YVR Commuters

Wondering if there's anyone who commutes from YYZ/YUL to YVR. I'd love to hear how you make it work, what the schedules are like for more junior guys, etc. Are you able to bid pairings that begin and end with deadheads to YVR? DM me if you'd like.

Thanks!

Canadian Pilots in the USA

Well it seems that the predictions of American carriers hiring Canadian Pilots is starting to happen. Horizon had a few Canadians in its latest groundschool. Should Avcanada open a forum section labeled “US Carriers”?
Rumor has it JetBlue is planning the same thing. Can anyone elaborate?

Re: Training

All varies depending on sim availability, etc. For me the whole process was one day shy of 8 weeks. They flew me home (yvr) for every day off, no questions asked. You get your training schedule (most of it at least) on day 3 of groundschool and then you can write a list of days & approximate times y...

From which college if you don't mind me asking? I'm wondering if they're now prioritizing diplomas from certain flight colleges?

Re: Jazz Reqiurements?

So that covers 2017, anyone with an educated guess as to how does the hiring situation look further out in 2018 and beyond at Jazz ? I ran into the guy who did my jazz interview in 2016 on the crew bus the other day. He says they've been running off their feet with interviews and have been told to ...

Re: The Air Canada OTS thread

beaver1986,

These people getting interviews with less than 2 years, are they from Sky Reg as well? As far as I'm aware Sky is the only express carrier with the min 2 year requirement.

Re: Dash classic Bid

Black_Tusk is exactly right. However you can always have your standing bid to transfer to another aircraft type and it's company's discretion to waive the 48 month freeze. They've been waiving it a lot lately. Also most people are getting upgraded now within 2 years so there's lots of people changin...

Re: Sim Evaluation

No in YYC it's on Mount Royal's Alsim which doesn't even simulate any specific aircraft. Looks almost like a G1000 setup with torque read out in %. It's just a generic turbine aircraft it seems. Very straightforward.

Re: Application to first contact?

Approximately 6 weeks. I know guys that have been contacted anywhere between 4-10 weeks after applying. For those guys I know it was the lower time guys that took longer to be contacted.
(I applied with 4000+ TT, 1500 Multi Turbine PIC)

Re: Sim Evaluation

Does anyone have any info regarding recent sim evals in YYZ? I've been told it'll be at Seneca College in Peterborough on the King Air 200 sim. Anyone have any recent experience with this?

CRJ Schedules

Hi guys & gals, For those of you driving the CRJs at Jazz I'm curious as to what kind of schedules you normally get? How many days on rostered per month, what a typical kind of month looks like.. How commutable is the RJ schedule in general to say YVR if based elsewhere? Can you bid YVR overnights i...
