Not only that, the Transat pilots are basically snapshotted in their seats while laid off and AC is going to run a downbid and keep working. A lot of guys are going to loose their captaincies for a time and that will really hurt our position when it comes to a ‘no bump/flush’ situation. Very valid ...

Sorry as a pilot who did a brief stint as an FA I can tell you that it was a joke of a course, I didnt study and passed no problem. Dont get me wrong they deserve a liveable wage but a nurse probably knows more than me as an airline pilot tbh. Flight attendants like their job because at major airlin...

about three months for me

The late april GS, was almost all OTS. Only 3 jazz, 3-4 sky, 1 GGN, out of 37. I believe 10 from encore, 5-6 porter, a few SWG, and forget the others.(I was in it) Only have college diploma and 5500hrs, a lot of it is pic on multi twin turboprop if that helps.

Flair posting is SAVAGE hahaha

I did not have it certified by any employer...i know dumb...but they asked that i get it certified by all employers except my current one a few days later which I did and I got the job. Comes down to your interview but it can only help to have it done prior to the interview. Goodluck!

WJ pilot costs are 6% while the rest of the industry is sitting between 10-14%, in addition WJ has been profitable how many quarters in a row, constantly having bigger profits...yet some still think we should sit back and let management pay us less for the SAME flying...it really is true, pilots are...

Just got the offer for an April 23rd start date, goodluck to everyone else in the process

As an Encore pilot close to flow i will gladly stay at encore a little while longer to have this swoop nonsense figured out properly as opposed to not fighting for what we ALL deserve. Its a small price to pay to help everyone out in the end as opposed to just myself right now and most likely in the...

🤔 Nope, the math works. We're not talking about just the company's match here. We're talking about the total in the ESP account at the end of the year...roughly $76000 per year if doing full 20% ESP in the example. I guess in your case if you're contributing $43000 then the company matched another ...

His math is wrong, the eesp contribution would be about 43000$ per year not the 76000$ he said, don’t have time to check the rest but I can guarantee you it’s not correct as I work for the conmpany. Not trying to defend it as I am very vocal within the company about how low the wages are but they a...

I feel for you Forcedwhore, im in the same kind of boat. But I agree with the others screaming about it on the forum isnt gonig to solve anything nor is being rude to jazz pilots from now on. I do find it funny how a few jazz pilots were angry at GGN pilots(who actually voted down lowering wages for...

This seems to be the best option for current Jazz pilots, but for the rest of us who arent at encore or Jazz what are we supposed to do now? If AC needs 1000 pilots over the next 10 years only 200 will be outside of Jazz unless they stick to the 498, but that seems weird if the ratio is 80/20. Basic...

He is the systems CP now, the 1900 CP is Tim Crits. As of right now I dont believe there will be a march groundschool and the February one has already started. 1500hrs is still the min, so as long as you have that your chances are pretty good seeing as we will probably be doing a lot of hiring with ...

Theres not much money at the beginning in aviation but seems like a good way to get to the majors and its in larger cities. Not picking at you man, it's just fun and sad at the same time, because even when you seem to get 'somewhere', you get a slap in the face with the new salary experience. Sky R...

The pay isnt great...wouldnt even say good, but for a right seat 1900 position its about industry standard maybe even a little better. In addition it puts you in a great position for AC and WJ and all the regionals. Considering that its most likely one of the best 1900 positions. Theres not much mon...

From another thread: i am about to do a PCC on b-200. Perhaps this is why we have bonds...[/quote] Agreed, people leaving within a couple months of getting a PPC is exactly why we have bonds, if we stayed at each company for 9 months to a year you wouldn't see as many bonds...and once theres a highe...

They want 1500hrs, also whats your PIC time at? They like to see decent PIC so you can upgrade as that can happen quickly. Lastly two crew time is helpful there but looks like you have some so thats a plus...you should apply and odds are once you hit 1500hrs you'll have a decent chance of getting an...

Any of the recent hires remember any of the questions from the interview or can tell me what the psych and cog tests were like?

PM me if you want
