Re: Odd call sign?

You can edit your callsign using ADS-B on most units I believe. This is most likely ome of those cases.

Skynorth BE20 ads

So what are these guys actually paying?

I recall seeing ads for the 200 a year ago saying that they started the captains at 72k.

Now they're not outright saying what they pay, but some of their captains have made $120k-$140k.

Just wondering if anyone really knows what the deal is?

Re: King Air at Gillam, MB

The ad probably has to do more with the pay and morale, than the accident.

Re: Northern Air Carriers Feeling the Pinch.

"Adapt or die" They are. Boeing has announced they will be testing self flying planes this summer. Thank God, the thought of putting my family on airplanes flown by the entitled Millennials I have seen over the past decade is terrifying. This is sarcasm right?
