Any ideas on weather or not this fly past 60 business is gonna go anywhere?

How would this affect hiring if these guys all came back out of the woodwork looking for another few years at the top of the pile?

I was just wondering if anyone else out there just sucks like I do? I have a degree, numerous internal references (including family), am under 30, have almost 6000 hours of which almost all is PIC with about a 1000 of that jet PIC and have been aspiring to work at AC my whole life. Then after a 25 m...

Any info on a rumour that they may be down to one class per month now and the next one may not be full due to lack of sim slots.

Any ideas of how many would be in their hiring pool now?

Does anyone have any info on Air Canada's per diem. Does your per diem rate depend on the aircraft you fly?

BA should pay more have you seen the cost of living in the UK?

Would someone be able to shed some light onto what the pay group is and how it works? Is it just a lower salary for the "regional aircraft" or is it more complicated than that?

Can $37000 be correct to start? I made more than that flying a cheyenne around northern Ontario!

Seems to be a lot of confusion as to what new hires at AC will be paid would anyone be able to post some accurate numbers?

I think Skyservice has the largest corporate flight department in the country now. Starting psotions are on Jetstream, King Air 350 and Lear 35 but you can progress right up to a G4 or Challenger 604 within the company.

I Believe Blue Spruce routes are any random track over the North Atlantic with is not part of the NAT system of organized tracks.

It is indeed an Op. spec. that can be applied to an AOC but you require a type A or B dispatch to operate under it which usually leaves only the airlines that can actually use it.

N.G.

Just heard through the grapevine that the former owner of LINVIC Flying Club in Lindsay, ON had retired from Air Canada at the end of April, and wanted to congratulate him on his achievement. I was there for a couple of years and for school in a small town it gave a big group of us our start in this...

Is 5680 an Emergency frequency or are you able to get radio checks on it?

Does anybody know a good way of getting a two way HF radio check in the Toronto area, to see if our HF works before we depart home base?

Does any one know if Transport can certify the times in a personal logbook? Or would it have to be a company you worked for.

Thanks

Anyone out there know where I can find info on Cathay personnel such as Chief Pilot Boeing / Airbus, Manager of Flying Boeing / Airbus how many pilots they have etc.

Thanks

I would hardly call $51700 great pay for an international jet captain.

Especially when Georgian guys are getting that driving a 1900 back and forth to Sarnia with Air Canada benefits.

Every time CGAA comes up nobody mentions Skyservice Lifeguard, I've heard that they work just as many hours for similar crappy pay in really old machines and with the added bonus of no chance of working for one of the only decent airlines left in Canada ( Skyservice Airlines ). Just wondering why th...

O.K. so say as a Part 121 carrier you cannot make the 300' per NM to 11000ft on one engine but you can on two. The airport has an obstacle departure proceedure published, as Vegas does http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0501/SW4TO.PDF (you have to go down to page 3) can this procedure i.e. DEPARTURE PROCEDUR...

Here’s hoping someone can clarify this for me. On a departure SID like the COWBY1 in Las Vegas http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0501/00662COWBY.PDF The take-off minimums of 300’ per NM to 11000ft for Runways 19L/R & 25L/R does anyone know if this rate of climb needs to be maintained on one engine in the ev...
