Re: Pal airlines

Jeebus, well that’ll take the heat off the Jazz pilots for a bit, that being said, this is more like GGN 2.0 based on those pay scales and conditions. Lol have you seen the Jazz pay scales? $84.00/hr and MMG that could change compared to $92/hr. Show me the EMB captain pay scales and compare them t...

Re: Sky regional 2.0

As a Jazz employee what do you do? Flow through has become a meme, your contract length is embarrassing (no strike or lockout action until 2035), pay is lowest in the industry, now you're losing your flying because of a "bridging clause". Could one of the legal types on here (JBI? Bede?) explain, i...

Re: Sky regional 2.0

Sky Regional 2.0 is comical. Sky Regional was brought on to AC express because it was an non-unionized airline. AC wanted to leverage them in negotiating tactics with at the time one of the better CAs in the industry (Jazz). Jazz was one of the only unionized express carriers in a sea of them (GGN, ...

Re: Best place for Multi/IFR that is NOT Cornwall??

I see no reason not to do a CDA approach, even with an engine out. I would hold off on flaps until established final after completing the circling maneuver. The reason being is that you want to be certain that you will be able to level off at minimums, especially if you are circling. exactly, circl...

Re: Best place for Multi/IFR that is NOT Cornwall??

I am curious on how they teach a RNAV approach especially LNAV. Off course with LPV/WAAS or ILS, you have the glide slope and an auto-pilot, so no worry there. See my attached file for RNAV RWY 10 for example. I heard instructors there wanted students to descent from whatever the top of descent (TO...

Re: Best place for Multi/IFR that is NOT Cornwall??

Cornwall teaches to the test, you will learn how to pass the ride, (with their in house examiner), but not much more. They are a cheap way to get the sticker for your Aviation Document Booklet, but not much else. The quality of your training is going to depend more on the instructor than it will on...

Re: Seeking Captains to fly in Asia

One of my acquaintances does this, makes 30k a pilot recruiting around the world, depending on the region.

Kind of a pyramid scheme, they work around the company recruitment and act as your agent instead of you contacting the company direct.

We have to define suitable accommodation so that companies can't make us sleep in a shed, detailing proper fatigue management isn't unreasonable.

And you'll release the aircraft back to service after you "buff that out"? I expect that Air Canada will assure a proper proper repair.

Re: Another ATAC effort.... aka sidestep.

Its just the typical action=reaction system that happens when things are out of control. Operators, on the flip side are saying that many young 20s pilots would just bail from the KingAir or 1900 to drive 320 or 737 no matter how much you pay them. How to protect that investment in training these d...
