In today's job market there is no need for connections for a first job. Just start cold calling entry level operators.

Re: Where is this so called shortage
There is a shortage, but here are still entry level positions. The good news is that the amount of time spent in those entry level positions will be much shorter for you than it was for previous generations.

Re: Captain Upgrade Times
Hi All, I've got 5000 TT with 1000 on the DHC-8-100. I've also got my ATPL and an instructional background. I'm wondering how long to upgrade to Capt at YYZ these days.

Hi All, I've got 5000 TT with 1000 on the DHC-8-100. I've also got my ATPL and an instructional background. I'm wondering how long to upgrade to Captain and what my pay would top out at (I've looked at the salary grids on this site, but I don't understand the whole "Cap" thing). Also, how long to ge...

Re: Articles?Studies About Trainig in Real AC vs Sim
I though that I read somewhere that industry was starting to do more training in the A/C as a result of Asiana/AF447. It looks like I was wrong.

Articles?Studies About Trainig in Real AC vs Sim
Hi All,
I'm looking for articles/studies about companies doing more training in real aircraft vs simulators after recent incidents such as the Asiana crash at SF. I'd be grateful if someone pointed me in the right direction.

Re: Do you readback VFR clearances?

Hi All,
