Re: Ural 320 forced landing in a field (Russia) 12 September 2023
Mayhaps. Yet drugs are illegal, and you can still get them anywhere and in a rapid fashion, including pure Colombian white gold. Where there is a will, there is a way. When over half of the world's population lives in countries that does not support the sanction regime, well, that makes things pret...

Re: Don't be a scab
Your posts here are doing more damage to pilot unity than the Westjet CEO could ever do. It's not the hardcore 5% that wins a strike. It's the 95% midfield that does, and the support of the public. Pilots have already proven they don't have the public's support on this one given their outlandish de...

Re: Hiring Process Update
Sunwing just lost 64 pilots in the form of the Temporary Foreign Workers being denied. My guess is that Sunwing will scramble to pick up lift from other airlines in Canada, if they have excess capacity, or maybe there will be some further hiring. It's all up in the air right now. Excellent news !! ...

Quick CARS question Re: Defect reporting
Could anyone direct me to the CARS requirements for defect reporting ? I’d like to read the actual rules, specifically for airline/ 725 ops if able .
If there is a broad regulation I’d happily take that info too.
I can’t seem to find the relevant sections ( if any )
Thanks

Re: Brace for impact
Seems odd to already be saying, “Gee I sure am glad we were all on one list so I didn’t get furloughed last year. Anyways, I’m back at work now so @#$! ‘em.” Exactly… Encore literally saved the day during the pandemic. Encore pilots lost their jobs or went right seat so that WJ pilots could take th...

Re: Lynx Air Pilot Pay
All these ULCC pilots should hang their head in shame. Thanks for destroying a career for our kids in aviation because you're to bloody arrogant to sit as an FO in a better paying job. It'll be these pilots that are the death of aviation. Thx again Well said. 👏👏👏 100k Capt to start and 56k for FO? ...

Yes either A) Day 1er who has made his millions and WJ can do no wrong B) management C) and my guess: an office person who couldn’t see it from a pilots POV if he tried. Regardless , his views are the minority / skewed to say the least. But.. there always has to be 1 right? It doesn’t really matter ...
