Re: Timing the cycle

Just a quick calculator I built for myself to visualize the different pay increases compared to Porter and WestJet (in this case)

Even with a 40% increase, Porter will beat us in year 2 and 3 (all else being equal). :smt069

About 12 resignations on this bid alone... I'd have to go back, but I think that's the most I've seen maybe ever... There used to almost never be a resignation, in the last couple years it has been increasing. More on every bid.
I count 14 resignations. Hmmm...

That....is brutal.
Air Canada is $65.03/hr.

$65.03 * 75 = 4,877.25/month or $58,527/year.
Is this for the mainline? Lower than Jazz MMG 82.5, 5364.975/mth or 64380/yr?
I mean Mainline.

Yes.

$52.51 * 75 hours per month + $850 (MOA4) = $4788.25

$57459 per year. Estimated take home around $40,000 /year.

Re: 2 CREW restricted CAT 1 Medical

I had a 2 Crew restriction years ago.

I wasn't applying for jobs at the time, but it wasn't an issue for me. I was already flying 705 machines though.

I don't have the restriction anymore, so keep the faith. It can come off.

Re: Negotiations

Here we are. A pivotal moment is before the Jazz pilots to send a strong and decisive message, not only to Management, but to your industry peers. Ultimately we’re all in this together. The outcome of this vote WILL be used to open upcoming negotiations across the industry. Don’t think for a second ...

Leduc Townhouse for sale (or rent)

I'm trying to sell my townhouse in Leduc. If anyone knows commuters or newly based YEG pilots (especially after the recent WJ bid), please share. I'd like to sell it, but if anyone is also looking to rent... I'd consider it. 8 minutes from the airport. https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/25738480/183...

Re: Negotiations

This thread has averaged 518 views a day since its inception, currently exceeding The Air Canada OTS thread average of 231.

There's a lot of interest in ongoing negotiations.

Unfortunately, this interest in negotiations doesn't mean diddly squat.

The silence and lack of details around what was voted on is not reassuring. Huge opportunity missed for the pilot industry. I just picture Manager John Schneider looking at the lineup in the dugout.
