Re: Foreign Pilots in China being sent home?
Sad thing is in Canada the Expats will be the last to go as it would offend the liberal left.

Re: SWOOP OTS Captains punted from left seat...
I see Tablyx is still on westnet!?
Are westjet pilots who are at swoop wearing the WJ uniform or swoop shirt. Saw a Facebook a guy wearing his WJ uniform there. Kudos and proud if that’s the case.

Re: How's morale with uncertainty of the one list?
Sounds like the one list is alive and well. Westjet and Encore MECs agreed on the original intent of the one list and are presenting it to the company as an LOU which will then go to a vote at each pilot group before it is implemented. And some good news for WeedPro: “This document has been legally ...

Re: SWOOP OTS Captains punted from left seat...
Pay protection is a Pay Freeze. You are protected from not having to start at year 1 Swoop FO rate of $55ish per hour. That is it. For example if the current WJ pay scales were to stay the same as they are today, in 5 years you’d be eligible for your first pay increase above your current $103hr as 6...

Re: WestJet pilots to fly Swoop aircraft
Just to clarify are these 6 westjet pilots who were awarded bypass positions and have now quit to fly for sunwing? Or 6 OTS original swoop pilots quit for sunwing?

Re: WestJet pilots to fly Swoop aircraft
Why are there 6 more “bypass” positions in YHM? Does that mean in YHM there will be 23 OUT OF SENORITY pilots occupying the left seat, plus 23 bypass pilots from the June bid. Plus 6 more now?

Re: How did it work out?
No one wants to work st swoop because they don’t want to be mistaken for being part of the dirty thirty. Easily resolved to satisfy 2000+ pilots vs 24.

Re: Westjet mainline commuting
Exactly. I read the EVP job ads andjydt want to yell enough of the bullsh!t. Turn a new direction. Cost cutting has destroyed the company and cost so much!! Own up to past mistakes and start fresh.

Re: Clive Bedoe plea to pilots video
It’s actually from Nov 2013 during the lead up to the vote for Version 1 of the industry leading concessionary TA the WJPA presented. It was shown after a Webcast with GGG.
I’ve heard the original copy CB wanted shown was much worse and this was the severely toned down version.
