Does anyone have the Air Transat payscale? I have a friend, who claims he makes significantly more than the new hire Rogue guys. Judging from what I've seen, I believe him.

To everyone complaining about the overselling of seats, you need to wake up. It's 2013, not 1965. Deregulation of the industry has caused fares to drop significantly over the last 30 years, and as a result so has the level of service. You don't like it?

Guys, there is a larger issue at stake here. Canada has just announced they are discontinuing the penny. How is Encore going to pay their pilots now!?

Friends don't let friends, go to Encore.

My guess would be the NEO since they already have most of the infrastructure in place. Secondly, I would imagine it would be advantageous to keep multiple aircraft brands in the fleet to keep them competing against each other for future purchases.

Thanks

Most people who end up getting hired at AC began applying once they obtained their commercial license. AC will keep a record of when you started applying, so all you will need to do is make a profile and begin applying to show interest. You will not generate a "PFO" since you won't get interviewed u...

I used to use DC H10 13.4 myself, combined with earplugs underneath. Be very careful with your ears on this airplane, especially on the 2. It WILL damage your long term hearing if you do not respect that. The metro 3 has much better insulation, but is still annoyingly loud. I have more time on the 2...
