Re: WJ Hiring
AR jockeys are headed out the door when they lose arbitration in August. That makes 200+ eligible for manditory retirement in the next 2 years. Not everyone retires at 65 as well. Always a reactive solution rather than proactive. How can you be so sure that they are going to lose the arbitration? W...

I think it's pretty obvious, the guy f.... up.
For me the debate is whether the punishment was over the top or not.

Re: Speed Got Too Low
Victoria from Cun is about 6 hours.

I am pretty sure a flying school would be interested.
It will give the students an idea of the material they will work with in the future.

Re: WestJet to Integrate Flair soon?
The FOM says to advance to full thrust initially.
Then, you adjust it.
So it is whatever you think works.
In the FOM also the PM is supposed to adjust the thrust.
In the FTCM the PF is supposed to do it.
There are a few things that are done online that doesn't match the FTCM.

LCR Long call reserve. The company must give you a minimum of 14hrs notification. However report time can fall out of your RAP. It means that they can't call you but they will put the pairing on you schedule and you are expected to check and acknowledge. Also during a 5 day block if you get called a...
