Re: Nolinor is offering to pay for pilot training

I have to admit that I don't know much about Nolinor, in the article there is not a word on working conditions, salary and bond. Hopefully someone in here will be able to provide more informations.

Re: Air Transat YOW

A quote from a cbc article. The agency found that pilots had too much power over how the situation was handled and it resulted in the violation of the airline's tariff, or agreement with passenge Amazing, this is simply amazing, what a load of c**p. Soon, pilots will have to ask permission to enter ...

Supply and demand

We all know that US regulations were tightened few years ago and pilots are now required 1500 hours to fly in the regional and the mainline. It has taken a few years but supply and demand is changing, because no ones wants to waste their next five to seven years into extreme poverty, and now we see ...

Re: Survey for Canadian CPL and ATPL

The questions are hilarious! You missed the one asking "Do pilots deserve to be paid more money, be more respected by the public, or both? (You may give more than one answer.)" Certainly the answers to these questions will be accepted as reliable factual evidence both by Transport Canada and employ...

Re: Pilot Shortage - New Slant

The problem is how to pass your message along to the elected politicians without paying 300000$ for a lobby. Marc Garneau isn't reading avcanada. In the US they have ALPA, a superpower that is lobbying for pilots aggressively. In Canada, lol, we have union leaders who are probably playing ping-pong ...

What a useless Union, with respect to airline operations.

Teamster is almost a fraud, UNIFOR takes the money but has ZERO expertise for pilots and ALPA doesn't get involved if it is too small.

To get a RAIC, they have to investigate you and it takes months, not just for your first aplication but also for a mere renewall. That is if you are Canadian. I had mine within a week for my initial, and a couple of days for my renewal. There could be delays if you're a landed immigrant because the...

Re: Manque de capitaines de le 3e niveau?

Avec les listes d'attentes et nouvelles échelles salariales je pense que ceux qui gagne 100000$ ou 80000$ par année vont y penser deux fois.

La pilotes qui ont 1000 hrs avec un peu de multi ça peut valoir le coup d'aller chercher ailleurs que au Quebec, il y a de l'argent décent à faire ailleurs.
