beat me to it. Ya chartright bought it few years back

One thing you must know before owning a Mooney is they are for the most elite aviators in the sky, a league of distinguished gentlemen. Chicks dig em too

With the numbers projected for flow thru is it going to be sustainable for the express carriers to loose that many to AC in such a short time? All of the express carriers have slashed the min requirements to a heart beat and a CPL with a splash of turbine SIC time to fill GS already. If the hiring f...

Bose QC 15 and a Ufly mike. Best set up for a fraction of the cost

Anyone care to share the specifics on this lil gem?

There is a huge difference between working for a management company and a good corp gig. I think Aurora is one of the best out there these days. Guys seem to get some sort of schedule, decent pay and stats which is very rare in the world of managed jets.

Guuaaaarrrrrrd

the poster is just trying to be an ass. Jazz still pays better than Sky and Georgian and Encore. if not in starting salary than the per diems will make up for it real quick. about 12-13k a year in per diems tax free. Those base salaries are also based off of an average monthly and with the reduced ...

The mooney is a great little bird. Im 3 years into owning mine and still under 4 grand for both annuals and routine maintenance including avionics subscription. Up front is tight but ive flown 4 hour legs with 2 heavy boys up front and we did just fine, for my wife and I its perfect. Every 4 banger ...

Maybe they assume that with 4000 hours you respect yourself to much to work for 30k plus a guaranteed 10k a year in per diem that somehow helps pay rent and not feed you on the road. I did get PFO'd on step 1 (phone call) so I am a little bitter about the whole deal. Good luck Which requirements di...

Just announced on the radio up here today: We are very excited to announce the addition of Buffalo Narrows to our fixed base of operations. The transition of the fixed base of operations in Buffalo Narrows from Courtesy Air to Transwest Group of Companies will be effective August 1st, 2015. Transwe...

Actually considering that you have no control over where the parachute will plunk you down, that was a very fortunate 'landing'. Didn't even block traffic. You never know in America though, you could end up parachuting into a bad, bad neighbourhood. Pretty good chance coming out of hobby you will e...

[quote="ba31pilot" I would also like to add the comment as to how much ALL of us appreciate the openness and the constant feedback that your company has been providing.[/quote] I cant agree more, So many operators work hard to have threads deleted on here. Kudos to Air Sprint HR for stepping up and ...

Walked it a few weeks back and it looked in good shape. Call the Red Deer Flying Club for an update, they maintain it.

Minimum of 80% new hires will be from AC express. Is that guaranteed? As far as I have heard and seen the only part if this rodeo that is in writting is that 700 and some hires are coming from Jazz making up 80% of the GS. Once that is exhausted 6-8 years from now its anyones guess what AC will do....

Rumours are true. May 1 is the day.

Best flying and best bunch of guys I've worked with. Like the OP I don't think you'll find to many ex employees feeling bad for Jackies loss on this one.

If there is rear mounted engines like a CRJ then the upper fuselage is considered critical surface.

On a cold Tuesday evening while sipping back 3-4 liters of moonshine a buddy slurs to me "Heeyyyyy i nose i guy ooo cad go fly for" 3 weeks later i was crashing a king air onto gravel strips all over the north hammering out a 80 plus hours a month. Never ever turn down an opportunity to drink fine b...

New hire FO pay scale from the MOU Year 1---36.00 2---37.00 3---38.00 4---40.00 5---47.00 6---53.23 7---58.95 dash8-100/300 cap 8---63.31 The scale goes to 15 years but I couldn't get paste to work. Add 2% to the scale every year plus at least 10000$ in tax free meal expense That cant be right. Aft...

Considering if you want to fly Mainline in red or teal these days you have to jump into a regional and spend 5-7 years in the minors before you get called up to the big leagues. Considering pay/schedule/working conditions for new hires which is a better place to call home for nearly a decade before ...

How many guys are they running in a GS for mainline? Seems flow thru onto the jets is going to be a long haul. Even at 50% if they run 3 gs a year with 8 per class. Whats a new hires number at encore? Are they over 150 pilots now?

Can any actual encore folks chime in and say what the right seat pay is? It cant be as low as guys say on this board

I think everyone has forgot about the one list at Encore. Even if it does take 8 years to move to mainline all that time on the seniority list counts toward base selection and, more importantly upgrade on the 37. Encore wins by a long shot. So mainline hires a guy straight into the 37 today, a guy ...

I think its only YWG office in the Prarire and Northern that will do them now. Mine was almost 4 months.
