I have no idea where anyone is getting any info on reducing classes. Show me the report?

There's a class starting tomorrow and another on Sept 9th.

Zing. This would be my first Union merger. As I said bump and flush and I'll consider it. I'd want it laid out clearly immediate flush and new vote... no interim period. I'm not voting for anything that results in a recently AT guy just became AC guy to lead a new Air Canada pilot group. At least n...

Re ALPA, - I am generally pro-ALPA. I wouldn't have a problem if we transitioned ACPA to ALPA, but not like this. ALPA wants us and we can make gains in the deal by negotiating a Union merger. We already secured Group A carrier status with our own EVP at the head table. We also secured seperate ele...

AC ups it to $18. Secures Letko support for acquisition. AC new hire courses postponed. Good luck everyone wherever you sit and whatever happens. Where do you see AC new hire courses postphone? You DO realize that even with 550 AT pilots who likely won't be here for a year still, we are still short...

Not "too" many 3-4 year FO's at Sky. They're usually unique situations for any number of reasons. The main issue there is that while capt attrition has always been at a steady rate, the FO's previously hired at 2500 hours were upgradeable at the 2 years by the matrix (Also coincidentally eligible f...

We should make fake resumes and apply. Get scheduled for an interview and then just not show up in mass numbers.

It's the smart move for any Transat investor who wants to get paid. This deal seems off. Mach said they want to secure "at least" 6.9 million shares. If the AC deal is voted down, won't the share price drop back to pre-merger discussion prices? Mach is then holding "at least" 6.9 million shares the...

AC can add pilots at will. Bottom of the barrel? Have you read recent new hire bios from flag carriers and heavy jets around the world and other Canadian 705 jet airlines? I didn't mean bottom of the barrel in a derogatory way. I know there are some high time new hires, but there are A LOT of peopl...

According to Cat Driver we are all dumb pilots since there is no edumacation requirement to hold an ATPL.

I disagree. AC acquiring Transat will provide many positives that have already been beaten to death on here. Think long term. This would be good for AC. Agree to disagree? It may be a slight net positive for AC shareholders. But it will be a definite negative for AC pilots. No point in rehashing......

:smt078 Quit flying. Get a law degree. Work your way up the corporate ladder on Bay Street. Never bitch about the amount that successful people make. It is there for you as well, you just have to do it This is quite direct, but it does highlight a very realistic message of how the world works in a f...

Says the guy who accepted the shitty 4 year flat pay to get into AC last month... Barking up the wrong tree there Sherlock. It’s says the guy who turned down a Jan course for that exact reason. The guy you’re referring to, AC is lucky to have despite the 4 year starting pay. I’m not sure I’m unders...

Our contract language does not force AC to put out a bid every two months. They are just PLANNED bids. Bids cause activation dates and then trigger $$$$$ down the road. The bid may very well come out today. It may also get delayed a couple of weeks. Either one won’t likely change when people transf...

Rumours have it that the company is planning to delay the bid until after the Transat shareholder vote. During the last merge AC moved a bunch of hiring to Canadian Airlines to take pressure off the AC training department. Transat has under utilized aircraft and a training department that isn’t way...

Big bid tomorrow. Apparently the biggest AC has ever had. Get that left seat bid in before they all disappear for a decade.

Wow, that's pretty low.

Makes you think that even with giving 12hours you probably shouldn't have more than 2-3 drinks before hand and only over a few hours.

So what are 250 hour wonder pilots supposed to do? The only real option is to instruct ... The only other option is, ramp ... So I ask, how are the 703/704 operators supposed to attract 750,1000, 1500 hour guys when there is this "shortage" and most are going to the regionals anyways You are confla...

I can't find him in any new hire bios, training report, or on the company directory. So I'm pretty sure he's still at Flair and the other fella who was a Swoopster/Flair Pilot around the same time is not the same person.
