Re: Porter vs AC

You know if there ever was a time for all Canadian pilots to band together to improve WAWCON nationally, it's now.

Re: Why everyone runs to AC?

I decided to pursue a career as a pilot with Air Canada for several reasons.

Moreover, the pension benefits provided by Air Canada are substantial; projections indicate t...

Re: Why everyone runs to AC?

The first 4 years flat pay is dog shit, that's why negotiations for a new contract are underway. And to be honest, even we don't get a "World Class Contract" the majority are staying, and new pilots will continue to join. The unmatched job security and pension benefits at AC are significant factors...

Anyone who continues to work at Flair has seen the warning signs for well over a year now. If they choose to continue working for a dying company, that's their choice. The wheel joke made me laugh.

Re: Flair Suspending Growth Plans amid Delivery Delays and Debt

I find the loan figures interesting. 20 planes. 189 seats. Four sectors each per day (based on flight radar and is VERY generous). = 15,120 seats / day = 453,600 / month. So $15 of each ticket sold goes to paying lease payments alone. Not including the other 300 million in debt. Yes I know this isn...
