Re: Flair Pilots

My absolute #1 vote for the dumbest post ever. Thanks, that’s what I was going for, actually I realized it would be received this way because pilots are stubbornly stuck in the old way and refuse to change! Therefore, nothing will ever change. In the south they are fighting over pilots and here we ...

Re: Corporate Pilot Pay?

Nothing short of 80k annually at least or the equivalent. Considering that you run the whole show and that you fly single-pilot, I wouldn't even look at any offer below that. The amount of hours flown is usually irrelevant in my opinion for pay purposes when you are flying corporate. You are paid to...

Re: Collège iFly à Québec CYQB - Recommandation et avis

Je serais intéressé de savoir combien de finissants (ou plus des instructeurs) ont-ils réellement engagés (pré-COVID disons) chez Chrono Aviation? Ils ont l'air à utiliser cela comme un argument de vente qui je dois l'avouer, est quand même solide!

Re: Air Canada and Transat announce Updated Purchase Price at $5 per share

Wow. Really good CRM over here, can't wait to fly with you guys as well. As always, some people you will get along, some you won't, some people you will agree with what they are saying, some you won't, but at least everyone deserve a minimum of respect. I get that this potential seniority list merge...

Re: ATPL Application

No. I asked them the question before applying in September and they said it is not required.

And indeed, I got approved without my hours certified by my Chief Pilot.

Re: Hiring Outlook

What about the hiring outlook for 2017? I've noticed that the closing date for their last pilot posting on their website was Dec 31st 2016 and they haven't put a new posting yet. Does that mean they are done hiring for now or that they are slowing the hiring significantly (considering that they have...

Re: PC12 or King Air 90?

As we see more and more PC12 with 703 operators and less King Airs nowadays, do you think operators like Jazz, Porter, Encore, consider that time on a PC12 has the same value than time on a King Air even if it is single vs multi time? Or is time on a multi-turbine better and will always be better th...

There are lots of opportunities for entry level ish FO jobs right now so if the poor desperate pilot is stupid enough to accept this job I think he only has himself to blame.

Re: Is anyone hiring these days?

We all know that spring and the beginning of summer is the best time to find a job.

However, is there any charter company (King Airs, Navajos, etc.) you know that is sometimes hiring during winter looking for pilots with 1000 hours?

I have no vacation time left and I have already told my employer that I have been called by another company for a job.

Difficult decision ahead

Just wondering everyone's opinion. Stay working at a small company you've been with for one year, flying captain on a small piston and flying a turbine aircraft once a week with no option to upgrade captain on it before a few years or go to a well established 703/704 operator with a good reputation,...
