I've gotten several PMs about this as well - I won't be able to provide any firm information on when that will be.

Any idea why January? Just curious if Ornge has any expansion plans or if this is due to projected attrition?

That video was posted one month ago, but I wonder when it was actually filmed? I've heard rumblings about more PC-12's coming but Ornge has been very quiet lately. Hmmmmm

I'm curious, why would they advertise for a vacancy in September, if they have no intention of hiring until January?

So any updates on Ornge? I understand that someone heard January, so does that mean they are hiring for Ground Schools in January? If so calls should be going out pretty soon! Anyone know something concrete?

I guess with the YHM announcement, they need pilots for there new base, or I suppose the northern bases for those southerners who are going to transfer.

Any salary info for F/O's? I see captains are $76k. How about schedule?


Do they send new hires to SIMCOM in Florida or is all the training on the aircraft done out of your base of hire in the actual aircraft?

F/O salaries are 42k year + any overtime you might incur.

So far, everybody has been to SIMCOM, FOs and Capts. But don't quote me on that for the new hires.

About the new hires getting a YHM spot... you can very much kiss that dream good bye :) All the YHM openings will most likely be filled internally, leaving open spots in YTS and YXL most likely.

Well I figured they would probably be the case. Are they hiring F/O's??? There minimums where more along the line for Captain and I don't exactly meet those requirements. Any idea when the HR department is going to start making phone calls?

Um sea-legs, this is AvCanada, not an employment agency. Here rumours start or continue every 30 minutes. By the way you are asking questions, I don't think you have to worry about getting hired. Most employees ask intelligent questions.

Since the medevac business is a little more high pressure, i.e. urgency, weather and remote, poorly maintained locations they want EXPERIENCED pilots to fly their aircraft. :D

anytime! Best of luck to those applying. Couldn't ask for a better place in this industry if you're not looking for heavy metal.

Lost Lake,

You sir, are a very disgruntled and unhappy individual. Most if not all of your posts are pretty negative. I don’t care how long you’ve been in this industry, or how much you sacrificed. I would never want you in my flight deck. I hope your attitude changes one day, especially if you eventually get on with the OMNR….….because you would surely be voted out of the crew house.

Your friend,
a former twin otter pilot
