Re: Walmart Greeter Wanted

Its not so bad. I signed a bond to start and never had to pay a dime. Now I'm a turboprop captain at the age of 24, making more money than any of my friends who took other career paths. Sure, I may elect to take a pay cut one day to get into an airline where my salary has more room to grow than my c...

Re: Radio operators License

Can you link me to those regs you speak of?!? Touche. I was looking at 401.03(1)d, and doesnt mention radio license... However, that doesnt mean it is legal to transmit on an aircraft radio without physically holding the radio license. Recall that that license is not issued by Transport Canada but ...

Re: Radio operators License

Agreed. Definitely a requirment to carry it in the states, and internationally. But domestically in Canada, no. When I was ramped in Syracuse, Newyork. FAA didn't even look at our licenses. Let alone our radio operating certificates.The purpose of this thread is legality. I was hoping to get some yo...

Re: Radio operators License

Is it a requirment to carry the radio operates License along with your license booklet when flying?! Yes. Not sure what your sources were for that answer, but the correct answer is actualy no. Reason I was asking is that I've worked for two 704 ops now that never asked me for a copy, let alone expe...

Re: Medical on the long weekend? YYZ

Thanks guys. Yeah, I'll try the extension. I've had it approved in the past, but my company made me pay for the extension fee (and the medical) myself... The new job is also not in a remote region anymore, which is the reason I'm flying south. I'd prefer not to be that guy that Shows up to groundsch...

Re: how long is my PPC valid for?

703 operations are no longer allowed to conduct training-in-lieu of a PPC every other year, so a full PPC ride is required annually. 704 operations can still do training-in-lieu every other year and only need to do a ride every 24 months, at least for now. Ok, That makes sense now. This must be why...

Re: Bonds

If you choose to leave 1-2 months in...what I am getting at is, how is this any different then going somewhere and paying for a PPC. Only through a company, you've given them a reason to keep bonds around. If you leave for a better paying job, that difference in salary between your new job and the ...

Re: Bonds

If you pay a bond, you've paid for your own training. You owe the company nothing at this point. If you can leave for a job that will make more money, thus paying off your bond faster, why not? If you can leave a dangerous company for a safe company, why not? If you don't pay a bond and agree to a p...
