I've lived in the third world so I can offer some guidance on living in that kind of society: A low competence society requires you to not rely on things like transportation, or any public service. Have a car you can fix yourself, cook your own food. Have redundancy everywhere. Print off your airlin...

Narrow bodies are getting heavier. That will be good for their pay.

Kudos to management if they got work for 15 Jetz. That's quite a coup.

It's alway amazing to me that these rich people will skimp on qualified crew.

How did you get the American job offer? Any tips?

It's been 19 minutes.

Who's Cristy?

Do you guys think Air Canada would remain a viable airline if Canada were to become part of the United States? Obviously they'd have to more than double pilot salaries to retain any crew but otherwise would they be able to compete with US legacy airlines?

Of course it's against the law. That's why you have to sign the paper to give up your legal rights. Then when questioned they'll say nobody forced you to sign just like they said nobody forced you to get vaccinated.

If they stopped putting berms on the ends of runways there would be less accidents involving aircraft hitting them.

I don't think Carson was first. There was also WestJet Encore. Also some flight school in Gatineau requested an LMIA for instructors, Select Aviation. Tons of crop spraying companies have applied. A few helicopter operators as well. "The diversity of our student and instructor population demonstrat...

But what if AC say no?

Great news for the other countries that will benefit from the work they do.

Even with Pattern Bargaining, this Air Canada MEC couldn't secure the gains WestJet had. Rather brutal performance for AC ALPA. In my limited dealing with the current leadership they have come across as very pro-company while the pilots that are paying lot of money for their representation are thou...

SXM is not where I would choose to test brand new landing gear.

Not everyone is cut out for this. From the 100+ people that started my aviation college program around 20 people graduated. Of those less than 10 are still in the industry as pilots. Most of those people could be making more in other industries in my opinion.

8 resignations on today's bid. Almost all juniors. What is going on kool-aid krew?

It is in bad taste to troll post on such a tragic event.

You make a good point Conflicting Traffic. It's such a messed up culture that we have where employers will do absolutely anything except pay a decent salary to their employees. Air Canada estimated it lost about $375 million in operating income from the strike by their flight attendants.

Oh @#$! there are some real dummies among the ranks.

I'm convinced it's a coping mechanism. They don't want to feel guilt about what has happened to younger generations.

Carson has always been the cheapest mofos. Time for us to blacklist them.

Wow I hadn't seen the pictures of the engine flying off before. 6 year inspection intervals is ridiculous.

Ah, a real estate agent.

Or you could just work for a foreign airline. Like say, Emirates.

Canada has the worst housing affordability to income ratio in the entire OECD, and it's not even close. It's up 80% since 2004. Seeing people trying to defend it is the weirdest form of Stockholm Syndrome.
