Re: Helicopter hours towards regional (Encore / Jazz)?
I have flown with new-hires helicopter pilots doing line indoc at Jazz on multiple occasions. I don't beleive any of them had fixed wing hours beyond what is required for licencing. To quote a chief pilot, "once at the interview, they just have to explain and defend their experience".

Re: New hire bids
Is this true for the Q as well? YVR would definitely be tight on an FO salary with the COL, but would be maybe be worth it if an upgrade was quick. Which bases/equip generally have the lowest upgrades? YYZ Q400? Looking at the seniority list it seems that YYC Q is the most senior Q base in the syst...

Re: Negotiations
Full disclosure, I'm a 15 year jazz pilot, was seriously considering Porter, even had an interview booked. For family reasons, among other things I had decided to stay before this announcement. It is a democratic process and everyone must vote as per their personal convictions and interests. That be...

Re: Negotiations
If this deal doesn't fix the problem it will have to be addressed again later. Why not collect the money while they observe wether the problem is fixed or not?
It's a yes from me

Re: Negotiations
They don’t seem to be doing very many upgrades on the Embraer lately. Maybe they got tired of doing initials on Porters behalf? :mrgreen: There's no one left to upgrade.. that's false. they had plenty but seniority made it that 25 years old captain who used to fly val d'or and rouyn were better tha...

You're seriously comparing the requirement to get a vaccine to 40 years+ of racial segregation?

Re: MPIC time or move on? What's next?
Good Day Everyone, I am new here and this question might have been asked already, my apologies if so. I've been a 703/704 FO on a Multi-Turbo prop for about 8 month now. Started out of ramp in the middle of nowhere just like the old days. I am about to reach 1000TT soon. I've got an Aviation degree...

Re: Schedules
About the PICUS program I'd like to advise not to bank on it. To log PICUS you have to be flying with a LTC; right now most LTCs are flying full line indoc lines, have been for the last 6 months+ and most likely will be for the foreseeable future. And if you are lucky enough to land a pairing with ...

Re: Jazz Experience
Jazz requires 250 multi time minimum for non college/pathway applicants. If you don't have that your name will not show up in the system for interview calls. Explanation was rate of failure is higher (don't know numbers) for candidates with low multi time, therefore higher cost for the company hence...

Re: Application to first contact?
I know for a fact the main requirements are 500 multi and A's. And sometimes they'll ask for only iatra when the bank of applications gets thinner.

Re: Jazz Share Price
There is a new profit sharing program; details elude me, but I beleive it was said its structure would be similar to how management bonuses were calculated. As for share, there has been an Employee Share Ownership Program (ESOP) for a long time already, taken off your pay and the company matches a p...
