There were other factors at play here obviously with the crew and the response, or lack thereof, but especially worth noting: "The probable cause of this accident was the inappropriate response by the first officer as the ...

I have been in the industry for about 5 years and I have been feeling like ever since getting into this industry it has been a constant 1 step fwd, 2 steps back affair while training to and eventually becoming a 1000hr Pilot. Recently I took a step back from flying full time to pursue and complete ...

So I'm currently in the phase of almost getting my PPL but I have some questions to ask if I choose to proceed forward. I don't want to be the guy who after spending over a 100K in training be stuck into just getting a job once I'm done with all this. My parents started mocking me already by saying...

Putting things into perspective - finding employment with a CARS 705 airline required years of experience many years ago. It is a privilege to be sitting in the flight deck of an airliner that not many people can experience. By that logic, a medevac cockpit would be much more exclusive. There are w...

No disagreement with any of the comments above, except my mother did not name me Clive.

Cheers and safe flying folks.

If WJ offered you an interview I would not turn it down.

I have a question to all pilots : usually, how many resumes do you send before receiving an interview application ? I have sent about 10 resumes to the airlines, there are no response. 10000 hours B737,Canadian ATPL With B737 endorsement, Medical certificate, but just open work permit, no PR or Can...

Hello folks, I wonder how to finance your flight training in Ontario ? PS: I’m Ontario resident. I’m talking about going to colleges(not the government subsidizes) or just going to FTUs for modular quickest programs available such as CPL, with or without multi & ifr. All I know is banks would offer...

I'm happily working at a desk job in a major city in Canada. I'm not sure I'd like to do this forever but I'm making about what a captain at Jazz would and I'm home every night. I have a home and a partner so I really don't want to pack up and go to the North. Ignoring that part though, either way ...

I am not ignorant to what is out there in our industry but I have been on the other side of the career fence. This is a great profession with highs and lows. Money is important but if it is the be all and end all newcomers to this profession will surely be disappointed very early on and should serio...

Hi there everyone. I just don't understand this clearly but why do people comment things about the bad stuff the airlines or what the whole industry is doing or treating their pilots. Like for example I saw alot of these recent Westjet threads complaining about the net pay and years of service thin...

I have the Garmin Venu 2. There is a 3rd party app I downloaded that displays UTC, home time and local time. Local time updates automatically. I use it for exercising as well, tracking water intake, etc. Battery life is great. The sleep tool is pretty good too. The metal encasing is prone to scratch...

Hey anyone know the current minimum requirements to get on the An225? Do you have to know someone at the company or do they hire OTS? If there are any An225 pilots on here, I am interested to know what the schedule/pay is like and if they would hire commuters. PM if you prefer. Official Ukrainian s...

Hello all Can anyone tell me if a diagnosis of sleep apnea will disqualify me from getting my privet pilot's license? I've read through everything I can find but I haven't found anything definitive. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you You should ask a civil aviation medical examiner in ...

Flight sim helped me immensely during my training when it came to procedural items. There are great addons that are pretty much bang on in visuals to what students would train on at a local flying club. Your typical at home based simulator will never be the "real" thing, but it is great for hammerin...

Anyone complete flight training while also working a full-tume job Monday to Friday? How long does it take to go from zero to CPL and all the rating needed to find a job to start climbing the ladder? I worked a regular 9-5 type job and trained part-time. I was on and off with the CPL training and h...

As per the AIM COM 5.4.2: "The LP and LNAV minima indicate an NPA, while the LNAV/VNAV and LPV minima refer to APV approaches (RNAV approaches with vertical guidance). However, the actual terms “NPA” and “APV” do not appear on the charts because they are approach categories not related to specific p...

I left a stable career with great pay, pension + benefits. It was a great job that I enjoyed very much but like you the desire to fly was stronger. I had the support of an awesome wife and we have a family. I have zero regrets and I love what I do everyday. It is doable. Keep your head down and blin...

When the ENG start selector flips to AUTO, the ignitor's fire with LE slats extended or engine anti-ice on.

I'm no Boeing guru, but my best guess is going to CONT covers the above with the LE slat asymmetry issue.

Ahmet, You made a mistake and without a doubt have learned from it. That's called life. As a CPL holder, you are still exercising the privilege's of your private pilot license when you take your friends or family up :) To help you moving forward with your time building, what I did in the past when I...

I will be graduating with an honors in chemistry by next year with a GPA around 3.5. I want to pursue my goals of becoming an CP at Jazz. The closest flight school with ATPL course and Jazz pathway is BFS Brampton flight school. It will cost me around 90,000 dollars an investment I am willing to ma...

I found instructing to be a rewarding and satisfying job. The best job in aviation that I have ever had to gain experience and move up. If you like people, teaching is a worthwhile endeavor. Though there's nothing wrong with working the ramp as an entry-level position and paving your path that way. ...
