It all depends how much low time we're talking about. I heard a rumours that SkyService was looking for LearJet co-jo with somewhere around 1000hrs tt.

Pascan hires low time, and I think Nolinor hires ramp and Dx guys with low time (not sure about that one). Other than that to fly out of YUL you need some time, and need to speak French.

Cal,

Considering the owner, DFO and chief pilote are not bi-lingual, I would venture a gess: No. but don't quote me ;-)

LOL, if they don't like you they will say you need it, if you're their buddy, they'll turn a blind eye to it...

I was told from those in the know to expect about two years, possibly two and a half working in dispatch before you got a shot at a pilot position.
