Re: Dreamliner Down in India
Was there a jumpseater on this flight? Unfortunately it wouldn't be the 1st time a jumpseater caused issues ie Fed Ex DC10

Re: US B-2 Mission
Sorry, blaming "go pills' was part of a desperate defense for his actions, weighing only slightly above "my parent spanked me as a kid" for legitimacy.

Re: Hydro Quebec buys ATR 72-600's
Did anyone even look at the numbers for the ATR on floats? It's only 2000lbs heavier, and slows down only 15kts. Sure it's got more power, but it's just removing the de-rate on the same engine. Meaning altitude performance is unaffected. 15kt loss in TAS, yeah right. Aerodynamic destabilizing effec...

Re: Perimeter/Bearskin hiring so many departments
Perimeter would rather have salary than a flight credit system, ALPA wants hour credit system. I believe they'd end up having to pay more to pilots on flight hour credit system.

Re: Bearskin WAWCON post perimeter merger
MECfastread said Company offered COLA increases to start because it's been stagnant for so long. Rumours from Thunder Bay is that ALPA hasn't sent a full shopping list still. Did they end up increasing the wages? No, ALPA told the pilots they were declining it on principle. They also mocked managem...
