Fake news, fraudulent report I'm channeling Trump for suitable euphemisms.

Was this one of the conditions reach in the recently settled collective agreement ??

They already extend more offers than spots, expecting people not to show. And they still didn't manage to get 20 last week. Yikes! Overbooking their training slots. Impressive.... Maybe they can make some money of reselling their unused training slots? :rolleyes: Sims aren't booked that far in adva...

We typically run between 85-90% satisfaction scores. The satisfaction score is the number of points you get divided by the maximum number of points you could get if you were awarded everything you want. So basically, on average, you're getting 85-90% of what you bid. I'm curious for those in senior...

It's "done & dusted".

The 6 months heads up is really unexpected. I'm currently hangered at YKZ, called around to all nearby airports, no hangars available anywhere except Collingwood (which is a 1.5hr drive)... for ~$20k/year. We need more condos and a mall in a low density area where Buttonville is, like I need a 11th...

This might cutdown on some "localized" regional flying if able to go direct. https://www.msn.com/en-ca/lifestyle/travel/air-canada-to-launch-non-stop-year-round-service-between-toronto-and-yellowknife/ar-AA1bq9f1?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=0057f197d66f490ea40a1ddc652ade51&ei=6 Could it be part of a ...

As stated, Flair plans to succeed by appealing to the "bottom" of the market place. I see risk with this strategy, hope the "bottom" are not offend by this sentiment. https://www.msn.com/en-ca/travel/news/not-every-airline-can-succeed-in-canada-s-crowded-market-flair-ceo/ar-AA1aEDFw?ocid=msedgdhp&pc...

Rumors is that AC approached Russ Payson to start up Sky Regional again and take back some E175s. Cool, Porter wages + $1.00 and pilots will come running Any carrier - new or current - that does not want to pay market wages will be facing the same pilot staffing obstacles. The old playbook doesn’t ...

Your tax dollars hard at work processing the tax return you filed "on time" for your much needed refund.

Not so sure AC will be happy, they have their own payroll issues but I'm betting Team Raccoon is salivating a bit.

On an individual basis, no it was not a guarantee, promise or right however as a group, 60% of new hires with a MAXIMUM 10% turndown rate is as guaranteed as you can get. I’d love those odds for the lottery! I still don't think Jazz is going to offer any sort of compensation. What is the goal with ...

The flow program was never a promise, guarantee or right, just an opportunity that a given percentage would have access too as an employee of Jazz. When a Jazz pilot migrated to AC seniority was determined by lottery during the PIT course. I'm aware of a pilot who was interviewed, hired but due to a...

So Canada Jetlines is pulling back on their domestic schedule, apparently it will resume in the Fall; right, we've heard that song before in Canada !!

67 pilots hired so far in 2023. That is an average of 22 per month. That will not keep up with attrition.

What number is required to support the future 80 fin baseline ?

Its absolutely chaotic as best. As for policing the use of the overhead bins that would be tied to the ticket as a purchased feature and fall on the gate agent to monitor with a visible indicator for the cabin crew awareness. So no visible tag; no overhead bin privileges, straight to the luggage hol...

It's been a few years since I've travelled much as a passenger, when did they start loading the bus randomly by "zone number". In the past it was always from back to front, was reasonable smooth and everyone had space for their carry-on. This zone process is a dogs breakfast and why don't the airlin...

Oh FFS….you can’t just take a civilian airplane and paint it grey. That’s how we got the Griffon. …also…you can’t take stock military aircraft and ‘Canadianize’ it….that is how we got the mess with the 295 and the SeaKing. Best procurements ever…C17, C130J and the Chinook. Buy them off the shelf an...

Oh great another “new” regulation for the rest of us due to a AC oppsie.

Funny, I've noticed the opposite. More often than not, it seems to be that senior FO thats quick to say "I stayed here for lifestyle reasons" without being asked. We all know why you stayed there, Bob. You're not fooling anyone. That and senior skippers that just can't get enough of that juicy OT r...
