Sorry Stig- I don't see the similarities. The similarity is that a DHC8 and a A330 are simply just aircraft types. I'm in no way saying this is going to happen because WJ's management actually seems to value maintaining a good relationship with the pilot group. But for a second imagine if your mana...

I got on at Mainline with 1200tt because I put on my resume that I'd flown with 7thirtyseven and they credited that time 10-1. Ahhhh, see MR REM has the idea, nothing like danger and placing your life on the line to hammer home a lesson or two. I guess it could be claimed that the poor "chap" that ...

Tell me then, oh wise one, what shall thy penalty be?

You might be right in theory. The matrix does not give any credit for military time. Those guys will be waiting just as long as any 2000 hour wonder off the street. Really????!! Hate to break it to you, millitary time is worth jack shit as an aviation skill builder. The only thing military pilots g...

Thx DaveP

DaveP, is it true the WJPA finally has pulled its head out of its ass? whats going on over there? Is someone ACTUALLY listening?

Csa functional test: 1. Tie your shoes: qualify for pilot position, move on to stage 2 2. Speak coherantly and smile: qualify for FA position, move on to stage 3. 3. Watch 4 hrs of red faced yelling by those who qualified for 1 and 2 interspersed with random blasts of shit from people who have given...

Angry much?

Is your buddy one of the Chief pilots? Like DaveP......

No, are the chief pilots picking the negotiating team for the pilots? Interesting way to work things...

I'm pretty sure he works there. Why wouldn't he know?

Well I have a friend that works there too, and these pilots are supposed to represent him. He doesnt know yet... Just seems odd to me.

Dave how did you know they were picked?

Don't trust the New Zealander. He is probably an Ork, agent of Sauron.

This thread is awesome.

I'm in tears....

Dont thank him, the "RH Bleed light" belongs in the same catagory as fuel dumping.... Fiction.

Ravensrule: You spent 6 weeks training to be an FA. I spent 7 weeks getting a 737 type rating. Just think, if you would have done just one more week of training, you could have been a pilot. On a serious note, most of us have a lot of respect for what you guys do and the contributions you make to W...

Ah new that makes sense Bede. Glad you got a good schedule. Mine was not that great but could be a lot worse. Onspeed. It's hard to answer your question because there are a tonne of one day high credit pairings in Toronto but much comparatively speaking in yyc. And our scheduling system doesn't all...

Completely ignorant, address the problem dont blame the person. Completely ignorant? Why would it be completely ignorant to support somebody in their realization that a certain job may not be right for them, especially after only a few months in said job. It is much better to address the issue in t...

to answer a few questions, help from the wjpa, not really, they are in the business of looking after WJ pilots (another thread), not us from what I see but feel free to ask your rep what they have been doing for us, maybe something behind the scenes, I don't know, they don't talk to us. regret my d...
