This comment isn't specific to Jazz, but I still don't quite understand this general requirement of needing to have a current IFR (other then for obvious reasons relating to IFR flying competency)... I agree. This was my understanding as well.. I’m beginning to think it’s simply a company policy, r...

Perhaps a better question would be does an IFR ever EXPIRE, if you’ve never obtained a type rating? IFR has nothing to do with obtaining a type rating except that for a 705 type rating you need to have an IFR rating. It doesn't need to be current. But you need to have one. The PPC will renew your I...

Any word on a timeline for roadshows and vote open / close date yet?

What I’ve been trying to ascertain through this thread, has been if the IFR actually expires (and training and ride are required), or if all Jazz is looking for is for a pilot candidate (who does not hold a type rating) to simply have completed the 6,6,6 currency requirement?) Lots of opinions, but ...

Maybe they should hire experienced current atpl king air captains which would check off all the basic requirements easily. It’s not for me, for someone just getting started… I was simply wondering if that’s a new rule at Jazz. I’m not entirely sure but I have a question, does the IATRA require a va...

It’s not for me, for someone just getting started… I was simply wondering if that’s a new rule at Jazz. I’m not entirely sure but I have a question, does the IATRA require a valid group one instrument rating? We had a recent issue where a new hire could not do his PPC because of an “expired” IATRA....

It’s not for me, for someone just getting started… I was simply wondering if that’s a new rule at Jazz.

Hypothetically if someone out of flying school (commercial, M-IFR) was building time doing a VFR job for 10-14 mos, and now had 1,000 hrs tt and was hoping to get on at Jazz… (that sort of thing).

I was just asking if this was a recent change, since I had heard of others getting hired in the past after not having flown IFR in a year or two.

Specifically if a candidate was flying VFR exclusively for the last 12 plus months and their Group 1 had expired… at one time an IFR was actually good for 24 mos.

Anyone else experience this? ‘Current Group 1 IFR required BEOFRE getting hired? Is this a thing now? And also: do any other regionals require this?

Does Sunwest still insist on a Training Bond for initial training costs for the Turbo Prop fleet?
Thx

To any of the YYC Q400 FOs out there: are you all flying a full block? (Specifically: Is there a shortage of Captains that is limiting the amount of flying available to FOs like at Encore?)
thanks in advance

How long before Porter opens a YYC pilot base?

Can anyone shed some light on what kind of questions one can expect for the initial video interview at Encore, as well as the main interview?
Also, any tips on the process, and how best to prep for each?
Asking for a friend.
Thanks in advance

Not sure if this has been addressed earlier, but are there any YYC vacancies in the most recent equipment bids for new hires?
Thx

Back to the origin of this tread…
Are there any Q400 vacancies currently/ projected at the YYC base, and is there any hiring for the YYC base in the short term?
Thanks
TP

Anyone know when the next Groundschools for 2023 are slated to be?
As well, what experience level/ where the new candidates are coming from?
Thx

Just wondering how many hours/ month a SAAB pilot (YYC) can expect to log in a month at Pasco? Also what’s the pay scale for FO, as well as min guarantee?
Thanks in advance

I see that there is def ‘shrinkage’ of the RJ base in YYC, but what about the Q?
Is Jazz hiring Q400 FOs for YYC?
