so why not apply to Westjet? They are always looking. Apprentices start right now just under $28/hour and that goes up a buck in July. I’ve applied to WestJet many times and always get automatically disqualified because I do not have a M2 license . Very difficult to land an apprenticeship position ...

I think almost everyone uses digital manuals by subscription now. We don’t have paper copies or cd’s for this stuff anymore.

Thank you for your responses. I have just decided to go with an instructors rating this summer. I know multi IFR time is more valuable but I know people on ramp for the next 2 years with no end in site. I can log hours flying a 172, not loading bags. I think it's just what I will enjoy more. Career...

That’s shady/sketchy if they are blindly asking you fit find your own training for material that’s mandatory training in the company COM. If you’re expected to get third party training, the company should tell you exactly what course and where otherwise they can’t demonstrate any form of diligence t...

Complicated situation. CAR 571.11 applies, specifically (4) Except as provided in subsections (5) and (7), no person shall sign a maintenance release in respect of maintenance performed on a transport category aeroplane or a turbine-powered helicopter, unless the person (a) has successfully complete...

I just got done at the end of November with about 205 FT and 75 Sim hours, SARON and SAMRA written and passed. As well as MCC done. So far I have applied to about 29 places and have only received one response saying that I have been shortlisted but am not their first choice. Any suggestions on any ...

This would be more appropriate to be posted in the job ads section, there’s instructions for that pinned to the top of the forum page here

If your career goal is airline go apply there now, they’d probably take you as a copilot. Or try with a 703/704 operator, depending what your 1800 hrs consists of there might be an option there to move towards a multi PIC role, though might be a multi SIC job to start if you have basically no multi ...

Hey 9/16, I'm majoring in environmental studies. I'm not looking for a "pilot" co-op per se as I don't have my CPL, but student co-op opportunites in the aviation industry, as I have not seen much being offered here in Canada - most are full time only and require years of experience. I'm not lookin...

You haven’t given near enough information about your course of study to point you towards possible job options. What are you actually looking for? Dispatching? Pilot? Maintenance? Accounting? “Year three of a co-op degree specializing in aviation” means very little. Internship typically means “work ...

You might get better results for your book promotion in the general comments forum, the forum you have it listed in is specific to accidents.

Before you graduate, the school will give you a list of basic tools that you need to buy. In case you don't have one, this is what the school gave me. https://i.postimg.cc/43qKHJg2/20240516-003726.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/FH1sy2GM/20240516-003930.jpg You have to lubricate the zerk/grease fittings, ...

So you formed a company and contracted out as an apprentice/unlicensed technician? Interesting way to do it, any challenges getting the required 70% of applicable logbook tasks? I’d assume if you wrote a letter and backed it up with evidence of those contracts along with your logbook you'd be able t...

I have a question. Are fuel gauges considered engine instruments? Or are engine instruments things like oil pressure, oil temp, torque, ITT, and Ng? Fuel quantity gauges, no, not engine instruments. Fuel Flow gauges, yes, engine instruments. In terms of technical logs for your aircraft per CAR 605....

Read the rest of the ad, it also appears to be an internal posting: “The following full time position is open for qualified employees of Transwest Air, Snowbird Aviation Services and West Wind Aviation to apply for in our La Ronge Location“ When you go to the and on their hiring page, it also says t...

It's more on the line of "what will the inspector accept"? If I see others then I know what they are expecting as they won't give me any feedback on what is acceptable and what is not. If you haven’t got it, make sure you have the Transport Pub TP 4711 Air Operator Certification Manual. That’s what...

Are you asking for someone else’s training material because you don’t believe the training is relevant or important? That’s not a good look for an Air Operator and public safety. Your training exams should be based on your training material not someone else’s. Your COM, your SOP’s, your fleet. Build...

It’s illegal to discriminate based on age, Canadian Human Rights Act. If there’s a bonafide and legit reason then there are exceptions.

I know many 18-19 year old CPL holders that have been hired to fly.

I guess that just proves that my "Threads" on this forum organizing accidents by type(such as Long Landing Thread) can be useful to anyone looking for accidents with a common trait(someone claimed it was ruining the board).

Quick question and direction, finished all my IPC training and next is the “flight test”. Just got hired by an operator flying twins and they’re going to be training me for the PPC on their aircraft (12.500 and under). Should I spend the hundreds on getting the IPC at the school where I finished th...

Sounds like this might be your first commercial job, good time to start getting more familiar with the regs and standards that apply to your chosen career, this could be a good exercise for that. You’ll need that skill at some point in your future. Assuming this is a 703 air operator, 723.98 holds t...

Call your PMI and pitch it at them, but do your math better first and have a far better plan than just to look at the engine for corrosion before buying it. Also make sure you have a good handle on your proposed maintenance schedule for this aircraft, and a plan for what to do when you get it online...
