Is Calgary a Sunwing base, and if it is could a new hire expect to be based there? Calgary is a seasonal base which operates in the winter season only (October till May). A new-hire could probably get out there in their first season, but it varies year to year. Last year there were some vacancies l...

Could someone check the MyIDTravel website today and see if it is working for Air Canada tickets. I can't get through since last night(get an error message) but need to purchase a ticket very soon. Want to know if it is a problem at my end/company.

You claim above not to be questioning the crew's decision to evacuate. But in your every post that is exactly what you are doing, despite a positive outcome. Very helpful. Now you are simply being just a pompous ass, just for the sake of being one, misquoting other posters here. It sounds to me lik...

A few days old now but the pic, if expanded, seems to show the aircraft quite far off the runway.

It would be nice to have a policy from the mods to just delete the few posts that become a argument and keep the rest of the thread. Maybe they can do that with the one we are talking about and then delete this thread. Hate to see a good thread disappear.

Speaking of autolands at YYZ, has anybody noticed an unusual pitch up of several degrees tendency on runway 06 during an Autoland? Seen it a few times.

[quote=valleyboy post_id=1047067 time=1532780726 user_id=49277] BTW I always flew a DC3 with 2 hands on the yolk after setting power and used both hands in the flare as well and had no problem getting to throttles if needed. The only aeroplanes I didn't land with 2 hands were aircraft with spoilers....

I think most of the Swoop OTS guys are career F/Os chasing a left seat and that’s all that matters to them... Captainitis. Tb was an F/O in the sand box, an F/O at Canadian North, and an F/O at Sunwing. Went to the TSB and saw an opportunity for that coveted left seat at Swoop. Looks like he will b...

They did on this Air Astana flight in Khazakstan. Then look at what happened.

Due to your tenacious defence of AC's procedures, I will assume that you are correct Why do you still need to find some deficiency in AC’s procedures when this type of thing clearly happens to everybody? It’s like you’re on a mission to discredit AC or something and will not be deterred by anything...

Why can I not delete posts in this forum. I had a double post and it won't let me erase it.

Nice airplane though.

Speculation is somebody's opinion nothing more or less regardless the medium where expressed. ''Tis the old adage "opinions are like assholes, everybody has one". NTSB is the final authority on this incident they don't speculate. Once again, you are proving that you still don't know what you are ta...

The speculation, or comments, or ideas have been somewhat innocuous. Suspect that it is not permissible to make any inputs when big red is involved, under pain of being labeled unfit to do a job? It's just talk. People just come up with stupid statements and then claim that their age or something e...
