Most convenient CPAP machine for pilots?
I recently got diagnosed with moderate sleep apnea. Currently looking for the most convenient CPAP machine out there for pilots? I am currently doing rotation consisting of 2 weeks on/2 weeks off. Preferably something easy to pack. I heard about the resmed air mini but people are saying it won't tra...

Retention of Med CAT 1 (Sleep Apnea)
To make it short and sweet, I believe that I have some sort of sleep apnea. I've noticed the usual symptoms of sleep apnea affecting me way more nowadays. I recently did a sleep study test and am awaiting for the results. At the same time, I requested a leave of absence for medical reasons since I d...

Re: Pilot in waiting jobs situation
I am also currently in a PIW position on of the biggest northern carrier in Quebec and the waiting time here is around between 12-24 months minimum. I feel like it's a very long time to wait even after the end of the pandemic, but I do not have a choice at the moment. Still applying to entry level p...

Re: IATRA notes
Thank you, It's very much appreciated. Question, what is the difference between IATRA and SARON/SAMRA exams? Can you get hired as an FO with either set? IATRA gives you the opportunity to get hired as a FO for an aicraft requiring minimum 2 crews on board meanwhile you need your SARON/SAMRA exams w...

Jazz Pilot Pathway Program still on hold?
Was wondering what is happening with the jazz pathway program. Anyone got any news lately from them? I've seen them post a while back ago job ads for 2020 Grad,2021 Grad, 2022 Grad and there's even 2023 Grad on their website. Any chances folks that graduated in the middle of the pandemic have a chan...

Re: Advise on first flying job at 500 hours?
I am pretty much in the same boat as you. Although, I have around 260 TT. When people are saying there is a ''pilot shortage'' , they're forgetting the word ''experienced''. Currently in Canada, there is shit ton of low hours pilots like myself and others. I've tried the ramp jobs and I've literally...

Re: Group 3 to group1??
I currently hold a Group 3 instrument rating. I’ve never flown multi before. How do I upgrade from a Gr 3 to a Gr 1 IFR. I’m planning to start my multi in a couple of weeks. Is it possible to get both multi & Gr. 1 IFR in one checkride? No it is not possible to get multi and IR Group1 in 1 check ri...

Re: Leading Edge placed in interim receivership
All small businesses in Canada are the worst sort of blood sucking scumbags. Every single one. Government should provide six figure jobs to everyone. Private business should be banned. Got it. I’m done here. Why the snowflake act? No one said anything disparaging business owners in general or you i...

The company is brankrupt. All of their employees lost their job and I was one of them. Landed a job with them in mid march when they advertise in february that they were looking for survey pilots.

Advertising Aircraft rides. Legal or not?
I'm a CPL holder who's trying to gain some flight hours from left and right until I can find a job in aviation. My questions is: Is it legal that I can bring passengers and charged them only for the fuel and rental of the plane without taking any profits?

I'm continuously sending my resume literally to every possible option I see ,but I get no re...

Is becoming a flight instructor worth during this pandemic?
I've always asked that question myself but it's very difficult to see the future these days. If possible, I would like to have some opinions from my fellow aviators. In summary, I've finished my flight training last summer. Since then, I always question myself if going to a flight school and getting...
