I'm heading out to my parents place for the weekend. Cya

Kind of sounding like a broken record here but I hope the public is aware of this example: Jazz claims that there is a pilot shortage.....a friend of mine has just under 3000 hours/1500 PIC/1000Multi PIC ATPL and he told me that he won't be applying to Jazz. Not enough pay and to work for a company ...

Reduced Takeoff weight....whatever weight allows you to meet the Takeoff field length or balanced field length requirements.

wallypilot...exactly...and kelowna pilot...i didn't bother stating the obvious.

Hey Iceman,
have u looked at the pay for those jobs? Ah thats right...who cares.
Go and do anything to fly an airplane... be a real "asset" to the company.

22- B100 Capt 2300TT

The pay is like that because many think that " i just need to get some time and experience......and then the NEXT company will pay me more. Company's LOVE this mentality from pilots. Saves them money when people chase hours/airplanes. Next thing you know Jazz WILL be paying 35 K a year to start and ...

Why do people complain about the pay in the industry when only two people who posted on this topic asked about it?

Stinky...well put.

Well, there are two types of pilots.
A-Chooses Family and friends over career
B- Chooses hours, airplanes and career over family, friends and everything else.
Which one are you? There's your answer.

Not Yet.

There can only be one gods gift to aviation..so newfy can't be while your around bobgonnoosh.

Try Dr. David King I believe with Gibson Medical Clinic. If you head north on franklin towards old town...its a left i think 48th street rings a bell.
regardless..look up gibson medical clinic

bob sacremeno means thatu cant even attempt to write the atpl's without 750 hrs...so how can u be hired with 500 hrs when they want the atpl exams written. only of course if they didnt mean IATRA.

Apparently...by this summer, all aircraft required to have two pilots(in the flight manual) and aircraft requiring two pilots in a company ops manual will allow u to log co-pilot time one for one. Not 100% on the exact date that this will come into effect.

Hey I also read through the GS Manual front to back. And then went through EVERY question in the Aerocourse third/fourth edition. And MEMORIZE the equations....crutial...the first u do when u sit down is write them on the paper they supply. For what its worth( and i should of got several of these ri...

Wrote the Saron last friday. I went through aerocourse workbook 3rd and new(4th edition) Saw 75/80 questions in the aerocourse book that were on my saron.
Studied for 4 days(4 hrs a day)
Samra next week.

Very good post from an, obviously, experienced person.

Maybe jazz isn't recieving the amount of or experienced resumes that they use too. I'm pretty sure several qualified and experienced people have turned down Jazz, due to the pay. I mean..why leave a Multi-Pic position making 50-70k a yr to make 35K a yr? Cause its "an airline"? I think that most Tur...

and what Bob Sacameno said

could it be because during low airspeed flight....and if u have the engines at the same power setting, and since a 310 does not have counter rotating props like a 325 CR or 350, there is more airflow going over that portion of the right wing then on the left due to the down ward blade on the right e...

What the hell is going on....I keep hearing about people quitting there recently. Management....get it together.....stop looking around at things to blame it on...pretend your in a circular room with a giant mirror all around.....then, open your eyes and u should be able to find the possible problem...

...for the same reasons men are better pilots...end of thread

LOL...I love this stuff.

True, some people do leave on good terms but the majority were all preventative. Both companies may have the same number of people leaving but compare the numbers to the amount of people at either company and the percentage is greater at Sunwest. Then again, is having a high turnover really that bad...
