Borek/MAR again...

[Thomas Magnum]

Kind of a weird question, but here goes...

I may have an interview coming up in the near future, but I'm just wondering if Borek will want to see a copy of my high school diploma? When I moved from down east a couple of years ago, I left a lot of stuff behind and I'm pretty sure it got thrown out. When I called the Dept. of Education back east they said it would take a while to get me a new one.

Thanks

Definitely meant Borek/MAT not MAR...

[scopiton]

did they ask you to bring it at this interview ?
flight experience seems more inportant to KBAL than high school degrees

[Chuck Ellsworth]

Most companies would be happy to have a pilot who can fly and make good decisions, even if the pilot could barely read and write.

In fact there are lots of examples of the barely able to read and write here on Avcanada.

thanks guys. that's what i thought i won't worry about it then.

they didn't ask me to bring it for the interview scopiton... just curious if they would. i remember a few years ago when i worked ground handling for air canada they made sure i had it.

On behalf of the KBAL semi-literacy guild, I believe I can say the high school diploma has far less importance than a current IFR, floats, and a passport. Bonus for a vacination certificate, and a police report. Might wish to read through the CAP Gen, and a few of the rules about 704 flight and duty times. Logbook, and an extra copy of your resume... have fun.

For those of Cat's generation ...the police report varies greatly from your time. Nowadays this is a report showing you free from criminal activity.

Considering pilots (and AMEs for that matter) all need some sort of a college education, who cares about a high school diploma?

you have to be from ontario.

if you go for your instructor rating that would be the third strike against you (college,ontario,instructor)

The only thing you need to know how to spell is your name when you write it on the top of your multiple choice exam, and it's been a little while but I think they even have the little bubbles for that as well

So pilots who reside in Ontario need not apply to Borek?

[kilpicki]

Yet that is correct.

Yet that is correct.

Well it's not working then half the guys in the Maldives are from Ontario.

[just curious]

We don't actually care where you're from. Just don't wear Edmonton sports regalia while in Calgary. A word to the wise, as it were.

I'd also avoid telling anyone you were ever anything but a flames fan. even though they suck.
