Re: Trying to get to Aklavik/Freddie Carmichael
I could fly Edmonton to Zubko and fly to Aklavik from there with those airlines, sounds like a terribly forced adventure though :p Most of the smaller commercial operations the pilots can’t just sell you a seat these days, it’s an adventurous idea and all but times have changed drastically and it’s...

Re: ATR 72-500 Captain - SIGNING BONUS INCLUDED
$20,000 bonus, paid out over a 2 year term, but only if you cut and run with a current PPC…. The bonus won’t even cover the training bond you’d be running from lol

Re: Education assessed by TC but can’t find apprenticeship
It’s not an odd situation, more common than you might realize. Couple things for feedback, Do with them what you will; - TC approving you to write the exams doesn’t auto entitle you to a license on completion. Even less so if your experience is all on military aircraft. You need to better understand...

You wouldn’t want an AME to make their tech records entry in the wrong aircraft’s journey logbook, similarly, this is the wrong forum for your job ad. You might want to move it to the job ads section where it’s supposed to be

CBC coverage- Pilot’s frustrated ATC rant
Not a good look for a professional pilot to be ranting about another aviation profession like this. Frustrations and emotions run high but this isn’t a good response, particularly the rumour fuelled accusations.

Good afternoon. No, this isn’t a floatplane with pontoons—it’s an amphibious aircraft, and this is already happening; we already fly with that load. However, we still don’t have a convenient ramp for the jet ski after a water landing or for lowering the quad bike after docking at the shore. I would...

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.
