Plenty of time? Based on what? Stabilization criteria is not based on time, but height. For us, by 1,500 fully configured. 1,000 fully stable. By 500, speed stable (if given a speed by ATC). I don’t know how they operate, but I’ll check, as we have many pilots from their airline now working with us.

When I was up north I didn't see any visible minorities slinging cases of Pepsi with me but when I got to AC half my class was a minority so they must have got their start somewhere. You'll be fine. Since you cracked it, I’ll let you in on a secret. Pilots who are of a visible minority don’t have t...

Someone needs to break it down for me and explain what's the difference between this joint venture and a codeshare.

These are all relationships, so I look at them as such;

- interline: dating
- codeshare: engaged
- JV: married

I wish I could give you an answer. I don’t bother with the kiosk anymore since I always get flagged due to my Canadian passport. Like yourself, I’ll be the only one from the crew who has to visit the customs officer. I’ve been told many different views, but the one that makes most sense is because w...

I would like to know what airline has you on an 11 hour flight with no AP ? That's a lot of fuel burned below RVSM.

Sure,

YYZ - GRU - YYZ, YYZ-SCL-YYZ, YYZ-GIG-YYZ. Been der dun dat with no AT.

AP is required for RVSM, whereas A/THR is not. The above question was with regards to AP no?

If you wanna stay in Canada take whichever gives you a better lifestyle. If you wanna go overseas take the jet job.

Quick - name another airline that fully owns their regional feeder. Look at nearly every airline out there and you'll find a feeder owned by someone else with a CPA. American Airlines: - PSA - Piedmont - Envoy Delta Airlines: - Endeavor Air Alaska Air Group - Horizon Air Air France - HOP! Lufthansa...

Some good advise above, I’ll add a bit more. I’ve done the Canadian path then moved overseas. You have to know what kind of hours will help you overseas. Some airlines don’t care about the real experience that we get in Canada. They just care about jet time. Some prefer right seat RJ time over left ...

Thank you for your thorough, insightful analysis. :lol: Who ever says they’ll be out of cash soon is misinformed. A lot of things can happen in a few months in aviation. They made it past the summer, and they’re going through. They’ve re-assesses their model and hopefully can continue their busines...

To Jack and Complex, Do you think they will ever open up a Canadian base like they have in the US, and hire on the 737/787? Might be wishful thinking but stranger things have happened........ Apologies for the late reply. I don’t check in often. Given their current situation, I highly doubt they wi...

My first day as an F/O the capt showed up stinking of alcohol and pretty rough shape.

PIA?

Perhaps I Arrive

Or

Please Inform Allah

Not a 787 pilot, however I imagine their moving map is similar to the one I use. You can edit the Map, and one of the functions is to insert a Cross on closed runways, taxiways. This serves a few purposes: - something to do while in flight - to remind us after the 12 hour flight which taxiways are c...

No prob.

Norwegian is publicly traded, therefore anyone can access their financial sheets. I’m writing a paper on them now as part of my masters degree. Definitely interesting times ahead for them, specifically Q2 2018. They’re selling planes and leasing them back, they’ve just sold a bunch of shares, and se...

Do NOT question CWE.
He learned how to fly an airbus IN THE FACTORY.

I learned how to fly an Airbus in the factory. Does that make me anymore special?

Which ever law firm you deal with bebupfrint and get them to agree on the price of their services upfront. I've dealt with a lawyer in Winnipeg with regards to a training bond, even though we settled to pay much less than what the company wanted, the lawyer was trying to milk me for everything, inc...

Panama Jack couldn't have said it any better.

To cruise above FL250 (with passengers on board) you are required to have drop down masks. Do you mind quoting a regulation? I can't seem to find it anywhere. 605.31 talks about oxygen available to crew when above FL250, but nothing about drop down masks for passengers. CAR 525.1447 525.1447 Equipm...

He loves cash. I think it's in his DNA

Just show him the money.

I suggest no calls. Keep it quiet in the flight deck. You're doing the scan, you see where the glide is.

But if you insist, it's 1 dot above. You are referring to where you wanna be. I.e. 1 dot ABOVE, you need to go above to capture it (if you are in the descent of course).

From the types I've flown, the metro 23 was not the funnest for 12 leg days with no auto pilot.

After the FAF, they were below the charted altitudes the whole time. Perhaps this could have been caught earlier on and gotten themselves back on the proper path. Don't make it seem trivial the 75' below. The flight path was not once corrected, and they flew the entire final segment below the charte...
