I can totally see him saying something this stupid. He has said some pretty outrages things to AC ground-schools.

Like?

I'd love to know how many applications are coming in from each airline. If Porter is opening YHZ with the jet, I wouldn't be surprised to see AC new hires from the East Coast resign and move over. I'm totally speculating of course but eliminating the commute from one's life to an operation that seem...

1) assuming that the OP's facts are correct, the parties entered into a contract and the seller is obligated to sell to the buyer at the agreed upon price. If you do that with a house you WILL get sued. No difference as a matter of law. 2) complaining on an aviation forum and wanting to complain to...

Training pay starts when training starts. “Home Study” through the training apps is monitored, acknowledged, tested and stored …. and is regarded by Transport Canada as approved training. You will receive direction on how to accomplish this training. It is required and you are paid. Once you are on...

Are you paid for the self study week? I don't think I got that.

Your official start date is the start of your home study. Yes you are paid for it.

Blind faith in ALPA being some messiah is laughable. “ALPA” is just a name. The big change is the mentality of the pilots, allowing ALPA’s existence for AC’s pilots. You're entitled to that view point... I hope you're not disappointed in the long run. As you are to yours. But stating the change of ...

They went 11 straight quarters with a loss. That isn't concerning to me. If you look at the trend, the losses have been significantly reduced each quarter. I don't know what impact the delays and cancellations will have on the upcoming Q but I suspect the company will be back in the black very shor...

AFAIK last quarter was the first quarter AC has posted a profit since covid. They went 11 straight quarters with a loss. That isn't concerning to me. If you look at the trend, the losses have been significantly reduced each quarter. I don't know what impact the delays and cancellations will have on...

Schedule satisfaction means different things to different people. If your days off are the most important thing to you, then one could say as long as you get all your days off you are 100% satisfied. Conversely if you only want long layovers in your fav spot one could say you are 100% satisfied if ...

I was going through the forums to find updated info on AC staff travel benefits for Pilots. Couldn't find much recent info. Can someone at AC please share what the staff travel benefits are like for Pilots. Does staff travel or jumpseat benefits start on Day 1 or do you have to wait 3 or 6 months f...

Most people applying are doing so to get a seniority number to hedge their bets that flat pay will all but be eliminated on the next contract within the next year and/or a quick upgrade after a year. I would suspect that both bargaining parties are aware that applicants will fall off a cliff once p...

I thought jazz stopped hiring until 2024? Their ad is still up. Also haven't they hemorrhaged enough guys to AC without adequately replacing them? Westjet is still hiring, so is Porter and PAL. Flair will be resuming soon and Lynx is ongoing and Transat is also hiring. Don't think we will see a slo...

Cojoe knows very little about anything, other than circlejerks with tbaylx.

What are you,12?

Hi all, for the foreseeable future who has the fastest upgrade times from right to left seat of the 737NG (or really any narrowbody jets)? Planning to hopefully get on the 737 someday soon. Thanks in advance. This depends on your current experience. Care to share? If you have moderate experience (5...

Excuses? Who do you think you are and what right do you have to tell another FO not to do what they need to feed their family. It’s not excuses — it’s desperate. I feel for anyone on flat pay. It should’ve been abolished long time ago. Having flown with some I’m hearing some dire circumstances. It ...

The difference in the Swoop case though was that the pilots and other WestJetters didn’t chose to get a cat, dog or goat. It would be more like a man rented an apartment and his landlord said “hey, you need to have this cat, dog and goat come stay with you!” And the man responds, ya, that’s not a g...

What?! Oh...first post. LOL

I found Lindsay, who was selling an aviation headset mic. He is based in YYZ and lives in Etobicoke. I asked for his email so I could send an e-transfer to have him delete the ad. He provided me with his email address. I then inquired if he could drop it off at Canada Post, and I assured him that I...

literally every aspect of life at Flair has improved tremendously since the repo man kicked us in the nuts. Ask the YXX crews how their lives are improving Probably the same as the Swoop pilots who were kicked out of YEG, or the Air Transat pilots in YVR... Life goes on. From what I hear all 16 YXX...

B1s cost the company nothing (okay, that extra 80 kilos has an effect on fuel burn, I guess) so taking them away is just a dramatic statement. Not to mention, your 80 Kgs affect on fuel burn is the same, B1, C1, C2, etc. Yesterday an F/A said, (smugly) I hear you’re about to lose your B1s. Now, we’...
