FAA AD's apply to Canadian operated US built aircraft. Westjet do have some aircrfat with these type of center boost pumps.

Well I guess there are not too many people who are fond of Canjet.It seems unfortunate I had heard good things froma few people.
WHo is there top management, DOM, Prod manager ect.. Are they all bad.
Thanks again.

I thought there were 2 737NG's coming? Does that do anything for the morale? Are people upbeat about the future or is it going nowhere fast?
What exactly happend in Montreal with Exeltech (The MRO?).
Thanks again for the insight.
Does not sound too good.

Thanks for any info.

That will be a "D" check. Ex- Ram birds. There is another one coming as well.

I have never seen MEL relief for NW steering and I really doubt there would be. It would be very dangerous and really risky. Virgin is started to ahve there AC towed to the runway in the UK in an effort to conserve fuel. They have been pushing all carriers to follow suit. Maybe this was test at a sm...

The tax rate for corp or Inc is hire. As a one person contrcator using your home as the office you are much better going registered. It cost about 25 bucks to register and 1k and up for a corp or Inc.

What he said but don't bother with the Snap-on stuff. Maybe just the screwdriver. The pressure to buy Snap on to fit in or show eagerness is misplaced. You can find excellent tolls for 1/4 the price in Craftsman USA and even C-tire. With today's manufacturing processes most quality brands have excel...

Brice check your PM's.

The newer buses do not have mechnical reversion. They do have a RAT or ADG which will supply a small amount of hydrau.ic pressure. But then again they aslo have 3 hydraulic ystems, Blue,green and yellow. Loss of all hydraulics in a 320/330 or 340 is much more serious than on the 737NG's.

A good license sheet metal guy is always in demand. I know right now in the major cities there is a shortage. There is work for sheetmetal guy's in many areas. Mods, repairs. A lot "C" check work, in the future "S" guy's will be doing a lot more composte work as well. 787 case in point. I think it's...

Go ahead.

This is aline from an agency. If you work directly for the agency you sually make less so they can make more. If you go to the place that needs the staff you wil get more. A licensed M2 enginer on typ betwen $30-$45.licensed not endorsed $25 and up all depending on experience and the place. Right no...

Yes fair enough. I almost missed your reply but then the emoticon drew me in.

Please read my post 3 posts ago. I alreday posted this info with the AD.

This not to start a row, but TC does check into A and P's background a lot do to the fact atht the A and P is a very easily attainable license and as you may know there have been frauds and bribes to get the A and P. The big scandal of a few years ago. Just remeber if you dio get your Canadian AME l...

There are options for either GE or RR engines. There is an emergency AD out for the GE engines. Apparently there have been power rollbacks on takeoff when using reduced take-off thrust or generally setting the N1 and temp using the computer. The FAA has ordered that all 777 with GE engines do takeof...

Could you and Azure at least move this thread somewhere else. There's nothing like having someone from the outside looking in guess and post info we all know and have all been trained on. We get it. You love de-icing, you love to talk about it and speculate about it and share what knowledge you thin...

Also the 600 is almost useless on longhaul trips because of the tiny baggage area, normally they will almost bulk out with 100 people onboard. Is this another area of your expertise? You seem so well informed in so many areas. Like you say, it's useless. What would a bunch actual pilots, execs and ...

You are ridiculous. I really hope you don't work for WJ. This was not constructive in any way except that we now know not to take you seriously.

Question, why can any of you tell me do some pilots in this industry, not naming airlines feel that they know better when it comes to wing contamination. [/b The title of your thread makes your above statement pointless and unnneeded. That being said we should probably all fall into line with your ...

ERJ145's for the domestic Toronto East stuff, and some EMB195's for the southern routings. 54% break even loads, I don't know why they're leasing a 737-500 for the same cost, and a much higher operational cost. The 54% number is a manufacturer's best case scenario. It is impossible to get such sure...

Try Wright international, they use a lot of contractors. I think AvMax does as well.

Yes I was an ICC'er. I can say it was fun but I've never seen worse cases for poor business planning and the pure waste of money. Nevermind the insane perks some employees were privy to. It was fun but it was a time bomb. I would never go back to work for them unless it was a retirement gig and I di...

I'm hoping that's sarcasm. Nice people don't translate into good businessmen.Working for someone and getting paid for it are 2 diffrent things.
Are you an ex -ICC guy?
