Re: So how actually is at the other side of the fence?

The lack of Accountability and how steak dinners are still being grilled up on the back of junior pilots is shocking. It's a lot more than steak dinners. 90 hrs at captain pay plus thousands in monthly per diems (lot more than what the peasants are getting) All the changes and union leadership vote...

Re: Why all the gnashing of teeth??

We all know that ACPA would have presented that 30% raise contract as the best they could do, ALPA brought it up to 42%. So no they are not the same. FYI 1.8% is tax deductible so if your upper tax bracket is Captain wages you are paying 0.9% or less- a 0.4% increase from ACPA if I'm not mistaken I...

Re: Pilot unity will get results

Do you ever wonder why you don't get to have good things? This is why. You clearly don't understand this process or how unions work. Your MEC chair didn't decide this. Your NC reported to the status reps that your TA is, in their opinion, the best they can achieve. Maybe they're right, maybe they'r...

Re: AC vs Delta wages (CAD converted)

I love this discussion...

So riddle me this. Should the CDN peso rise in value (like in 2011 when the $CDN peso > $USD), in the future should the canadian pilots take a pay cut in their Collective Agreement?

Why all the gnashing of teeth??

So if I understand this correctly, this movement began in the late 2010s, crystallized in the 2020s with the P4C group. That group slowly pushed their agenda and eventually the movement grew into "let's get rid of ACPA" because ACPA was the root of all evil in the pilot CA. A campaign was started an...

Re: Who to use as a job reference at AC?

Unless you are personal friends with a pilot manager and they know you well, all they will say is, "Capt X worked at air canada from 2012-2024." They will not comment on anything else...otherwise they may get into trouble. So in the end, it's not much of an endorsement if that's what you're looking ...

MEC pay

Wow....after all the bellyaching and whinging and gnashing of teeth about the old MEC, the current MEC decides to pay itself 85 hrs per month (with room to grow maybe up to 98 hrs), to align itself with the ALPA norm...because the MEC work doesn't vary month to month.... the hypocrisy is unbelievable.

Same at every other American major. Prove that...you know you can...
