Re: Not Essential Enough
Yep, I went to the front of the line. The US decided I’m an essential worker and asked if I would take the jab when I was down there. The healthcare worker thanked me for my service which I was surprised, grateful and thanked her for her hard work and service as well. Aircrew are performing an essen...

Re: United Airlines hiring goals
Photofly clearly has limited, myopic view of the industry and the professional standards we adhere to. The doors are wide open for anyone in the western world who wants the job, no excuses. The Far and Middle East are catching up as well. Your arguments are obtuse at best and demean anyone that is i...

Re: Fuel density effect on range/fuel capacity US West coast against south east Asia
The fuel temperature usually drops through the flight anyway. Most flight planning systems have a route temperature analysis to statistically plan for routes with seasonal variation as well as monitoring for cold temp issues. The only time we’ve compensated for temperature is when tankering from a w...

It’s like wearing a seat belt. It will give you good protection in almost all situations. It’s like wearing a rubber. It will give you good protection in almost all situations.

Re: The Return to Normal?
Maybe consider this.. The planet is the patient, humans are the virus and coronavirus is the vaccine. The federal deficit is estimated now at $186 Billion up from $28 Billion. Provincial and territorial deficits are estimated at $63 Billion combined. Municipalities are running serious deficits. This...

This site gives a pretty accurate count of aircraft in service. It’s a little more positive.
They are right on the numbers with my airline.

Re: Airlines must adapt to survive
Life in South Korea is slowly returning to normal. Bars and restaurants are open, people are out and working in Seoul. All with proper precautions of course. They were very well prepared for this with an ample supply of testing, sanitizer, wipes and masks made in Korea. There is also sufficient capa...

Re: Working overseas as a Canadian Pilot
I think it’s good to look outside Canada for other options in the industry. Going overseas does require some marketable time so maybe keep pursuing a career in Canada while looking abroad. Once you get established here and have a bit of experience, you are in a good position to stay or further explo...

Summit Air
Good Day,
I’m looking for any input about working life with Summit Air.
I’m looking at my last 5 or so years in the industry and would like to finish flying back up north. Lots of previous experience on a few of the same types, just putting the feelers out.
Thanks in advance and feel free to PM.
