Do you answer every application whether it's positive or negative? if so, what would be your current timeframe for application treatment?

Many thanks.

Re: Will Jazz try the TFW route?

Depends if Encore has any success with the program 1. Who wants to come to Canada and fly a regional pilot schedule for 120 grand/yr? Will they even have many foreign applicants? 2. Is it worth really pissing off the union and the pilot group? 3. Does the Jazz CBA even allow it? Foreign workers don...

Re: Encore hiring Foreign Workers??

Ok. Well more than 40 million Canadians and we need to bring a foreigner? This is so disrespectful.

Please shed some light bro. The questions are ridiculous, it’s a bush operation, you seem to have an expectation it’s a typical 705 operation, good luck with that brah!

Re: Midair at DCA

The thing about the US ATC is that they tend to simplify things a lot. How could they instruct the helicopter to pass behind AA at night, the helicopter crew could've thought that the traffic in question has passed already, it's quite a busy airspace. Huh? Canadian ATC will also tell you to pass be...
