No idea. He said he's pausing them for those that didn't retaliate. We retaliated 'bigly'.

A US2 is $160 million. I think I'd rather have 40 AT802s than 1 US2.

Most airlines are way over managed in my experience. I remember working for one that had 7 aircraft and 1 manager.

Now that EIC has such a monopoly have they started gouging their Northerner customers yet?

Walk in and ask for your money. See how that goes.

Speedbrakes normally deploy automatically on touchdown as long as the handle is positioned correctly. The PNF ensures they auto deploy on touchdown and the reversers are working.

Do you just rotate in or do you actually work there? Pilots live like kings. They have maids, chefs, family compounds, chauffeurs. I'm not sure they're going to like living in someone's basement in Toronto.

I guess you've never spent time in Nigeria, Angola or India.

Actually I have. India every month or two. Even been to the rippers in Lagos. Why?

South Africans is a good one. They're all over Africa and likely looking for safer skies. What about Australians?

I see. Is there anyone from India here that can comment if there is a glut of pilots there looking to gain experience overseas?

Will hiring foreigners even work? From which country will they come exactly? I can't really think of any where pilots have it worse.

What about the treats from within? Subtle? Implied? But still threats. Which threats are you referring to specifically? Everything I read seemed completely made up and childlike. Was referencing public comments (including Q&A or roadshow) from ALPA reps and/or counsel regarding the potential conseq...

There's a silent majority.

It was any easy no for me. Like, it's not even close. I have no fear of any backroom threats from the labour minister. I actually want them to force us back to work publicly. Not in the shadows, so nobody can see what they are doing to us.

Don't worry if this TA doesn't pass. They have to increase starting salaries to attract people like you.

I'll just keep replacing MECs as long as I have to.

I stand by my earlier statement of my expectation that the ACAMEC will get a starting salary of 75-85 per year. I also believe that they will not actually strike and will call off a strike notice by 10:30PM on the eve of the strike. Why do you feel it likely a pilot at Air Canada will earn less tha...

They haven't showed up for me since I last travelled in April. I just assumed the company was trying to make employee travel more difficult for us.

That's good to know. I always thought Prist was antimicrobial.

Wx /mechanical issues aside. Will be landing in pat bay. Sunday. Yyj. So if you need to see her one last time aloft. DONT miss it.

Do you know anything more about the time and exact location?

A lot of operators will tell the fueller no additive as a standing order despite their aircraft POH requiring it. Next thing you know their fuel filter is full of ice, or in this case I guess bacteria.

I didn't see this one coming, but I should have. Those are real men and real women. Not selfish narcissists like us. I have so much respect for them right now. Let us know how to support you.

Careful. I had a manager who was my best friend until rumors started to fly about unionization. Suddenly every conversation revolved about how awful it is to work for a unionized company.

I have no doubt Porter will join ALPA but maybe keep it to yourself until they do.
