I've heard the Jan 2024 seniority list will only show a change, on average, of 88 numbers.

The plan is to build more bays....

Upper management.

Upper management? So the VP of flight ops told you that?

Yes

Current failure rates on the Command Sims are 80% - due in no small part to the relative lack of experience of the people attempting the upgrade.

Very doable. YYC is the largest commuter base in the mainline system by a long shot so I wouldn't sweat it. Lots of people do it. Just plan your travel to give yourself 2-3 flights and also you have WJA if you need.

Ask any of the AC Doc's how many guys have been seeing specialists for tesicular pain since the new pants came out.......Lots.......

Bye Felicia...

16 days is max on the narrowbody (320 with 737 to come this fall). Even as a junior blockholder there are still lots of YYC layovers so you can probably count on a few YYC layovers mid-pairing during the month to offset the 16 days. There is no days worked limit on the WB but another option is 787 R...

There are close to 300 commuters that live in/around YYC - split between YVR and YYZ so you won't be alone. YVR is easy (for the most part) because we run almost hourly plus you'll have access to the jumpseats (FD and FA) during busy times. 1 hour flight plus you gain an hour. Even junior (except be...

Thanks. I look forward to any additional information you're willing to share, and will check my PM's more frequently. Thank you for your candour.

Thank you so much for the PM. I've tried to PM you back with some more questions but I'm not having success getting it out of my outbox. If in the next few days you don't see my response, please let me know.

Thank you again...it means a lot.

Are you aware of a fatal accident on October 31st, 1971 that happened in/around this area? Been trying to find out information on it and I've heard some talk that the operator was either "Severn Airways" or in/around that part of the world - Severn Lake etc but I can't be sure. Pilot and passengers ...

Bump - funeral is this afternoon....

Here's the link to the live webcast for those that can't make it....

The ONLY reason GPS is being put in the baby Bus is because of Halifax. It's all about the cash - no problem outfitting the fleet with gogo wifi because it'll be another source of ancillary revenue, but spend money on safety?? C'mon, we all know where the priority lies.......

There will be a great deal of poaching happening soon. Are you speaking of the rumour of ACPA proposing to the Company that they offer signing bonuses to WJA (or SW/AT) pilots who are typed on the 737 so it fast tracks the entry of the MAX at Mainline next year? This comment speaks to a complete la...

Can some one clarify for me if the pilot was a retired RCMP Air Services Pilot, or an RCMP Officer who also happened to fly? The reports make it seem like he was a pilot on the side (not air services) and that he took on "commercial" flying after he retired - but it's not clear. Looking for clarific...

I think they have a 2 year training bond for the 737 but can't confirm. That info is a few years old.

So loss after loss after loss, including now from the SCC who has said it won't even hear the case (plus costs to AC/ACPA), and you're thinking it's not over. You're starting to sound like the Air Ontario gang.

Let it go Elsa, let it go.

This is where you keep getting it wrong - it's was and is a negotiated retirement age, not a mandatory one. But really - I know you only see things for the way you want to see them, but no one forced it on us - it's negotiated. Besides, don't you have other things to worry about? You've lost the las...
