Re: Wear your goddamn lanyard!

We are running at 50% OTP and literally have disabled people dragging themselves off airplanes! A national embarrassment!! Yet the executives are more concerned about what lanyards the pilots wear! It should be apparent to all that they have lost control and are in panic mode. Reaching a deal with t...

Re: Mini base LEC recall?

It's worth noting that he's still off on full flight release. He was officially out on Aug 10, and other than a recurrent sim, he's yet to return to the line. In the mean time the interim reps have struggled to secure any sort of flight release to conduct their duties. Displacements have to go throu...

Btw, he wasn't doing VO, just keepimg his currency. But let's not get the facts get in the way of personal bashing. Keeping his currency this time. What about the other 85+ hours of VO he's done? All those CUN turns? Funny how he stopped picking up all the flying once the recall petition started go...

Re: Does the Former MEC Chair smoke crack?

MM is a caricature of his generation. The obstinate, self-serving boomer pilot. Looking to make up for past injustices (real or perceived) at the expense of everyone else. Zero concern for anyone junior to them or the profession as a whole. With fading recollections or deliberate "miss remembering" ...

Never underestimate the stupidity of Air Canada pilots or their capacity to whore themselves out at the expense of everyone else!

Is this a website for airlines or for PILOTS? FOR TOO LONG companies have been hiding behind cute little job ads that DO NOT LIST THEIR PAY! Last time I checked there's a growing labor shortage with a lot less ATPL's flying around! OUR LICENCES ARE IN DEMAND. This website should reflect that demand ...

Re: SWOOP - A New Hires Future

I for one am quite surprised the arbitrator leaned so far in the company's direction. I didn't think it would all be roses but seriously, AIRPORT RESERVE? lol what a joke!

Reefer madness isn't going to go away overnight. TC has a hard enough time keeping the lights on at their office, never mind fulfilling their mandate (fatigue?).

It's a goddamn mess alright. Company takes the most efficient pilot group in North America and turns against them.

Re: WestJet pilots to fly Swoop aircraft

Only losers hang on that tight to their grievances. But there's a surprising number of the type wandering around Canadian ...

Re: WestJet pilots to fly Swoop aircraft

So no 737 flown scheds were taken over by the Q400 ? 737 scheds were most certainly usurped by Encore. Passengers expect more frequency which the Q400 is great at providing. Once the '37's were relieved of the "milk runs" they were free to be placed on other more profitable routes. You will never m...
