Any mariginal performing twin, piston or turbine can be a handful for an inexperienced crew when one engine fails. With the singles, your hands are tied, decisions are made. You are gliding to a crash. I j...

If Pilots are not happy with Transport Canada and they want a overhaul of the system. why dont we get someone like Widow to organise a Petition for Change. If we get all the pilots signing I...

I have heard that interviews are now taking place in Toronto.
Standard HR questions, as well as cap gen questions and alternate questions are being asked at the interview. I have also heard that the quality of guys getting interviewed is quite high.
good luck with the interviews!!!

Re: Can some one from Ornge in the fixed wing please explain!!!!

I guess your right Conquest about the falling out between Ornge and Aeropersonnel. I can however foresee a big demand for Pc12 captains over the next year or two.

I had information and forms sent to me which I promptly filled out and returned to Aeropersonal. This was a few months ago now and I have met other ...
