It is very interesting that none of the noise on this site is directed at those responsible for the outbreak , and very little constructive critique's of what is to be done :) Just more Marxist support for the Maoists . Not one post critical of the system or President who jailed Doctors and whistle...

The Chinese CCP ( along with help from the WHO ) has succeeded in weakening the whole world. China has already declared war on the USA and shall do everything in its power to obtain world dominance,,,,, you ain't seen nothing yet folks ! I know, right? And those dastardly, godless heathens have alr...

Nah, that'd just piss him off.....

From the same website: "The PHO has ordered some types of businesses to close. Any business or service that has not been ordered to close and is also not identified on the essential service list may stay open if they can adapt their services and workplace to the orders and recommendations of t...

I'd be interested in hearing how CFC management enforces social distancing within the confines of a 40" wide light aircraft cabin. It would also be fascinating to hear how they expect instructors, students and renters to "avoid all contact with sick people" when Covid-19 carriers can ...

I can't believe we are having this dialogue of the deaf....... I know the feeling! Between March 15 and April 1,Transat did hundreds of flights at less than 50% capacity Global Affairs had no role in Paying for the flights or organizing them (save for a minute number of flights at the end and proba...

Global affairs had no role, except for a few flights. A minute portion of flights. That's going to come as a surprise to those Global Affairs personnel tasked with responding to inquiries from, and managing the repatriation of, the several hundred thousand to several million Canadians (depending wh...

Like I already wrote, the vast majority of the passengers Transat brought home, came back using the return portion of round trip tickets they had purchased before the crisis. These tickets had been priced on the assumption that the outbound flight would have been nearly full. They were empty. Only ...

Do you have any evidence that all of the above was done for free? I'm not clear how the OP got the impression that Canadian airlines have been forced to do all this flying for free. In fact, press coverage suggests the opposite is true: https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2020/04/02/dont-make-us-pa...

The blame game is important because it holds people accountable. The onus is on the Chinese government to keep this from happening again. Good luck with enforcing that! How about we all just accept that regardless of how this one started, or who's actually responsible, the onus is on us to ensure t...

Is this guy still worth $14 million a year?

LOL.

Apparently not: https://www.bombardier.com/en/media/new ... ercom.html

Gotta say +1 for Dr. Gillmore. He's been my CAME for 15 years now, and he's quick, efficient, thoroughly professional, and usually has a good joke or funny anecdote ready to boot. Good guy - highly recommended.

Debt collectors don't have the power to go after your credit rating, just harass you and threaten you. That depends on what you mean by "going after your credit rating". Licensed collection agencies do in fact report assigned accounts to the various credit bureaus: it's one more way of pr...

Hahaha, "insurance will just pay", funniest thing I've read today. That's not their business. Actually, my wife and I had to cancel a Caribbean vacation last year about a week before departure, for medical reasons. Fortunately, we had purchased travel insurance. The claims process was str...

Sorry, but no: a creditor (in this case, the employer) is not required to obtain a judgment before assigning a debt (in this case, the employee bond) to a collection agency. Note that this does not mean a court would necessarily rule the bond to be enforceable, should recovery efforts include litig...

How would not paying out your bond trash a credit rating? Company goes to a collection agency. I admit my knowledge of this is fairly limited, but isn't that only the case after they get a court order? So they would have to prove to a judge the bond is valid. Then, if you still refuse to pay, a col...

Saab guy, I don't need to give you examples since it was just my observation while being employed in the industry with many companies and on contract and seeing how some companies defer often, have multiple ( many) U/S systems on overwater flights, recurring snags that are continually signed off as...

My intent with the post was to refer to A/C that did not have an MMEL and also to give an example of some airlines who abuse the MMEL. Terrific, except that you haven't actually provided any examples of airlines that misuse the MMEL process - you've just made a fairly serious but completely unsubst...
