Re: Prehire Simulator Checks

Better to find out in the sim evaluation than spend thousands of dollars and find out you wont pass the type rating course. One ar...

Re: Sunwing/Canjet fleet and foreign pilots, Winter 2013-201

Sunwing and canjet hire foreign pilots because the claim they cannot get qualified Canadian pilots. Does that mean anyone with a Canadian atpl with 737ng rating get hired right away?

So it seems all new hires will either be placed as EMJ FO or RP (767/330/777).. What may you bid for next .. Could EMJ FO bid for EMB Capt? RP bid for FO?

Do all the TC offices in Canada administer the same exam? (meaning are the questions the same at all the exam centers)? Is there any advantage in choosing one center over an another?

Samra/Samron

Hello All,

Can anyone tell me if you need to have a 'valid' IFR rating to write the Samra/Samron or do you only need the IFR to get your ATPL licence?

Also anyone know how long the Samra/Samron stay valid? (assuming you dont apply for the ATPL licence right away)

Thanks for the help..

After reading alot of post on this board regarding joing AC, Air Transat and Westjet. It seems everyone getting into these companies is coming from Jazz. Would it be worth it to join jazz for a few years to get into one of the big companies?? For those who have lots of experience (5000TT+) non Jazz,...
