How many pilots do you know who have had a successful outcome for a wrongful dismissal suit? Without committing career suicide or ending up financially/emotionally bankrupt? I think that's the point. Not many have had the b-alls to try a wrongful dismissal lawsuit out of fear of losing their job. S...

J'ai de la peine pour les 150 personnes qui perdent leurs jobs, déplorable. Pour les deux autres... pentoute!!!

from a school who a few short years ago had 2 cessna 150s and did briefings in a rented cold room on the backside of some forgotten airport. If this is what you know about Embry-Riddle, you obviously don't know what you are talking about. Embry-Riddle is compared to Harvard for aviation, nothing le...

C'est certain que si tu pognes un cancer, c'est pas ce médical la qui va te le faire savoir!

The national bid is online again. Why is that? Do they start all over again? Why would they post it again?

What prevents you from applying?

Got one as well.

Didn't open it, though. Can we delete it without opening it? Couldn't find how.

And now they are asking all FSSs what their career plans are for the next 12-24 months... what's next?

Quelques précisions... ce n'est pas qu'à Sept-Îles que c'est comme ça, n'importe quelle MF avec une FSS sur place ou en RAAS qui se trouve dans l'espace aérien contrôlé est comme ça. À CYVP par exemple, c'est non-contrôlé autour de la MF, c'est différent. si vous prenez le départ VFR, assurez vous d...

Yes, it's a northern station.

Not sure about all the rules and why this is all legal. I'm not good at this.

It is my understanding that most isolated sites have that kind of schedule as far as days worked per month.

ATC is required to adhere to the code regarding maximum hours (including O/T) that we are allowed to work every 56 days, why not y...

Here's ours... Starting on a monday evening: 7 evenings (3h30-11h36) Monday off. 11 days (07h30-15h36) with a quick change on the 11th day, meaning we come back that very same evening for 7 midnights (23h30-07h36). Saturday and sunday off. Back on evenings. Do I like this schedule? Nope! But that's ...

I wouldn't mind flying for KLM either. I was in Amsterdam last April, I'd move there tomorrow!

most northern sites get little OT now adays anyway, other than rankin We work 28 days a month. With only three days off, I wonder how we could work more...

If that qualifies... the american lunar program of the sixties.

Je veux pas repartir un vieux débat mais payer son PPC n'est pas plus acceptable que de travailler sans être payé...

C'est tout de même bien de voir que les conditions s'améliorent.
