

I think Big Bird Annonymous needs to grow up.

I think it was her choice not to upgrade earlier, but I stand corrected. Lovely lady, let me use the jumpseat once on the A319.

Day 2 is Seniority, Base & Equip. draw, followed later in the afternoon by the ALPA indoc. and dinner...at least it was when I was there. Things might have changed.

When you get to the Sim stage of your training do not be afraid to say you do not understand something, or you do not feel ready. The company does not want you to fail and will give you the extra [within reason] training so as to be successful on your ride.

All I have to say is, "Wow."

I'll bet you if it was AC they were going to...no problem.

If the base placement is a problem at Jazz then go work for Encore.

"Also for those who are ALPA members, how does that work?"

Not sure what you mean by that statement. Everything is governed by DoH seniority, unless you are coming from another ALPA carrier then your DoH [for ALPA seniority purposes] at Jazz is the date you joined your original company.

Not necessarily.

The pics. tell the tale.

I joined Jazz at age 36 and never looked back. Had the opportunity to go to AC but never took it and no regrets with that decision. Best training to be had from a great bunch of guys & gals, mind you I'm sure my instructors went home and had a stiff drink after my training sessions :roll: Now retire...

Yes, Jazz does have a JS program with other carriers. However it is only available to a pilot employee. Reduced travel is available to parents but is subject to the agreement with the carrier.

No.
