Re: The Taxi Time Poll

Re: Any AC guys thinking of making the switch?

Poor form man. AC is in financial problems is nothing new. The idea that anyone who works in this industry wants to see anyone else out of work saddens me. They will be fine, restructuring and a little more time and it will be as it was before. The national carrier is not going anywhere.

Re: WestJet Regional - WestJet Encore

Hey Darkwing. I hear it is a contract year for lunch ladies at your flying college. Take a bit of time and consider that it means as much to a guy working day to day at an airline as it does any of the other of the many contract negotiations out there.

Actually, the call sign isn't really reqired. The shortest method would be " I am at this height and i am here" After all who will really care what your ident is if you are going to be in conflict.

The aviation market in BC ten years ago was a damn sight bigger than today. Of the companies that were in operation, few exist anymore. Anyone remember Waglisla or Awood?

We will even bend the rules when the term "medevac" is used. It isn't until we look at our decisions in h...

I gotta say guys... I have seen a lot of descent planning. 3x alt or 2x alt + 10nm works well in most jets. Yes vnav works too...
