Re: Metro 3 ( dangerous as they say it is )
I mean to say that they lack experience. What does a typical Metro FO have today? 250 hours? Not even enough PIC to get PICUS. What does a typical Metro captain have? 1500 hours? Maybe less if it's run 703 or cargo? So an FO that doesn't know what he doesn't know and is mostly along for the ride; an...

Re: Metro 3 ( dangerous as they say it is )
I spoke with a young guy years back that was an RCAF pilot. He left the military and went to the commercial side. He said there is one thing that compares the Metro to a fighter jet. You CANNOT let the plane get ahead of you it will kill you. The beauty of the F18 is you can eject. You have to ride ...

Re: Jet stream down
Truly amazes me how insensitive people are on this forum. Not even 24 hours and people are being armchair investigators.
Makes me sick.

Don't get me wrong i have nothing but respect for these guys. Let's not forget they picked this job and get trained and paid to do it. Just like Police getting shot at and going into buildings wondering if someone will take them out. Firefighters that go into burning structures to rescue people. Th...

Re: Not paying a bond
Pay the Bond. The reason there are Bonds is because not many people are good for their word or handshake. I have seen to may people looking to snake their way out of bonds when a better offer comes up. I have a hard time believing you only put your resume out there cause things slowed down. Sounds ...

Re: ATC Failure - Alaska Airlines - Horrible ATC service
Maybe they didn't use Mayday because they didn't see the situation as being life threatening. The recording i heard was the pilot stating they depressurized. What does Mayday stand for? Mayday is the word used around the world to make a distress call via radio communications. Mayday signals a life-t...

One think if there was fire there was fuel. Never seen a fire without a combustable feeling it.

Re: RCMP crash
They literally just crashed their PC12, and you are asking about pay and working conditions on their accident thread??? I am really happy to hear the Pilot survived. The pictures don’t look good.
