The author of the letter you just posted requested in another thread for it not to be posted here. Maybe delete this to respect their wishes.

You realize that 30% of shit is still shit right? And nobody in year 1 or 2 is making 90-100k... Have you even looked at the FO pay scales? The fact that you're delusional enough to believe this: "Most Boomers retired early in the pandemic to try and save junior pilots from furlough." ...also compl...

ok nice you did the first 12 years. Now do the next 10 years at step 12.

It's not just year 1. They spend a year at year 1 a year at year 2, year 3 etc. all of the lower scales were sacrificed in favour of the top end. Again, todays money is worth more than tomorrows. How hard is this concept to understand. Because almost every pilot will be spending 10-25 years at step...

Perhaps this is just a big misunderstanding. When AC told the media they want their pilots to be the best paid pilots in Canada they meant "other than new pilots, and expect for Flair, Morningstar and Corporate gigs and probably soon to be Porter". Sorry about the confusion. If this does get voted ...

“When it is in force, we want our pilots to remain the best-paid commercial pilots in Canada by far, ” Air Canada spokesperson Peter Fitzpatrick by email. “We are open to any solution to reach a reasonable settlement, including arbitration.” https://financialpost.com/transportation/airlines/air-can...

I'm sad to hear of this, and having flown the 200 a lot I feel it's natural to have questions. To the Tindi family I'm sorry for your loss. The flight was CYZF to CEM3, 87 nm. That's a pretty short leg to do an IFR departure and set up for an RNAV GPS IAP, assuming that's what they did. That's what...

If it were a medevac flight I would suspect there would have been a flight nurse with them.

I wouldn't worry so much about the polygraph when you have the spinal tap to worry about.

lol k I think i've heard about this, btw whats an ACMI?

You dug up a thread that's over 11 years old to post that picture?

Can't find the direct link to youtube or whatever but there it is.

Pretty straightforward interview. It’s about an hour long with HR and one of the chief pilots asking typical HR questions like why you want to work at Canadian North and name a time you made a mistake, strengths and weaknesses etc. I think if you pass that then they’ll ask you to do a sim eval or t...

Where are they flying overseas these days ? To the best of my knowledge: RJ bases: Al-Fashir, Sudan Entebbe, Uganda Kinshasa, DRC Umea and somewhere else in Sweden Aruba Dash-8 bases: Bukavu and Goma, DRC Bamako, Mali Niamey, Niger Dash has some domestic work available too. This is a fairly current...

Payscale has increased and the training bond has been discontinued.

Very different tactic.

This has been discontinued.

how about this for a title, "Stephen J. Harper International? Petition launched to rename Calgary airport". Holy @#$! stop being such a sensationalist dickhead with these clickbait titles.

Just log all the air time as IFR if you need it. Who really gives a shit? Either you've been flying IFR for a while or you haven't. Timing how long you've been in cloud or without reference to a horizon is probably the most correct way in TC's eyes, but I think it's generally pretty well accepted ve...

Advisory vis for YFB ILS is RVR 4000/3/4 sm

Alright I think I answered my own question (4) No person shall continue a CAT I precision approach to a runway with centreline lighting or a CAT I precision approach in an aeroplane equipped with a HUD unless (a) the air operator is authorized to do so in its air operator certificate; (b) in the cas...

north of 60 only means ground visibility figures do not impose an approach ban. I think if RVR is reported, regardless where geographically, it will impose a ban.

I was hoping someone could clarify the approach ban for the ILS to runway 34 in Iqaluit. Advisory visibility is RVR 4000 or 3/4 sm. Now if a 705 operator has the Ops Spec 503 that allows use of the 50% approach ban minima, couldn't the pilots shoot the approach down to 2600 RVR? I recently heard sev...
