Dude, Irish Travellers are some of the worst trash on Earth.

And what airlines would you like to apply to?

Normal Aging (About 40%): Roughly 40% of adults over 65 experience standard, minor age-associated memory lapses (like misplacing keys) that do not interfere with daily life. Mild Cognitive Impairment (10% to 20%): About 10% to 20% of people over 65 have Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), which is a mo...

This 'Hey Air Canada, please honour our deal' ad campaign feels kind of embarrassing.

I often wondered if I could operate a 767 out of the northern Reserve strips that are 3500 feet. It's an amazing STOL machine for a wide body jet. This is nearly as embarrassing as Jazz going off the end in North Bay. That's probably why this accident happened actually, it needs so little runway to ...

If the YVR FO rep ends up there...definitely not. His $40k a month of OT whoring probably beats out even the most 3rd World slave labor contract. Unions representing employees working for a federally regulated employer can file unfair labour practice complaints with the CIRB. One example of unfair ...

Do you think when we land our 321XLR in Nigeria we might not be the lowest paid pilots there?

This time it's Montreal.

Yep, let's be real. This thing ran out of gas.

I've heard from a BC business owner how difficult it is to find front line staff with decent manners. It's not that they're bad people, they just don't know any better. I can second Cornwall. I flew across Canada to Ottawa rented a car and was back on a plane to BC the very same day after getting my...

I can't help but feel we blew our chance.

Fuel starvation is another possible cause then.

I think it is simply a case of being stuck in the middle during these changes. Had the changes come earlier I would have just remained left seat on the 1900 until I had my ATPL, I imagine this is what most pilots coming up will do- stay at a 703 until they can upgrade and get ATPL then move onto a ...

I and two others I know have had to deal with cancelled flights in the last month or so. Three hour wait for me, another drove to destination and a third scrambled to catch Porter at YTZ. Weather was reasonable to great. In my experience it's usually a short staffing problem. There is such a weird ...

I appreciate your post and review Old Fella. I agree with all your points. Air Canada (and Toronto) have become world class. I really hope the Canadian economic downturn over the past few years won't set things back again.

Another good thing to know to not be offensive is that Sikh men and women are allowed to carry knives onboard planes in Canada. They lobbied and were given an exemption to Transport Canada rules in 2017 for religious reasons. They just can't carry them on flights to the U.S..

By saying it's just temporary.

My intent was to show another example of the company ignoring a negotiated contract and saying 'eff you, grieve it' when the labour group complains.

Is ALPA Canada planning to engage with the government over these sweeping changes to labour law — including the right to strike? This seems like exactly the kind of thing we pay union dues for them to advocate for us. Maybe they have already and are working on communicating that to us?

A lot of FAs are wonderful people to work with though. The vast majority of them actually. CUPE may have flaws but they stood up to Section 107 after our union was too chicken to do it. For that all Canadian organized labour groups owe them a huge thank you.

I didn't know helicopters triggered lightning but it makes sense with the rotor creating static. Just another reason not to get into one I guess.

I've decided to turn off all emergency alerts. The odds of me and my passengers being injured or killed due to my sleep disruption is higher than me and my family being killed by a natural disaster.

Does anyone know if this setting in Android will finally stop these alerts? I recently lost a lot of crew rest because of a 1AM alert occurring 15 hours away from my hotel in Vancouver.
