Honest question. Does Wasaya and Bearskin pilots bring over their seniority date through the Jazz APP program?

Re: Any news on the fatigue regulations recently?

It is expected that the new regulations will be published in CG2 by the summer with a two year implementation for 705 and a 4 year implementation for everyone else.

That’s from a March briefing from TC.

Re: Air Georgian

Hi, We have a few commuters from the lower mainland and commuter schedules are available on your bid. Reserve is based on seniority and while lower on the list, a pilot could expect 15-18 days. With the movement in the industry, a pilot’s seniority rises quickly and a reserve schedule would likely o...

Re: Air Georgian " hiring under 800TT?"

Sim Evals are fairly straight forward. T/O, hold, engine failure, ILS and landing.

You are paired with another candidate and given an abbreviated SOP as a part of your interview invite.

Sim evaluations are now for RJ candidates as well.

Re: GGN 1900 schedule?

There is that option but it is seniority based bidding. Most of the senior pilots like the shorter pairings.

We do have a large commuter base that like the longer pairings.

Re: GGN 1900 schedule?

Hi,

11 GDOs per month. Pairings are 2-5 days long. Average duty period around 11 hours per day, with some that are longer than 13 hours. Will probably be around 700 flight hours per year.

Re: GGN CRJ Captain

Better get real familiar with the Air start/cross bleed procedure if you want to go fly the RJ there. I think if one was to listen to Toronto Apron frequency 122.07, you would hear Air Canada, Rouge, Sky as well as Georgian all ask to start one at the gate from time to time.......but you never hear...

Re: GGN CRJ Captain

It depends on what your short and long term goals are. If your plan for regional flying is short term before going to a mainline carrier (AC) given that 80% of Air Canada's hiring is coming from Express, a DEC position at AGL might be a better fit for you. If it's over 5 years at regional, Jazz migh...
