Re: Air Canada Pilots Pull Out
We all need to engage the guys next to us every pairing. The company managers are pretending that they don't have anything to address with us now or in the incoming negotiations, they think that status quo is good enough. The company will not do anything without us forcing them. Not covering the fl...

Re: Toronto base wins the PRIZE!
Exactly, yes trying to make ends meet because one in on flat pay is understandable but it s working against their own best interests. It funny how in accepting flat pay there has been the ridiculous mental pretzel of justification by saying “short term pain for long term gain”. So that justification...

Re: New immigration program to fill in-demand jobs. Pilots made the list.
I dont know why, no criminal record, no violations. 2/3rds of my time is multi IFR with about 300 hrs of that pic, the rest is single engine. I thought maybe its because I'm 50, but with all the employers preaching diversity now that shouldnt be an issue, but then again maybe they figure a 50 year ...

Re: Any US Visa success stories?
Does the EB2 give you the legal rights to work in the US while you wait for the green card? Are you applying to companies there while you do all your licence conversions? Cheers EB2 is a green card. The poster isn't making sense with how they worded things. I presume they meant they got approved, b...

Re: New immigration program to fill in-demand jobs. Pilots made the list.
Let's think about this for a moment. Who would apply for this? On the one hand low time pilots who can't find a job in their home country. They will likely arrive here with 500 hours or less. There is no shortage of 500 hour pilots here, but it also won't affect candidates at the airlines. It's the...

Re: Explain why junior WestJet pilots should accept $80,000 step 1 & 2?
WestJet pilots get a lower raise than Canadian Air Transport Security Authority CATSA will get double the recent increases in the pilot contract, a 33% domestic increase to CATSA while pilots get 16% li.png $10-$35 increases on fares. The public will never accept those increases and will refuse to ...

Re: WestJet AIP
This should be on the AC forum, as were hijacking Westjets, however one comment... It's far past time that AC Mainline pilots stood up and acted like the Legacy pilots they are "posing" as. Proper compensation is the "very backbone" of the profession, and we've been lacking said backbone for a long...

Its not corperate, but you should look into Voyauger. And with alot of CL65 time im sure you'll go straight to the left seat. 8 weeks on, 8 weeks off. And you get to live anywhere in the world.

Re: Don't be a scab
It is my understanding that the 72 hour strike notice can be given on the 13th at 1 minute past midnight (i.e. tonight). I'm not sure whether the CIRB thing will hold things back or not, it was a last ditch deperate attempt by the company just like the Sunwing wet lease which they did a 180 on with...
