Re: Wide body with no former jet-time
Stall... What an arrogant response that shows you probably have little if any experience operating multi crew ETOPS flights. My union related political opinions or ideas for how the airline should be managed are most likely poorly understood by yourself, but in any event are irrelevant. Myself and ...

Re: Negots Committee - Elephant in the room
Ha This is nothing more than a smear a campaign against some really great people. That DSC memo was released at the beginning of Covid under the McKay regime which consisted of YUL, YVR, and YWG reps who were company shills. They sold out their own for the company. They were nothing more than compan...

Re: Year 1 take home pay YUL
As I fly with a lot of Year 1 and Year 2 RPs, I note they look at the low starting flat pay as an “investment” toward higher pay later on. Often having to borrow funds to survive during that time. It reminds me of “the old days” where employers abused new hires just trying to get flying time. (Righ...

When this MOA Fails - Who needs to resign?

Re: A History Review
I think he got the old heave-ho along with the Former MEC Chair who was more worried about the company than running his union. They both loved concessionary deals with cargo & "best fit" The Former MEC Chair loves to troll the forums as Johnny767 or ReturnoftheMike. He still makes an appearance from...

Re: What to expect as a new Fo.
No max days (company can even override NB 16 days max), no commuting policy, lowest starting pay in the industry All under the watch of reps that won't just go away and think they are part of the solution after playing important roles in the problems Get an education, get a career in a field that re...

Re: US Airlines Hiring Canadians
Just wondering which branch of engineering you went into? I am looking at leaving this industry to go back to engineering (software) myself. I went to school in the 70's and 80's, my field was aerospace. Back then, a lot of flying jobs were seasonal, while my compatriots all joined the UIC Ski Team...
