Re: Perimeter Shamattawa
That's a tough price to pay for a lifetime of hearing damage and back problems. Neither airplane belongs in the north. They both need 5000' of runway to carry a load in the summer, maybe 6000 for the texas death pencil. How's Perimeter solving their balanced field length problem on the Metro 3? Som...

Re: Champagne Service Lawsuit
To label a type of service as "Champagne" isn't protected.
Is the title of the product "Champagne Service" and what is offered as a drink sparkling wine? Look into that and report back.

Re: SUNWING
Gilles,
Why do you rarely comment on the parallels that exist between SW and AT with regards to this topic? It appears you only concentrate on the fact SW does this seasonal practice. Surely what AT does is similar?

Might look ridiculous to you but on the financial sheet, it makes sense. Now, if you'd avoid putting them on your plane due to the looks and forgo the fuel savings, then we'd have something to talk about.ditar wrote:I think the scimitar winglets look ridiculous.

GTAA raises taxes again?
Is it true that the terminal 1 departures have again been increased with taxes? It used to cost $11 to jump out of YYZ and now it's getting into the $55 range? I understand that the airlines themselves don't increase the jumpseat fares but does anyone know if there's "bargaining" which we could do w...

Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
Do the Jazz pilots on the PMA have an ACPA number yet? Is it similar to Encore and WJ where a new OTS hire is junior to someone not flying at mainline yet?
That might make someone think a little before accepting a position when there's a pile of guys ahead of you already that may parachute in front.

don't care who says what or whatever the multitude of excuses,I feel being stranded on a parked aircraft for 7-8 hrs in order for those responsible to figure out what's going down is extremely dangerous to the health of people and unsafe.
