Re: Backpain
Sorry to hear about your back pain. I've had similar issues with discomfort during flights. Have you tried using lumbar support cushions or inflatable travel pillows? They can provide extra support and help alleviate strain on your lower back while sitting for long periods. If this doesn't work, con...

Re: Why everyone runs to AC?
It can be really puzzling when people seem to prefer one airline over another, especially when it doesn't seem obvious. Maybe there's something specific about AC that draws people in, like their service or routes.

Re: Helicopter hours towards regional (Encore / Jazz)?
It's great to hear about your career journey and your plans for the future. Your helicopter experience is definitely valuable, especially with your impressive number of PIC hours.

Re: Flying after a knee surgery
I had a similar experience with knee surgery, and once the pain subsided, flying wasn't too much of a hassle. However, expect some stiffness, especially when moving around in smaller aircraft. If you're still experiencing discomfort, consider seeking help from a physiotherapy clinic like Revitalize ...

Re: PC 12 FO vs c172 PIC
Flying the PC12 could be a solid move, especially with no bond contract and some decent hours. Consider how it fits into your goal of moving to mainline. The turbine, glass cockpit, and IFR experience could be valuable, despite being single-engine.

Re: BEST LIFESTYLE / BEST EMPLOIYER?
So does anyone know of a vacant pilot job?
A job that offers best lifestyle / best employer would obviously be great, but I'm looking for anything at this point really.
As long as the pay is decent.

Re: How to find a job in Canada ??
As others have said before, Canada is not the best country to work in aviation. But if you'll decide to go to the USA, Visa is required. And I think the most suitable Visa in your case would be the Temporary Work Visa. The most common work visa for Canadian citizens is the TN (Trade NAFTA) visa. It ...
