I watch the employment page pretty much daily. Not looking for a job, but I find it's a good barometer for the job market.

The last couple days had job ads on page 2 on their second day. Not a whole lot of exposure for these people anymore as the jobs don't sit on page 1 for months on end.

Hi there, can someone give me a list of all the 1900 operators in Canada? Pacific Costal Georgian EVAS Skylink CMA North-Wright Airways Execaire (Canadian Company, planes in Africa) Provincial Airlines (PAL) Wasaya Alkan North Caribou Sunwest Transwest Westwind Carson Chrono Skynet MG PropAir Ken B...

First year captain working 110hrs per month would get $73,548/year gross based on a typical EVAS schedule with no picking up shifts. Or you could live a 3-hours drive away in YYT and make $80k/year flying 850 hours a year as a Dash captain... Or for the YHZ based, stay YHZ based and make $70k/year ...

What does the straight time mean? Salary/1200? Straight time is the salary in the above grid divided by 1200 to obtain an hourly rate. 84 hrs / month are included in the salary rate. If you work 110 (typical at EVAS) you get paid...... your monthly salary/12 + your salary/1200x26. First year captai...

Who even stays there? With only 10 GDOs and that salary, you'll make more by commuting and paying for hotels and still have more free time and money every month! 2 types of people stay at EVAS. Newfies that want to live in Central Newfoundland, and people they have but the short and curlies due to ...

Profitable? We must be reading different financial reports. Airline "profitable" 😁😅, losing 35ish million ain't bad for an airline in a fleet acquistion year, plus economical turmoil south of the border and poor USD/CAD performance. May'be it's time they rebrand or restructure, getting sucked into ...

So in a nutshell, what more did you get out of the White's? 6 paid days for Union representation 8 paid days for bargaining union members $10 per day per pilot that the schedule is late GDO's 0-1 year - 10 1-3 years - 11 3-5 years - 12 5+ - 13 GDO's can only be changed with consent of pilot Change ...

As the title says... Where are the low timers going?

Likely to the local Loblaws. There is very little movement at the moment. I'm an example, 6000+ hrs king air captain trying to land 705 position.

You’re a lightweight

No, no. He's a featherweight. And a troll.

This has always been a concern for me amongst many regarding AC and why I've remained firmly on the sidelines. I grew up believing that AC was the be-all-end-all of Canadian aviation (thanks to stubborn family in the game - but that would also be pot calling the kettle...). The more you listen, the...

I would not say it is fun to work at Air Canada, as a pilot. It can be fun, at times, but for the most part it is a grind. We work very, very hard and I think this is why many focus on the money. That said, I have my life away from work and wouldn’t really want the 2,3,4-day layovers away from my f...

This is your first post? Hi Pat, or Jeff or Florence, maybe Ian or Ron? Give me a break. No one, literally no one has ever uttered those words at EVAS. Feeling the pressure much? Calling people in the the office individually to see who your scabs will be? Threatening people with the "You will never...

Anyone dealt with Teri Childs at PAL aerospace for position ? Yes PAL aerospace must be hard up for a chief to put her in the chief position. Super difficult to deal with and not qualified in my opinion. You had a completely different experience than me. As usual. I think you need to look at the co...

Yes

To hear these things being said about this company is unbelievable to say the least. I have worked for the company for a while and i am more then happy to have the opportunity to get my flight time and be able to go home to my own bed at night. The company has treated me with the up most respect an...

The other thing whoever is currently looking at this no one on here knows any facts about AC and Evas's current involvement so stop spreading your tho...

Pasco is looking for Captains and FOs. They were offering bonuses in the last version of the job add but not this one. CMA also seem to be looking for Captains and FOs for all of their machines. Looks like the pilot shortage is working its way into the smaller operators as AC hires 500/yr! I imagin...

Hi all, I'm in an unfortunate position as I'll have to leave Canada to wait for my Permanent Residence (6-8 months). I currently have 700tt, 270 on floats & over 100 turbine in the DHC8. Looks like I'll have to pay out my DHC8 PPC bond and look elsewhere abroad for work until I can legally work in ...

If you want any sort of life outside of work - I would avoid Encore entirely. The guys that left there have ZERO positive things to say about the place. You will be worked to the max almost all the time, and your duty days will almost always be unnecessarily high in hours (not flight time). Encore’...

Someone forgot to cover up the green zinc chromate primer on the bottom. That was dumb!!!!

There hasn’t been a better time to get into Aviation! Just scroll through the Job Ads. I’ve been flying since 1995... I’ve never seen a demand for pilots like there is today. Go get your private and commercial as quick as you can. Go at it full time if you can afford to. No demand from 705 operator...

Looks like moderators deleted entire thread on the demise of GGN. Guess GGN is still the number 1 paying advertiser. Let’s see if they delete a link to an article from one of the largest Canadian daily newspapers (FYI - it is called journalism). Also known as facts. https://nationalpost.com/news/re...
