Hi Gang! Question for the AS guys: I'm on the home stretch of a career in high tech (software dev, enterprise ops with about 12 years in management). I've owned a plane for a while and now instruct part time. I'm looking at wrapping up this career when I'm 52 in a few years. I'm wondering if you ha...

Have a few questions. Are there only a couple of pilots based in Winnipeg? Does that base grow very slowly? Also when it comes to being based there, would it be quite expected to spend the whole time of your rotation gone or would there be possibilities of returning back in the middle or some reser...

Hi, I've reviewed the Pilot Career guide but wondering how many actual flying days per block approx. can an FO & a Capt expect based out of YUL, say on a 16/12 schedule? Are most reserve days call-outs? Are single day & two day pairings common for the YUL base? Is a year realistic wait for an upgra...

Hello Reviewing the Pilot Career Guide, 4000 hours is the minimum for a DEC. Is that a hard number? Not many people with 4000 hours in the corporate world looking to get on a CJ2/CJ3, and not flying heavy metal already. Are there opportunities with lower hours but relevant corporate PIC experience ...

My real question is why do you only hire applicants who have a referral from within your organization? Hey Dustyroads, We do love internal referrals for sure. That said, we are currently hiring between 4 and 8 pilots a month and a good number don’t come with internal referrals. If you’ve applied an...
