Re: Canjet going under (again)?
Sorry for you guys at Canjet but listen to Gilles - his assessment is not only bang on but it is a wake up call for those of you clueless to what these companies have been up to. Canjet and Sunwing represent cancers for this industry - they must be removed with the utmost hostility. They have contin...

Re: Canjet going under (again)?
Have to say I expexcted to get flamed...Fact remains what I said is true - Canjet and Sunwing do only harm to our industry... 200 pilots may lose their jobs but thousands of Canadian pilots careers are being jeopardized by the exploitive business model these 2 companies represent... Sorry if this pi...

Re: Canjet going under (again)?
I hate to say it but if Canjet and Sunwing went under we would all be better off. Foreign pilots and foreign airplanes stealing jobs from Canadian pilots has been going on long enough. Shame on Harper for allowing this rape to continue. I don't wish any ill will to those Canadian pilots at these com...

Re: cold weather IFR altitudes
Do what keeps you safe. Keep it simple - dont fly at the MEA/MOCA, fly higher. Correct your altitudes when 0 or below. Simple no?

Re: Ice Pilots Started
These "reality" shows have a lot staged... I had just landed in Miami and was getting out of the airplane when the gate attendant came up to us with a camera man and started yapping about the "emergency" we had on board with some passenger (we had none).. When we didn't play along she just stopped a...

Re: My is YBW a Circuis These Days!
What a bunch of whiners at YBW these days... :smt014 I tought there 11 years ago and I usually was alone in the circuit.... We did have " F*CK OFF! " written onto the farmers field in 50 foot high letters as a subtle message to the pilots - I guess that farmer must have killed himself by now with al...
