Job posting for Captains and FOs on their 737. Weird, I thought they just did patch work. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/enerjet-relaunching-as-new-canadian-ultra-low-cost-carrier-in-2019-1.1186553 Something about the related WOW Air article (New Vancouver - Iceland Route :rolleyes: ) on that same pag...

What is at play here goes beyond AC, beyond aviation.

We're marching into neo-feudalism at full speed!

Its pretty much a done deal when you have well indoctrinated peasants telling other peasants to Get over it, go back to you plow somewhere.

When are passengers going to want to get back on that plane? That's the real question. As someone else said, by the time the plane returns to service people will have moved on to the next Facebook crisis. Also if the airlines make Max seats $25 cheaper than other types they’ll fill the plane Swoop ...

18 planes eh...

I read recently that tourism on the island was tanking. I wonder how much that had to do with it.

You're all teenage girls as well, right?

What are you marketing exactly? Normally those gathering this type of data provide some sort of reward...

Leave it to a bunch of pilots to do it for free

Company's last 2 quarterly statements said slowing global demand for shipments. Less shipping very likely means fewer aircraft needed.

Ahh so you're inferring. Fair enough.

Would 4G negative be possible to achieve, even instantaneously? A loaded 767 is a lot of mass to make change its velocity that quickly by diving, isn't it? There is a pretty long arm between the 767 cockpit - where I presume the reading was recorded - and its lateral axis. The longer the arm, the h...

They hit a negative 4 G dive initialy on the FOs push. All you hear is stuff hitting the ceiling and at one point a loud thud. Would 4G negative be possible to achieve, even instantaneously?

If the choice is between Jazz and Cathay, as it stands right now and assuming your relatively young and single, Cathay wins hands down. That being said, the geopolitical situation in Asia doesn't have the best outlook. One can easily end up having to "retreat" to Canada after 5 years as an SO at Ca...

Why aren't any of you commenting on this article on the National Post website?

I figured you guys would be letting it rip. All there is is some dude trying to pump up his Chorus stock... Weak!

Ahhhh, so they speculated and got burned. Nothing new there...

It is important to note that 50 or so Swoop pilots are screaming to get back to mainline to fill positions that are presently being filled by new hires. No one knows what the outcome will be. Can you elaborate on this? Are these former WJ F/Os that went to Swoop for a Capt. position and now want to...

Umm... WestJet / Encore!?

Great read rigpiggy.

I've always liked flying in the wee hours, although not every night of course. Something about being up when everyone else is asleep. The peace and quiet - enroute at least - always puts me in a contemplative mood...

Congrats. You’ve accomplished something I hope I never have to do. Everyone is different. I know some that relish the adventure of living in other cultures and seeing the world and all its wonders over staying in the country that only by luck someone happened to be born in and being nothing but a d...

Apparently they're doing an ACMI lease for the next eight years. So unless you have Latvian citizenship, you might be SOL! Not sure how much to read into this though...
