How does one get a job overseas though if it is almost impossible to get time in a jet in canada?

I stay NOT suggest Boundary Bay unless you enjoy spending most of your time going back and forth between the practice area near pitt meadows and waiting to get into the circuit while the air is filled with ppl that have NO idea what they are doing.... Your best bet is pitt meadows plus BB is in the ...

dont you think you are put at a disadvantage learning to fly with a stick compared to a yoke like most aircraft you are going to face in your career?

most of you are sheep

i am ashamed at our gov and the west..... what the hell is this gonna do, a bunch of rebels running the country??? you think they will be able to run free education and health care??? libya will now be sent back 500 years

I bet these birds will be actually made to fly and deal with a little weather unlike these american planes that spend 90% of their time in the shop

Hi, I love this forum and it has pretty much scared me off my dream of getting my commercial rating, but everyone bitching seems to be gunning for the hardest jobs to get, that make the most money. I would be perfectly happy making $30,000 flying around some dinky plane. Why is everyone so hell bent...

so how the does the film crew know they are gonna have to make an emergency island on that small island? somthing smells fishy!

someone tell that RCMP officer that it is 2010 and plasma tvs can be had for $500.... I bet he has a 30 foot sat. dish still

fly out of PITT at boundary bay you will spend half your time and money trying to get back in the circuit

So you have 12,000 hours and cant get a job flying ANYWHERE???!!!!


I don't believe you

its people like you who make the world a bad place....

Actually Tim, you might be closer to the truth than I would normally admit, but.. What IS with the damn kids and their texting and tweeting? You can't have a conversation with someone under 30 without seeing them sneaking covert glances at the screen of their mobile phone, which they hold cupped be...

Really no contest. More opportunities and better pay in Canada. But since you have dual citizenship, why limit yourself to one or the other? Nothing stopping you from going back and forth for a good job. I would think due to the small amount of airlines in Canada there would be less opportunities a...

If you were starting your Aviation Career at age 21, and had a dual citizenship, where would you look to start, Canada or the USA? It seems to me that there are many more opportunities in the America if I am not mistaken. Any insight would help!

Squamish? LOL its only good for the Mcdonalds on the way to whistler. Just kidding but I wouldn't live there. North Van is nice, might be little pricy though. Victoria is great as well. I would stay away from Nanimo though

Wow you people are so brainwashed it is hilarious. Weed is completely harmless from a physical point of view, and has many positive effects. Mentally yes it can have negative effects but that is like anything else if you over do it. What is worse, someone smoking weed during their off time in the ev...

Why do they drug test? I fail to see how smoking a joint during your off time has any effect on your work performance as a rampie....

For 12 a hour this all seems extreme, just another example of how the industry exploits the people desperate to work in it.

Is this a good investment with their recent "success". I keep hearing it is a stock to watch from reuters and other places. Do you feel their load factors will continue to grow? Thanks!

That thing looks undamaged, russians can sure build tough planes

how hard is it to get hired for the ramp if you have your cpl?

I would fly out of Pitt Meadows if you are interested in saving a ton of money. Most of the time you will be flying in the pitt lake practice area, which takes at least 20 minutes to fly to from CZBB there and back.... Pitt you are right there.

Quit complaining.... Go out and get a ramp job, and be thankful that someone gave you that opportunity, you think someone is going to hand you a job because you spent a bunch of money and are "following your dream"... Jesus

Seriously.... What are you thinking????? Go into debt 40,000+ because you can't wait to start? Heck, if you work at mcdonalds for a year full time and live with your parents I am sure you could save 20,000 in a year. Im guessing you are still young? what is the rush, you are a lot better off just wa...
