I'm not a loser like you who lives on AvCanada 24/7. I had better shit to do then constantly hit F5 waiting desperately for someone to respond to me. I answered the first time I logged in. I beg to differ. Looking at my profile I have posted .06 posts a day. Looking at yours you have posted .26 pos...

you gonna answer the man? where did you live diadem? or did you just get called out for the liar you are.

Just like some people want to live in Canadian society and will take a lower paid job (globally), you aren't much different as you came back to Canada to stay married. Not much different. We give up some things, in order to have other things. Life is a balance. Money is not everything. Some people ...

Would 6000 hours+ corporate jet time (Challenger, Lear, Sovereign) meet the Captain upgrade requirements at SWG should a vacancy be available? Also, has anyone from the May interviews had references called as of yet? Thanks. Minimum Upgrade Qualifications 6.5.1 To qualify for initial upgrade traini...

I think there's a broad consensus who the "jackass" is here... Not u by any chance? [youtube]https://youtu.be/1C7LKvjr-Bg[/youtube] A sign of true maturity is responding to someone with "no u". It demonstrates a level of complex thought unmatched by us halfwits. And some one who writes 'you' by spe...

and it's inappropriate in a developed nation with a proportionally large industry and supply of labour that is permitted to continue at all. Altiplano, there have been plenty of good points made so far, and you have dismissed them. Your position is so far built in you refuse to see anyone elses poi...

It's an unsustainable business model without circumventing Canadian laws. Make it work year round. 17 year contract? Don't know what you're talking about there, had nothing to do with me, but in my opinion it seems a bunch of kids voted with a plan to leave and sold out the next crop. What laws hav...

Of course it's a problem. It lets a company circumvent our laws to run an unsustainable business model that skims the cherry seasonal flying to the detriment of the companies that only employ pilots with the right to work here, and somehow manage to do it year round. This puts downward pressure on ...

Captain Hourly Rates Step 1 - $103.57 Step 2 - $119.50 Step 3 - $131.46z That is horrible wage. I am 737 FO from Czech Republic, time to time flying here in cooperation between my company and Sunwing, so I am curious about wage scale here in Canada. To be honest I was looking for to stay in Canada ...

Good luck to all who interviewed. Sunwing is truely a gem of Canadian Aviation. With the new type coming on line soon, things are certainly going to get interesting.

The states and europe has the availability for world class training. The aviation market in the US is more than 10 times the size of Canada. As an ex wide body captain, I have worked in 7 countries, and Canada continues to rank far behind all other first world countries in terms of pay and condition...

see if i can go to LA for CPL you'll appreciate the value to you of Canadians employing you, rather than going to LA and spending their money there. I hope you would support Canadian flying schools with the same loyalty. Don't listen to this guy. The weather in Canada will extend your training and ...

But our salaries, of course, will stay the same.

A first year FO will make 40g plus which is 32% more than minimum wage, as well as pension and benefits. Your minimum wage calculator doesn’t take taxes off, you knew that right? Also, drama queen much, what’s criminal about paying what pilots are apparently willing to accept? Please stop trying to...

Take home net pay for Jazz FOs especially on reserve is around $2000 a month. There is an oversupply of FOs on reserve so we rarely get called to fly and basically make no perdiems or overtime pay. When you factor in the average cost of rent for a one bedroom condo in YYZ or YVR being $2000 a month...

If you are looking for a faster upgrade time, sunwing is probably a better place to go. Probably?? What are the upgrade times at WestJet? Sunwing is 49% owned by Tui. A company almost ten times the size of WestJet. I know where I'd place my bets as to who is going to last longer. WestJet seems like...

Well for a long time, I have been getting the "official" annual cost of living index as per our government +1% pay raise every year... Does that help? My insurance company just tried to raise rates by 15% to 'cover cost increases' same as last year. I called them out on it and got only a 5% increas...

Merci mais c’etait pas ma question. Je suis curieux de savoir pourquoi on offre si peu pour le poste. Est ce qu’il y a une conditions spéciale qui démarque ce poste d’un autre à part l’employeur pour justifier de payer si peu dans un marché où les pilotes qualifiés se font rares? I wouldn't say tho...

I did find it funny that a FlyDubai FO is looking for ID travel agreements when they all rave about how much they are paid and great schedules... I would think they can just fly confirmed. Everyone knows fly Dubai work you into the ground. You're home every day is the only benefit. 40 vacation days...
