Re: The adds are killing this forum
I will that up to our host but running the forum with volunteers is not a cost item, hosting and paying for the internet offering is. I know of one aviation forum in Canada where the host says it costs him around $1000.00 a year to do so in direct costs.

Re: The adds are killing this forum
Amazing how many are upset about the ads and blaming them on greed rather than being necessary to offset the cost of running this forum. Lots of complaints but no offers of $$$$$ to remove the need for the ads. Go Figure.

Re: The adds are killing this forum

Re: How are flight attendants allowed to make less than Min Wage?
Re pay. Since the majority of pilots and FAs are paid according to their union agreements, I guess we can only blame those agreements on why they feel their wages are deficient.

Re: Westjet announced Alexis Von Hoensbroech as new CEO
I wonder how this goes over with the average WestJeter (sic)? Seems that the plum jobs are going to outsiders and indeed to non Canadians or is this not the reality?
