Re: North Cariboo Air
Yea I heard they're getting Q400s. Those Q400 might come from Augsburg Airways. They ceased operation on 31st of October after their contract concluded with Lufthansa.
Re: North Cariboo Air
How many Qs did Augsburg have? I've heard rumours of them turning up a few different places now.
Re: North Cariboo Air
Augsburg had 8 Qs. All 8 were bought, 2 were sold right away. 6 on the way by end of December, 1 may get parted out or sold. Not sure how many will be actually operated maybe 3 or 4 and others sold or leased out.
Re: North Cariboo Air
Just where the heck are they going to park them all ? Cause the south end of YYC is really starting to look like a real aircraft boneyard.
And is there enough ramp space to operate more Cariboo aircraft ?

Re: North Cariboo Air
Air Partners will be out of their hanger in early December, the ramp and hanger space are Cariboo's. It is going to be tight though.dhc# wrote:Just where the heck are they going to park them all ? Cause the south end of YYC is really starting to look like a real aircraft boneyard.

Re: North Cariboo Air
So now the job(s) ad has been posted for the Q400....says as per company payscale....what exactly is the salary since this is a new type to their fleet ?
Re: North Cariboo Air
Those requirements are Shell, $76k for Captain and $39k for FO. Not sure if Q will be higher pay yet.dhc# wrote:So now the job(s) ad has been posted for the Q400....says as per company payscale....what exactly is the salary since this is a new type to their fleet ?

Yes but how many of those guys are going to be as happy as the guys at NCA if things don't pan out the way everyone's hoping at WJE?Krimson wrote:There are a few more carrots for encore

I don't actually know of anyOk.......how many "type rated" guys went to Encore??
In all seriousness though, I only know about 6 guys that made the move to Encore. Most are F/O's that wanted a quick upgrade to the left seat and two are captains that have dreams of making mainline.
To each their own... It's just my opinion that the resume stack will be a little thin @ 76K.

Re: North Cariboo Air
Does anyone know what kind of flying they will be doing on the Q400?
Re: North Cariboo Air
Same kind of stuff the fleet is doing now. Oil sands and northern BC and Alberta.loopa wrote:Does anyone know what kind of flying they will be doing on the Q400?
Re: North Cariboo Air
Oh ok. Is it more of a replacement of current Dash 8 fleet? Or will the current Dash 8 fleet be kept and fully new crews on the NCA Q400's?whiteguy wrote:Same kind of stuff the fleet is doing now.

It'd be interesting to see who'd be applying with a Q400 type rating right now.
Re: North Cariboo Air
I have always thought NCA would be a great place to work... Is there any truth to the YVR base rumour? If anyone on the board has any insight, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Thanks!
