If I had to live in a Canadian city, I would prefer to live and work in a European city. It's better organized IMO. If you prefer to live outside of cities, and take advantage of what Canada has to offer (space to do stuff, go prairies), then there's not much appeal to working in Europe I have spen...

Any ideas as to what's boosting AC.TO? I see we reset our 52 week high. I've heard speculation that the market seems to know who the next CEO is going to be but I can't find anything on google. Oil, war, labor stability with the majority of contracts under TA's, all of the above? If I may from a cu...

While it wasnt a good look for AC in the eyes of the public. The news cycle has already moved on from this. Didn't even last a hot minute. It was the lead story INTERNATIONALLY when it broke. The raging debate with continue with his court appearance and then it’ll be closely followed if it goes to ...

What is for certain, this issue is a PR nightmare for AC and will continue to be going forward as criminal charges are brought before the Courts. AC itself desperately wants this bizarre episode to go away but the legal process would prevent that, combined with keen media attention undoubtedly. Avia...

I’m having a hard time believing that transport canada records showed he only had a cpl and he was getting away with it all these years. I think it’s far more likely he was issued an ATPL when he shouldn’t have been and transport finally discovered it. Same here. there has to be to many checks and ...

No doubt. Taking it further this guy's chances for employment at another airline here in Canada is probably very slim to none.

Fascinating. How about some specific, credible detail as to why. Sure… that now defunct COVID sub forum that populated this site for a number of years. There were definitely some flat earth society members and fellow conspiracy theorists who made that forum their home base with over the top drivel....

I love everything about this thread, from the way it was bizarrely dredged up, to the way that if you replace "Climate change" with "Round" it would read exactly like something on a flat earth forum. Try it, it's fun! It is the considered opinion of many who I communicate with behind the curtain, t...

Looks like Spirit is bankrupt. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cqxlnrqjvzyo More bankruptcies to come - jmho. Hopefully not, however I suspect you may be correct.Especially the ULCC airline model who are barely treading water in the pool of insolvency, unfortunately some will undoubtedly sink. Re...

I've had to reject takeoff before because non-sticking snow didn't have enough time to completely blow off. Only the top layer blows off first and if the snow is thick enough the takeoff run won't be enough time for it to all blow off. Yes, exactly. Or certain parts of the airframe heat up on the g...

As per his usual, he no doubt stiffed people during that bankruptcy.

“ although there were very few with Harper” Yeah… just fighting with the Supreme Court to remove election donor caps so his cronies could buy elections. Fighting with the Supreme Court to keep a Canadian citizen extrajudicially incarcerated without charges or trial. Fighting with the Supreme Court ...

Old Fella, thanks. I give credit to our Flight Attendants, they usually do a great job, and are the face/ambassadors of the airline. Still, the onboard product can be better. And good news, there is onboard improvments coming later this year and next.” Hey 330heavy Just to reiterate on my comment re...

After updating my last post, I thought I would re-visit a little history with a thread from another forum..... https://www.pprune.org/canada/203076-air-transat-hiring-pilots.html Meanwhile.......If the CEO of Air Canada is out on his ass......what are your chances at AT in a slow hiring environment...

That's just horrific to watch, to see the level of damage that occurred to the forward end of the aircraft in such graphic detail. The photos that came out were bad enough, but that video is awful to see. Very much so, horrific and quite disturbing to look at that CCTV vid clip of two undoubtedly w...

I want to say around mid 2023 Yeah, my buddy just got hired he interviewed last July and just got the call. Slow process rn. I couldn't tell you how long base transfers will take but its been up and down in the last couple years. In the grand scheme of things it won't be long. Still a decent amount...

From the report ... "The captain was hired by Northwestern Air Lease on 01 December 2022. He obtained his type rating on the Jetstream series 3200 on 22 December 2022. In addition to his Jetstream series 3200 type rating, the captain also held ratings on the Jetstream 3100, Convair 580, Lockheed L-...

The FO, untill that point, was doing his job. I don't think either pilot was doing their job. The question is "why?". Dysfunctional crew. The Captain himself had type endorsements on large transport category aircraft up to and including L-1011 so knew the concept of multi crew performance requireme...

Juan sums up the prelim well. These guys were amateurs. I don't believe they even consulted HOT tables. If they did, they had no idea what they were looking at. Horrible decision making and knowledge base. Nevermind the so called flying "skills". Amateurs. https://youtu.be/HK2uhj6AABI?si=x8ZcWZ1gDb...

As anticipated and no doubt expected there is civil litigation ongoing. If it ever gets to court proceedings there will no doubt be a Human Resources element stance presented.

Edit: The 5th and 6th paragraphs from cncpc later post is startling to say the least.

The reductions in flying was expected as the completion of phase one of the LNG project in Northern BC was known years ago, ask anyone in the oil patch. They've been looking/bidding on for new work for a long time. Also, the NWT diamond mines are o the final leg, thought I read other week the Diavi...

It's almost like "pdw" wrote this TSB report. Haven't read is yet. But I did warn TSB Tasker a few years back to do his best to ensure that the TSB did not do diversity hiring that would lower safety standards of accident reporting and therefore, aviation safety overall. I doubt that the TSB, as mo...

"I wonder who that could be" and look who popped up. I called you weak, not soft. Soft would be a lesser insult. Ah my friend…. I was there those decades, got the inside line I dare say. Life was unfair then believe me but I survived. Music was great though… Joplin, Slick, Morrison, Garcia, Hendrix...
