Thanks, guys...this just came up again so I checked yur answers and will pass it on!

I am in Europe right now, and visiting with some European ATC type people. The discussion came around to use of English in communications with the center here, and a question, which I am unable to answer, of what percentage of communications with Montreal ACC, terminal and tower are in English. Anyb...

Gilles, I think you need to clarify whether you mean the percentage from start of classroom training versus starting on the job training. The classroom portion you pass the tests and evals and you continue training, or you fail these and you do not continue training.

As far as I know there is no list and individuals must consult their doctor.

We do go to CAME for medicals here in Mysteryville, and I think everywhere else (?), but I have no idea what may make them say "not fit for duty".

I have split the speculation posts from this thread-facts and condolences may be posted here, all others will be moved to the speculation thread. Reference a post back on page one-weather observers are required to do an "Accident Check" weather observation if an accident occurs in the vicinity of ou...

Hiring/training/job postings are within each FIR. If you apply in Edmonton, as stated above you could go to any of those towers or others within the Edmonton FIR, depending on where they need staff.

Bad taste or not it is going to happen on here as we all know from history. It had already started. So we created a thread to keep it out of the other one.

Pretty sure you would get a job offer if there is an opening, but I think once you go to OJT out of the school, you aren't guaranteed return rights with EOCO.

All terminal (approach) units in Canada are located in the Area control centres, not towers.

Thanks for posting that Sulako-gave me my first smile of this horrible day. Condolences to the families of the whole crew.

If you look at the bottom of the Board index page, where it says Who is online, just now it says "In total there are 1151 users online :: 119 registered, 27 hidden and 1005 guests (based on users active over the past 60 minutes) Most users ever online was 1269 on Mon Jan 16, 2012" S...
