Has anyone been interviewed or heard back after an interview?

Caravan bonus is 6K every six months.

The 1st 6k is paid to you on your 1st check.......

So there is no waiting around for the bonus to hit. You will miss out on some on the back end depending on when you started.

The upgrade time on the B757 at the moment is less than a year. Driving to work at night with no traffic allows for living in cheaper regions like Oshawa and Hamilton etc. The B757 is GORGEOUS!

The training is always top notch.

I work at MAL and I love it. Great crew, great Chief Pilots, good pay and benefits. I've worked on both the Caravan and the B757.

I would not recommend this job for those seeking a quick route to the majors. If you enjoy most weekends off and all holidays off working with a great crew on well maintained aircraft for decent pay and benefits then apply.

Nights on the 57 can be tough, but that comes with obvious rewards. The Caravan sched is a game changer. (Plus that bonus!!)

Finally, I feel respected and appreciated here. The company and union allow me to do what I want. I feel like the CPs genuinely want you to be happy.


I never have, and likely never will apply to AC.. Whatever that is worth.

Is the 757 commutable from a city with a caravan base?

[Duukar]

A few commute from Winnipeg and Edmonton(not a 208 base). Vancouver is out of the question in my opinion.

Rumor mill says they are taking steps to make commuting more viable. These are strictly rumors at this point.

In regards to the C208 position out of YYZ, is there a requirement to be within a certain distance, or time to the airport for those days that you may be on reserve? Is it possible to live in a city that is one hour away with this position?

How much of a stickler are they on the hours requirement for the 208 as well?

If you are short of their new 1500 hour requirement you can always try it, but realize it is single pilot IFR in southern Ontario.

They used to have as a requirement 2000 hrs with significant PIC, or 1500 with 500hrs on Caravans specifically because it can be a challenging environment when the weather isn't cooperating.
