Re: Reserve time?

lowoleo22 wrote: Thu Jun 12, 2025 10:49 am Which fleet? Which position? Which base?

DH8 YTZ FO - 11 months
DH8 YTZ CA - 4 months

I don't have E2 numbers or numbers for other bases.
Thanks for sharing. How many hours are DH8 FOs flying while on reserve? Just wondering how long it takes to build up the time on type for left seat upgrades.

You're welcome. There are a few other ALPA CBAs on negotech:

PAL Aerospace CBA

Hi,
Looking for info (payscales, schedules, training agreements...etc.) on the new PAL Aerospace pilot CBA ratified last summer. Haven't been able to dig up anything on Negotech. Particularly interested in the medevac side.
Thanks

Re: Air Sprint Questions

Hi IcePharaoh, Depending on the type we do have some availability there at the moment. Historically YVR has been a fairly popular base so movement there is based on a number of factors such as our growth and current pilots holding the base upgrading or changing types. Hope that helps! Kind Regards,...

Hi,

Any FO hiring into the YVR base at the moment? How difficult is it to transfer there later if starting out elsewhere?

Thanks

We're tentatively plannign a small groundschool of under 10 pilots in May or June and likely one more in the fall sometime.
When do you anticipate informing interviewed candidates of the outcome for the May/June ground school?

The invite for the interview/selection came with a link to view available interview dates - I only had 2 dates available of which only one I could actually make work and it was less than a week away. May have been different for others.

I did the in person interview and testing for Flair back in November. I ended up getting PFO'd but never really set myself up for success. They only had 2 dates available for the assessments, and I was flying on the first day so took the red eye to YYZ from YYC after a duty day (Flair provided the ...

Re: Dash FO to captain upgrade time

Isn't 500 hrs on type a requirement though? From what I remember of their upgrade matrix yes. Perhaps a Porter pilot can confirm? Given the hours the Q FOs fly it might take a while to make that upgrade. Also, does Porter count YOS on the E175 for the E2 starting pay like they do with the Q? If so ...

Thanks for the info. Applied back in October for Dash FO, however I'm pretty sure there are plenty of more experienced candidates. The application status never changed from 'submission received' though.

Re: Example Schedule

Do YVR pilots often find themselves flying on the east coast as well? I can see it happening more fluidly on the CRJ with the routes linking up in the middle, but what about the Q400? How would that work? Deadhead on an AC flight?

Re: Q400 FO Hiring

From what I hear, they are hiring instructors and/or people with 703 time. 1000+ hours. The FO side of the Q is still staffed more than adequately, but the reason they are continuing to hire is probably related to the jet operation. I'm assuming you mean to cover for when/if the upper echelons of Q...
