Re: TC medical fee

Careful, they may or may not send you a bill. If they don't send it to you, they'll send it to the CRA without making and effort to contact you with your phone number or email on file.

Re: Westjet Passenger Claims Corona Virus

Here's the solution.

Send him to Wuhan.
Hope he gets the 2019 Novel Coronavirus.
Pray that he learns his lesson before he gets better after a week and comes home to the same fame as Chair Girl.

Re: AC emergency

Back up landing gear lmfaoooo It’s a crappy way to explain to the public that thanks to dual wheels you can land and taxi in without every passenger being killed or worse. I expect the news agencies were told there are redundancies on every system of a modern airliner, including the wheels. Well, t...

Unlimited Travel Pass

It seems like Flair is either trying a tactic that has proven itself a failure in the past, or they are very desperate for money.

Re: Foreign Pilots in China being sent home?

I'm being told at least 5 Chinese airlines on the mainland have either released their pilots or have sent them on leave indefinitely without pay as a result of the economic effects of the coronavirus. Can anyone corroborate this and/or add any details? I haven't seen anything in the news aside from...

Re: Turkish overrun

Landing runway 06 when the winds were reported 29022G37 and +TSRA.

So, 30 knot tailwind with a runway that likely has standing water. That's not an accident... it's poor decision making.

Re: Why can they get passenger rights but no proper rest and fatigue rules?

Watch what you wish for. The EU regs aren’t much better then Canada. And it takes way more time to figure out. Shorter days also lead to more days worked and less days off. What do you think needs changing? I think all we need is lowering duty day length with increased sectors and limiting night ti...

Re: Pilot Transfer Agreement

Now that the PTA is in effect and the first bid involving all three groups is out, one question out of curiosity. There are pilots who bid over to Swoop for the upgrade and are now rethinking that decision and bidding back to Westjet as an FO. Do those pilots? A) return to year 1 FO pay for Westjet...
