July 6th 2021 Jazz 8737 Magdalen Islands to Montreal diversion
Anyone know what's up? Right after takeoff they turned around and went back to Magdalen.

Re: ‘Reckless’ Canadian pilots commit major quarantine breach in Darwin
Who are they? Is their identity a secret? It's time to start publicly naming and shaming quarantine breachers. Incredible narcissism.

Re: Calin is retiring February 2021
The good news is if the regulators start making big demands the new guy is more likely to just walk away from the deal. This isn't his baby.

Re: Air Canada and Transat announce Updated Purchase Price at $5 per share
It probably depends on the type of LOA. For a parental LOA they still might accure service.

Re: COVID MOA 2
I ain't clicking that link. Air Canada is a publicly traded company and leaking meetings about negotiations between the company and labor unions could draw the attention of Securities regulators on yourself, this website, and anyone viewing it.

Re: Relief Pilots
I'm kind of glad they're gone. A lot of the RP's I talked to had significant responsibilities outside of work and told me that's why they bid RP. Which makes you kind of wonder if they're just along for the ride more or less.

Unbelievable that they had the results of a very recent member survey saying flat pay was the biggest issue, and then they agreed to make it even worse.Jean-Pierre wrote: ↑Sat Jul 25, 2020 2:01 pm I think the issue is flat pay pilot were already taking a hit for the good of the group.

So you could retire at 60 but you want more pension. Unicorns are real they're just fat, grey, and called rhinos.

Re: 220 Pilots, what are you thoughts so far??
Aviation authorities seem to lack the resources or expertise to thoroughly validate a modern airliner so they rely on the manufacturer to self validate. Which of course may have a conflict of interest.

Re: Snowbird crash in CYKA
Ah I thought they modernized the seats in the early 2000's. That explains why the F-18 ejection seat worked much better at an even worse angle and altitude. These seats effectively drove them into the ground. You'd have to wonder if they'd be better off staying onboard and trying to pull out of the ...

Re: Snowbird crash in CYKA
It was not 90 degree nose down when they ejected. Not even close. Airspeed was actually pretty low too due to just coming out of the spin. I thought modern ejection seats were supposed to be zero-zero certified. Their chutes weren't even close to being open despite traveling a fair distance through ...

Boeing pulled the plug on the Embraer purchase.
