Re: Recall of the NC
If you are all that unhappy, there is the door. Go to the US or whatever Utopian airline that will cater to your every whim, pay you a ton of money and only allow you to work 8 days a month. Best of luck in your future endeavours.

Re: How bad is commuting
I'm with AC and been somewhat junior most of my career. Just starting to see some better senority. I commuted to domestic reserve for a year in 2007-2008. Wasn't too bad as I was flying out pretty much each month. I did 7 months overseas reserve on the 767 in 2012-2013, but that was way more predict...

Re: How bad is commuting
Everyone has a different story about commuting. Personally, I have commuted for my entire 21yr AC career. Mostly YVR based and live in SK. First few years, had family in YVR that I stayed with. Was down in YYZ for 1.5yrs and that was awful. Not just because it was YYZ, but mainly the flop house cras...

Re: COVID MOA 2
Tony will soon be leaving the ranks of Air Canada. Not too worry though, Baby Fidel(Trudeau) has the perfect position high up in the Liberal Gov't. Soon to be appointed Ambassador to the UN. That way the CIA can protect him, just like TruDashian.

Mark, That was absolutely Class A+++ in my books! Well done. I too commute on WJ on a semi-regular basis out west to YVR. If possible, I always ask to be seated at back so I am last off the plane and express my thanks to the crew for giving me a ride. I try to help with the seat belts as often as po...

Re: Wanna Crop Spray?
I have to admit, so of the best fun I've had has been going back n' forth. I miss flying taildraggers. Good money during the summers, but you need something else to do during the winter. Not a real time builder. 250 hours is a really busy summer. Been out of it now for over 10 years as my office is ...
