A reduction bid just means they are fat in some bases and skinny in others. Screenshot_20250222_191336_Slack.jpg Do we even have any hint on what the alignment will be? Im expecting to be on the short end of the stick in terms of being pushed out of my base, and im starting to think about a game pl...

Im going to be taking the aerocourse to prep for my upcoming ATPL exams. I was hoping to get an understanding of what is covered throughout the few days. Do they focus on the content of the exam? Or more so on how to respond and dissect the questions that you can expect to get?

Currently studying for the SAMRA but have been using the 5th edition as I bought it for the IATRA a few years back.

Is it still an adequate source to study? Or should the 6th edition be used since I know thats been released.

TIA.

Firstly, does someone have a way to dumb these down a little bit? I simply can't wrap my head around what these are/or do. Besides the fact that one is DME/DME and one is VOR/DME. Secondly, any idea if these are still brought up on the SAMRA? Trying to decide if I should dedicate time to understandi...

Has anyone had success at listing a training bond repayment as an employment expense for their taxes? If so how is this looked at by the CRA? Genuinely curious as I've gotten mixed answers from them.

I recently lost my RAIC, and was unable to find it before leaving the job. It was classified at Failed To Return. It was reported lost with the issuing office.

Im starting a new 705 job in a few weeks that needs a RAIC from a different airport. Will i have issues applying for a new one?

I guess heres an update on what ended up happening. After i got my initial emergency treatment, and had my medical verbally revoked by my CAME, I started all of my required follow up treatment for the condition that I had. I essentially harassed the TC office to try and get an answer on what needed ...

Does anvone know the status of the pool? I know its dependant on class sizes and experience. I'm in it, with several hundred Multi-Crew turbine and over 1000TT. Im guessing classes are Oct 31 (full), Nov 21, Dec 12 if they run one over Christmas. But its tough to tell as I know they shifted their hi...

Anyone who has recently taken the SARON, how many questions did you get regarding the new regs?

Hey everyone! Last week I scheduled an online interview through RIVS for 2 months down the road. I was told that sometimes earlier dates pop up, and to use the “Reschedule” button to check RIVS every so often for earlier openings. Does anyone know if clicking the reschedule option just to view openi...

Outside of the obvious answer of Aerocourse and the Weather Manual, whats the next best study tool for the A’s? I personally liked the design of NIZUS when I studied for the IATRA, with how they give you a direct reference to the information with each question. It allowed me to solve my own personal...

Is Jazz currently hiring for positions or for a pool?

I was hoping someone could quote me the correct/up to date answer from the CARS or AIM for the IATRA study topic discussing climb gradients for multi-engined airplanes. I have seen two different answers, and have not been able to find anything super recent. One source says: 2.4 degree gradient for t...

Has anyone ever dealt with Civil Aviation Medicine?

I just submitted a report of some serious care that I got recently that as per my CAME, I unfortunately need to wait for approval to fly again.

Does anyone know how long it takes for them to review files?

Are there any benefits that come with holding an Air Crew RAIC?

Ive heard about the obvious ones like the trusted traveller line at security, and Harbour Air in BC. But is there anything else?

Ok

Has anyone used the Hangaaar online ground school? If so, what was your experience?

I am considering taking the IFR course for INRAT prep.

Does anyone have any personal connections that they can pass along for medical examiners in the Vancouver area that might be able to fit in a last minute renewal?

Would greatly appreciate it!

Are they a thing?

Saw about 9 airplanes holding short in CZBB last week.

I've heard plenty of stories about how young pilots would drive across the country to drop off resume's in search of their first job, or during times of trouble where jobs are hard to come by. Is this something that's still done? Would love to hear some success and unsuccessful stories to learn the ...

Whens an appropriate time to include a cover letter in an application?

Obviously when asked you would include it, but would you include it when not specifically requested? What are the thoughts of sending the cover letter in the body of the email?

We are in a time right now where of the few jobs that are available, we have to fight for them. Sure, a low time pilot may not have as much experience compared to someone with 5000-6000 hours, but they still went through the same process of training, put in the same amount of effort, and many have t...

Besides Coastal Pacific Aviation in Abbotsford, are there Any PA30 operators in the lower mainland?

Did it today. Passed with 82.

As mentioned above, there are loads of resources on avcanada that have very very similar questions to what you will find.

I write tomorrow so I can't tell you what i'll get. But I can tell you that when I started studying for this, it was my first time reviewing the material in a year since a lot of it was similar to CPL stuff. NIZUS was great because it gave you direct references to the AIM so you could find the expla...
