Thanks for the plug Doc, it's good to know we're all part of an extremely tight industry.

Since when were CMA and Jazz "great companies????"

Good luck to everyone in the job hunt.

I would give Perimeter a call. I know you guys and girls love to hate them but they are a stable outfit and the pay is good.
I don't work there any longer ( I did for 6 years )but I know they helped out a lot of Skyward guys a few years ago. They are also owned by the same company that owns Keewatin/Kivilliq as well, I think they still fly the PC12's and they have 3 or 4 King Airs.
Good luck at any rate

Judging by Scuttlebutts last night... NAC pilots are probably still in bed.

Nakina needs a capt soon. I think they pay quite a bit more than NAC too.

Georgian needs pilots. Lost more to main line etc..The road may seem long right now for some of you, but before you know it, you'll be there. Cheers. JW
Good luck everyone!


(If you have been siting right seat PC 12 and are fairly low time, I would consider getting some more PIC so that the ATPL is a possibility one day. Not to harp on about that stuff here (not the time) but you really need to look farther ahead than another right seat PC12 job; it's a great plane, it just won't do any favours to someone trying to get their ATPL or any PIC for that matter.)

How is the PC-12 not good for anyone trying to get an ATPL? Hey, I'm not trying to be combative, but it's a really good plane on which to get the experience for an ATPL. Got me mine in VERY short order. And now that AC mainline takes PC-12 time seriously, it's even better.

Just my own feeling, but I think the PC-12 was one of the best things to happen to the new pilot.

Only thing about the PC-12 and the ATPL is you need to hold the Group 1 for the ATPL. So if you have let your group 1 lapse and just using the Group 3 your going to have to renew the 1 before you get your ATPL's thats all


Side Note, How are the pilots and Mechanics doing at NAC any insight to how many have landed jobs already?

I can't speak for all, but I know a bunch of us have job offers and/or interviews. I just want to say a public "thanks" to all who have come forward with offers or connections. I'm sure that when the dust settles in the next couple of months there won't be many (if any) unemployed pilots or mtce folks around these parts. I just hope that someday I'm able to return the favour.

Good luck in the job hunting everyone!

Hi All!

Ok, here goes...

Just over 1030 TT, almost 500 PIC, 47 Multi, 13 floats. ATPLs written. 350+ turbine time.

Will consider F.O. position but would prefer PIC on C206 or C208, Navajo or similar. Float gig would be awesome. I'm a hard worker, single, and willing to re-locate anywhere.

PM for further info and resume.

Cheers!

I would be looking for a HO gig (or similar) and get the multi PIC up. Try Lockhart in YXL, you meet all their requirments.
Borek is always looking for good FO's, as is most companies right now. Even fire a resume off to Jazz, you may be called.
If there was ever a good time to get laid off, now is it.

Nor-Alta is looking for King Air guys or gals. Both left and right seat. PPC would be nice but we are more interested in the right person than whether they are PPC'ed. Depending on experience pay on the King Air (Captains) starts at 48k and goes to 66k plus annual bonus. Annual is bonus is $5k year one, $7.5k year two, and $10k year three and every year thereafter. Standard benefits etc...
