Utilize any contacts you might have at operators that hire low time people. Other students or instructors you met along the way, mentors if you have any. Any one with current or past experience with these types of operations, this will be your biggest help as far as how/when/where to apply and how t...

So if you're an FO with a (now restricted ATPL), an upgrade ride on a two crew machine will give you the unrestricted ATPL? I don't understand why this is a problem? Or how it relates to immigrant pilots? I don't see why you wouldn't be able to have a restricted ATPL and still be hired for a 704 cap...

Total: 185k T4s between two seasonal jobs in the bush + 16k per diems + 3500 in tips. No RRSP match.

228 days away from home including travel and training.

Been at it for 9 years.

Going into it with a first-year apprentice mindset is a great start already! You aren't going to know anything at the beginning, so pay attention and try to absorb as much as you can. It's annoying to have to teach/tell someone things multiple times. But if you don't know, definitely ask. People usu...

Flight Instructing or skydiving.

There are lots of other jobs out there, but you'll have to make some sacrifices to take advantage of them.
The fewer limitations you have, the more options you'll have.

Who are you to say what people deserve to earn? Or whats 'fair'?

Just like pilots and AMEs, planes don't fly without flight attendants. We should all be cheering for them to get as good a rate as they can, rising tides or whatever.

I bought a new truck with a factory-installed lift recently. Is Carney going to take it away from me???

Same as above , might as well put it out for all positions I don't work there anymore but it depends on what you bring to the table and can negotiate, the number of days you work, and whether you go to Antarctica or not. I'd guess somewhere between 90k and 150k. 1900 on the lower side and DC3 on th...

Any suggestions for those in the useless 25nm night xc portion of training? Pay up to tick the box and make TC happy Sorry, I meant any ways I can do things different to get more out of training? When you're doing your "build time" to get to 200hrs, make sure to get 25hrs of night XC PIC. Find a ni...

You'll need some taildragger time if you only have 703 King Air experience.

Lots of inaccurate information posted here. The Chief Pilot did not leave for greener pastures and its not a 24/7 on call deal. There will be two pilots assigned to the plane. 604 flights will be flown either single pilot or two crew depending on schedule and all 704 flights will be two crew only. ...

Sorry I’m not understanding your reply. Upgrade requirements should be met after a period of time for all FO’s, time on type I assume be the requirement most would only need. My reply was snarky in nature, you really come across as someone with little to zero industry knowledge, which is why you ar...

I'm one of the many who are qualified but will not be applying. Won't even consider it until bidding/scheduling and various other issues are fixed.

Advancement to the Left Seat has never been quicker, 2 years (or so) to a 220 Captaincy in YZ. You have options to get off flat pay, heaven forbid you may have to work for it, or worse yet relocate. Looks to me like that is a $260K / year posting. When during the interview were you promised that co...

You’re joking right? Rolex Singh? Sellout Singh? The only rights he cares about are his own. What are you talking about? I haven't seen anything indicating that Singh is/has/will support this. On Thursday, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh accused the federal government of undermining workers. "The Liberals...

They certainly are.

Excellent work and fantastic unity! I'm cheering from the sidelines.

Look man I get it, maybe that's over the line. But at some point we need to draw a line - or we end up making the same mistakes. I don't think it's unreasonable to say the WJ contract is junk and they settled big time . There needs to be acknowledgement and acceptance of that. Making these distinct...

If you have significant time on twin otters or dc3 on skis and have a Canadian licence, it may be possible to do a contract with Borek or Enterprise. I believe BAS requires an EASA licence.

Could also join the New York Air National Guard to get on the “skier” hercs out of McMurdo.

Mine needed two years of t4 plus a statement from my employer of what my salary is.

She was one of the most impressive humans I've had the pleasure of spending time with, what a horrible loss.

Also I saw on PCC that it says "Intermediate Airline Transport Rating". That's hilarious. So then is TC wrong or PCC? Like what the hell is happening in aviation?!!! It's Individual Aircraft Type Rating I get the IATRA is mostly used for 2 crew and that it is after your MIFR and before your As but ...

Ask TC? Ok. https://publications.gc.ca/collections/collection_2021/tc/T22-242-2019-eng.pdf TC's authorized person manual. See page 79-82 for the requirements to sign off multicrew typeratings and high performance type ratings. The results may surprise you... Lol. Well I did speak with a current TC ...

I'm not supporting the MNRF posted rate of $1,192.16 - $1,442.83 per week, and I'm not trying to argue, but I (and I assume others) would like to know what the minimum acceptable wage should be? I'm not familiar with float flying so I don't have any reference. It's easy to complain about wages as w...

Hour requirements are usually due to the insurance/contract requirements.
