Spaces is a great resource. Now if we could just get them to issue atis on the hour like the US does, instead of 6...7...8...or 9 minutes after the hour.

I think I've asked this, apologies if so, but how many AR pilots does WS have ATM?

Your response to my post indicates to me that you think very differently or you need to read more carefully. You are over-complicating things to further your rhetoric. Or you're the one making a simple reduction in the size of your workforce seem like something other than what it is. It's a reducti...

The only part that seems weird is instead of junior Captains having to move bases to keep their seat, they're now being allowed to downgrade in their own base but retain Captain pay, and status (title and keep building Captain pay seniority I think). It means the entire burden of the reduction bid ...

I'm pretty sure I've seen that particular rumour here on avcanada. Seems like a bad idea to be airing it in public when there isn't any actual evidence. Better to stick to the facts: this has been an issue since long before covid, and then poor decisions during covid just made it infinitely worse. ...

99 times out of 100, the claims were made by a bitter ATC trainee who didn't qualify.

How about 30 something trainees in a row who didn't qualify, all fired by the same 2 guys?

It's corruption pure and simple. The people in the yvr acc are corrupt, they are gaming the system to their own benefit, and they don't care how many airlines they rip off to do it, they don't care how many passengers they inconvenience, they don't even care how many career paths they derail. They m...

It’s clear most on here are supporting the unions actions and likely actual members who are not biased at all 😇 the reality is we have far too many problems with the current MEC. The company needs to be held accountable, of course, and certain aspects have been well managed such as fatigue but we a...

We have a Hamilton base?

I'm in.

Probably shows how much of a losing venture Swoop was.

Lots of upside to the US, Korean, and French investment for WS though. I think it'll be a real positive, especially if they move their focus to more than the 4th largest market in Canada at some point.

Didn’t some metal get bent into YKF last year…

No, but some grass got slightly disturbed.

How much did Onex buy WJ for? Cause they sold 25% for 550 million. That's a 2.2 billion valuation. Onex paid about 3.5 billion and assumed debt which put the total transaction value around 5 billion at the time of purchase. There is a bit of a mix between USD and CAD. The valuation is 2.2b USD or 3...

Does flair ever hire 1000 hour instructors for example? What are the chances someone with that experience gets any consideration? Thanks! We have hired several pilots with around 1000 TT, however we prefer at least some of that experience to be operational 703/704 time. It is unlikely that a candid...

Do you ever read PDW's words and think "ok those are all English words, why don't they make any sense to my brain?" Qu'est-ce que le fuk?

I'd live maybe in Rzeszow, Szczecin or Gdansk.

Oh that's a good one. Poland feels like one of the last great European places.

Unless France decides not to let them have nukes and Putin bring the special military operations road show there next. I'll stick with Canada thanks.

Seeing that FB is still at the helm of Skycare, I feel like, I wouldn't pee on that man if he were on fire.

There is no such airline as Sunwing, this is WestJet through and through. Did WJ not have the capability to assist with the latest SW disaster in order to get pax where they wanted to go? From what I hear, the pilots are WestJet, with WJ SOPs, on WJ's OC, and WJ's dispatch. I believe Sunwing Vacati...

I wouldn't say we hold no cards. We have a pair of 2's. We have virtually all of the resources, and all we need to do is put some petty provincial bullshit aside and develop them, and we can sell to everyone else in the world. If the US is still the most profitable customer, even with tariffs, then...

Noooo, not the cafe Franklin!

I would definitely start reaching out to chief flying instructors now, you can send a resume with an estimated completion date. Just remember weather, maintenance, and a few other factors outside of your control can delay things.

Did they finish fixing YYC from the hail storm in August? I don't know that the B gates are open again after the roof caving in, but that shouldn't affect traffic much, there's still lots of open gates. It does seem like Navcanada is short staffed lately, we are frequently only landing one runway, ...

F8 was the last airline to stop the free reciprocal JS, nobody here knows why we did, it just happened one day. And WS was the first and only airline that I know of to weaponize JS travel. We have a mess of a JS program in this country and need to take the power back.
