Re: WestJet Encore applies for LMIA to hire foreign pilot
Everyone is hiring. Porter is running classes now, AC is running classes now, Encore has planes parked due to lack of crews Westjet is running transition classes from Sunwing but that will only be for 3 more months.

Re: how long
Where is Jack Handy these days? Wait, are you using 2 accounts? Is tsgas and tsgarp 2 different people? multiple personalities? Unclear. I am, however, curious about why a guy who has been on here for 16 years with 80-odd posts just overnight becomes a complete and total asshat. boredom, is my guess

Re: how long

Hardly intelligent, subject to strict environmental limits and needs to be watched like a hawk with the pilot spring loaded to do a go-around in the...

Step 1: Convince paying passengers to hop on with no one up front. Step 2: Developing security (I'm not talking steel doors) to keep people from hijacking the tech enroute.

Re: how long
after the first accident did we stop flying all together? or did we analyze it and correct it. during the faze in of this technology, do you think that 1 pilot in the cockpit to monitor systems and step in if necessary. and then talk to the engineering team as to why he stepped in would make sense?
