If 5 pilots were let go it’s likely for a valid reason. I find AC is very accommodating as far as employers go. People that need extra help and training generally always get it and more. If one is genuine and honest and making the effort you have nothing to worry about as a new hire or pilot on prob...

You guys are a bunch of dummies!! After taking it on the chin for 20 years, AC pilots finally join ALPA to benefit from all their tremendous resources and knowledge. You elect a number of highly respected peers to lead this profession out of the gutter. They appoint a negotiating committee, who by ...

“Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” Exactly why a NO vote is needed. Break the classic cycle of buying into the fear on the first TA. Wrong climate for ‘good enough’ (which this isn’t). What happened after we voted No last time? The “fear” you speak of is recognizing and ...

“Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”

Ensuring Accountability in Our Vote As we approach the vote, I want to stress that we need to hold each other accountable for the decisions that affect our careers and safety. For those who are openly planning to vote "yes" need to face real consequences. 1. **Deny Jump Seats**: Anyone about to vot...

Read the TA.
Learn from past history.

If you truly feel you deserve and are entitled to more….hold your nose and vote yes. This is a solid building block for the next negotiation which starts in 2.5 years.

This is a yes vote.

I said it from the very beginning that no one should be fooled by all the pretty lanyards. We never were and never will be one cohesive group as some might naively believe. The AC pilot group is a very diverse fraternity made-up of different generations, seniority levels and values. We don’t all thi...

It’s a legitimate question. Obviously the best scenario is that you’ve never done a drug and can simply answer the truth if asked that question. “No I haven’t” However AC and WS are unlikely to blackball you over something you did 5-10 years ago so long as you don’t have a criminal record. What they...

JetsGOs expansion is going to hurt the industry as a whole. Anyone who thinks that JetsGos expansion is a positive (resulting in more pilot jobs) is completely out of touch with reality. The routes which this airline has chosen recently to expand into clearly show it has no business sense at all. Wh...
