Re: Pilot work permit sponsorship

There is no foreign pilot sponsorship at Porter, it’s simply not needed. Now are there pilots on work permits at Porter? Yes but they’ve all obtained them on their own.

Re: EB2 NIW Visa

It’s bullocks. I haven’t had issues entering the US after being denied the I-140. Applying for any US Visa is not just a risk of being denied , but once denied you have effectively registered yourself as having Immigrant intent and the system then looks as to how to keep you from ever crossing the b...

Re: EB2 NIW Visa

I went with Harvey and was not successful. 7000 hours, mix of jet and turboprop PIC, wide body experience, instructor, degree, FAA ATP , 10 years of experience. It very much is a crap shoot based on the ones I know that have been denied and the ones I know that have been successful with only FO expe...

Re: New pay scales

Not sure who was spreading the $180k rumour but I had several folks message me privately last night asking to confirm. It sounds great but there isn't anything I've seen internally that would substantiate that.

Re: All you underpaid airline pilots...

I agree it shouldn’t be a TN visa. Have a look at their ad though. TN visa is stated on the bottom. I guess I’ll find out soon when I hear yay or nay. https://pilotsdb.brookfieldav.com/job/00660/A320-NTR-TR-First-Officers-to-work-in-the-US----7-650-USD-P-M Has anyone done the interview and want to d...

I worked overseas as well. Start getting criminal background checks from all the countries you’ve resided in for the last 5 years. They will want those docs when you apply for your temp pass now. I'm currently flying a large multi turbo prop in a scheduled pax operation as an FO outside Canada. I'd ...

Re: A320 Type rating

Its pretty straightforward to add a foreign type rating on your license.
You need to fill out the paperwork for TC, also need a copy of your flight test report, or logbook showing 50 hours on type, and $30 for the TC fee. It took a long time to get it, about 3 months I believe.

Re: Swoop offering yearly bonuses?

I know quite a number of good people who are now working at swoop and count a number of them as friends. Friends with families to support and who applied for a job at an airline that was advertised. If I hear of any blacklisting or agressive tactics against these pilots, you can bet the last time a...

With Westjet for example, you just have to call the number to make a booking and show your company ID, no access to MyIDTravel is required. Not correct.

Re: Sky Regional

Don't think that is entirely correct. You likely won't have Air Canada passes for the first 6 months, but reciprocal jumpseat is available right away. With Westjet for example, you just have to call the number to make a booking and show your company ID, no access to MyIDTravel is required.
