For the WestJet guys here, just wondering how long your average day is and how many days you work per month. Also, when you do work, are you away the entire time or do most of your trips bring you back to your home base the same day? Ok and since I’m asking (thanks for your patience) is it true YYZ...
Nothing to be ashamed of Bede. I think the rate of climb on the NG is a by-product of being a 3300nm airplane. On a short hop, even full, the fuel load compared to what is a available, is small. The exact ROC depends on A/C weight of course, but at FL390 something between 600 and 1000 FPM would be a...
WJflyer The last I heard Canada was still a free country. I may not agree with everything Blaster posts but I’ll be dammed if I’ll stand by and listen to you trying to suppress his freedom to post what he likes.. Hey, aren't you the clown that claimed to have E-mailed WS because you didn't like wha...
You will go any where in the route system, except Honolulu and Maui (you need an ETOPS ground school, line indoc, line check). Other than that, a typical month is anything but. YYC-YEG-YMM return one day, Cancun overnight the next, Halifax and TO the next pairing. Maybe a charter to a Carribean isla...
RVSM Still, better than being a liar, and a know-it-all. Don't you agree? Come Tuesday morning we'll see who has the last laugh..You're still not bright enough to do your homework. Really? Is that when you will post difinative proof that the Alberta Government paid for the WJ hanger? I can't wait.
If you’re a corporation making political statements is never a good idea. Hmm if the Liberals, win aviation will retain the present Transport Minister. If the Conservatives win, rumor has an interesting new Transport Minister. Someone at WJ didn’t do their homework very well.. You have the inside t...
Harry Bagina Canus Chinookus CanadaEH exbengal I see all the usual WJ type professionals (?) posting their usual stupid immature remarks. No wonder AC had the good sense never to interview your types.. Hmm I always wondered why the WJ employees blindly denied the corporate espionage charges in spit...
Since you know everything asbout everything, did AC donate the aircraft, fuel, and crews when it owned NWTAir, and it's Hercules spent years hauling relief supplies (mostly food) during African famines?
Those estimates are certainly no more full of crap than your statements about the good times and profit sharing being over at WestJet. Next year looks like about 25% growth at WJ. Perhaps HMY will out pace that. My point is that you guys love to take shots at WJ, even though you don't have a clue ab...
Never worked for either but I'd look hard at Harmony. At least if you start at Harmony today you might make Captain sometime in your life. If not at least the type rating is useful! The good days of upgrades and profit sharing are gone at WJ. WJ is very stable, and if low pay in YYC as a career f/o...
Actually, quite accurate JS. One small point. At WJ we are flying 80 hours per month. If we fly 85 in a month, the additional are at time and a half. That would bring the monthly gross to about $10,500. Also, if ya got time, I have some questions about the EMB. What is the max altitude, normal cruis...
Diversification is key flt levels. Theses blastor types console themselves with thier brainwashing digs, but they haven't a clue. WJ has the best fundamentals of any airline in Canada. Bear in mind though, stupid people have their place. Here is an example. I bought stock in a junior O&G a year ago....

Yes, Ryan Coke. If you don't buy into the lunatic pontifications that ol' Reb flatulates in the direction of this forum, you must be on drugs, drunk, or stupid
The inability to defend the aformentioned fraudulent claims is the sign of a weak character, or mind.
