67 pilots hired so far in 2023. That is an average of 22 per month. That will not keep up with attrition.
Of this # how many are hired on as DECs ?

Re: Expanding Q400 Fleet

Be interesting to see where Porter is sourcing the extra tails from....since deHavilland Canada is currently not manufacturing new Dash 8 400s at the moment.

Re: Aviation Document Booklet Renewal

How long are ADB renewals taking in 2023 ?

Curious to hear everyone's experiences who are in the process right now...and how far in advance (considering delays at TC) should one submit a renewal application to get ahead of the curve ?

Re: Negotiations

So what does Jazz look like as a downsized company 6,12 or even 18 months down the road in terms of fleet/routes/pilot staffing ?

Anyone care to crystal ball the future ??

Re: New hire bids

Employers don’t hate pilots. They need pilots. The planes cannot fly themselves (yet). What they hate is paying pilots what they are worth (market forces) and they hate negotiating with them unless all of the leverage is on their side of the table. 2023 is not the environment that managements prefe...

Ok once in a while but gets old real fast. The writing is in the wall as far as YYC is concerned. It will be attrited down t...
