Re: YHZ and YQT

Jazz has no flying in YHZ anymore and we don’t fly to YQT except on rare occasions. I doubt it would attract any Porter talent.

Re: French requirement

It’s also best to drive an EV to the interview and have a Pepsi in the cup holder to show you are a true Quebecois. Bonus points if you’re pants are extra tight. :lol:

Re: How long is Transport Canada processing time for Class 1 medical

I have been jumping through hoops since June 2025. When i questioned what's going on with my medical i received a registered letter 2 weeks later. First letter was 7 items. I am now at 12 items. Last was submitted over 2 weeks ago. Still no word. My Doctor has spoke to them at least 3 times. She ca...

Re: How long is Transport Canada processing time for Class 1 medical

Unfortunately it's obvious that the current federal government has no interest in improving the lives of its citizens. This can be seen in the rapid decline of every aspect of life over the past decade. Can someone actually tell me what has improved in Canada during this period? I honestly can't th...

Jazz only hired 62 pilots in 2025 so things have been really slow for the new kids getting off reserve or getting a base transfer.

Lots of diversity on the 401 lately. Nearly every truck crash is a flip flop driver with questionable credentials and experience. I hope aviation doesn’t go the route of trucking.

Re: Is Claude going to Hawaii this Christmas?

I hope he goes to Dallas or Atlanta this winter! I wouldn’t mind a flow through to Delta or one of the other majors. Or maybe he will have a staycation and cook a nice big turkey at the ALPA office with those fancy new appliances and watch Christmas Vacation and Bad Santa on that big screen TV.

Re: Does anyone know what the MEC is actually trying to get out of the ULP?

Part of me thinks they are intentionally trying to run Jazz into the ground, or they are really that clueless. Minimal hiring as of late… $110/hr for starting CA pay. No one is going to come here for that. It’s really sad to see. Maybe they are trying to get the CPA voided and get out of it. I don’t...

Sad to spend their final years of life working but there’s lots of guys I know who re-married and are in their 60’s and have kids in university. Cost of living isn’t getting cheaper. I would suggest they become simulator instructors. Companies don’t really want these guys flying because it makes for...

Re: Upcoming Ground Schools

Hiring has really slowed down lately. Unless there are more classes below you, your base transfer could range from weeks to several months after you finish training. I personally don’t agree with the assigning of bases after you start. Bases should be offered during the interview. Then you can make ...

I think he just means if you’re single or on a single income you’re a renter and not likely to own a house. You can live on 120k a year in Toronto but forget about a house and 2 vehicles in the driveway.

Looks like the #1 engine had an un contained failure and fire and the middle engine got some of the debris which caused it to fail. After that it’s game over. Just speculating from the videos I saw. RIP to the crew.

Re: Does anyone know what the MEC is actually trying to get out of the ULP?

The best time to visit Hawaii is generally between March and September, when temperatures are warmest and rainfall is lowest. For fewer crowds and better prices, consider traveling during the shoulder seasons of late spring and fall. That flow deal between Jazz & Hawaiian was legit! Haven’t decided...
