Re: Cargo TA
Surplus list...so you enjoy getting paid while doing zero work. And hustling on the side. Good job on VPFO for promoting socialist zealots like you. Fyi, Flair and swoop are paying all their pilots...on CEWS. Higher than us furloughed pilots which are getting zero. Get your facts straight. Guess it...

How to get rid of ACPA?
Everyday, I become more and more disappointed with ACPA. Everyday, I read on the Pilot forum or the numerous other forums embedded in the AC Pilot group that ACPA has to go....I wholeheartedly agree! But the question is, how the hell does the Pilot group go about doing so? I haven’t the slightest cl...

Re: Did ACPA MEC vote themselves a raise while others are laid-off?
All of us have taken cuts, but we've also been working less, most of us much, much less. If the Union Reps are working 110% of their pre-covid duties you could make the argument that they don't deserve to take a cut. That said, this fails the taste test as it leaves a bad taste in your mouth. At th...

Re: Did ACPA MEC vote themselves a raise while others are laid-off?
Absolutely disgusting, whatever happened to a Union that would fight tooth and nail for its members. All we have is an old boys club slowly sucking the life out of the pilot group. I’m a 5th year NB F/O working 15 days this month making barely enough to pay the bills.

Re: 220 Pilots, what are you thoughts so far??
I fly it, it definitely has some issues. First it is not an Airbus, not even close. It feels very small, like a biz jet, even though the cockpit is quite spacious. The cabin user interface for the F/A’s is horrible, super cheap feel and glitchy, very glitchy. PA system is the same. Up front, looks w...

Re: Air Canada 777 Relief Pilot
Sure, if u are into that, put your name on a sim fill list and then it goes in order of seniority. Plus you get paid hourly while in their.

Re: Air Canada 777 Relief Pilot
RP flying is no different then anything else here. It’s a position held by pilots all throughout the senority list. A lot of new hires choose it because it generally gets you a good schedule with minimum amount of days worked while making the least amount of money. (A new hire 320 F/O, and a New her...

Re: Socialized Bidding (Rouge)
Lots of narrow body WJ guys working 8-10 days a month it all depends what you want to bid for. Not going to argue with that, but I know for a fact there are at least 3-5 brand new 37 Capt’s (what’s that like 5-7 year wait) who would leave tomorrow for a new hire job at AC because they work every mo...

Re: Socialized Bidding (Rouge)
My personal hope is that socialized bidding never makes its way to ML....I’m pretty Jr. and I still prefer seniority based bidding. I have options that give me a choice as to what it is I want in life. If One wants a good lifestyle go RP, bid Senior F/O on the junior aircraft. If one doesn’t care ab...

Re: Security Pat-down
I love those pat downs in China, I wish they went a little longer.
