Re: De-icing

It just seems like going without type 4 on a day like that just means a mandatory inspection before take-off (because the 6 minutes would be up) and a probable return to the CDF, as type 1 is quit useless as a anti-ice... I agree that they would have been better off not to spray at all. Thats what I...

De-icing

Just wondering how WestJetters decide when to use type 4. I was in Yul a few days back and we went to the pad for a spray and got type 1 and 4. A WestJet airplane was in the bay beside us and they took only type 1 after being questionned repeatedly by Aeromag.(not that Aeromag questionning means any...

PBS

Hey, Anyone out there commuting and know how to get a good schedule out of PBS? I am looking to work blocks of days (maybe 7 on, 7 off). Would prefer higher credit stuff, and really don't care what kind of flying I do while I am at work. I think I sit somewhere around 70% on the Emj yyz list. If any...

Re: oops

When you come in on the approach for 19 you end up lined up with 15 and have to make a fairly tight turn to final to stay out of some serious restricted airspace. Not a very pilot friendly airport. Fun once you've been there a few times though.

Actually after 2 years you make $49.50 an hour, which is more like $49000 a year, Good benefits, good pension. You are guaranteed 12 days off a month with a pretty flexible schedule (depends on what you bid) but from the beginning I got at least 14 days off a month. When I left after 2 years I was w...

If the ERJ doesn't have ozone scrubbers it would be altitude restricted like the CRJ is. I don't believe they are altitude restricted.

There is probably as much difference between 900-1500 hrs as there is 1500-4000 hrs. You learn alot in your first 2000 hrs... But you'll also learn alot from each new position (job) you get.

Thanks guys, That was how I was reading and applying the rule. Thought I might have missed something though. I guess I will have to call crew sked and see what they want to do.

Time free from duty...?

Just wondering, in relation to the CAR's 700.19(1)(a), can you legally work 8 days on, 36 hrs off, 4 days on, 36 hrs off and then 2 days on? I thought if you didn't get 36 hrs off within 7 then they had to give you 3 consecutive days off with 17 days.... Or am I just reading that wrong?

Thanks

Hey TBone,

I fail the plate test every time I do it. I did the AC medical and failed it again. They got me to do the puck test (passed no problem) and I already had a letter from my optometrist saying I had passed both his tests. They said no problem.

Hope that helps.

Good Luck

Cheap Hotel Near YYZ

Just wondering if someone knows about any cheap hotels near YYZ for AC or JAZZ pilots. I need a room for a night and don't want to spend $100.00.

I've heard about rooms for about $50.00, anyone know anything about that? Which hotels? Do they have a shuttle (free?)?



Thanks

I think you need an aviation college diploma or a degree to get into AC right now. If that is what your goal is maybe you should think twice about it. Two things to think off. You can get the diploma, your instructor rating and things crap out for 5 years, your stuck getting all your time on single ...
