Re: Operators with pensions?

AC definitely has a pension. Although in Aug of 2012 they switched from a DB to DC type pension. WJ is the major without the pension although I hear they have a very generous ESOP program.

The journey is better than the destination

I've seen this quite a few times on this site and I'm always confused by it. To me it seems like pretty bad advice. Maybe to some the journey is better than the destination, but for me it couldn't be farther from the truth. I've never experienced more pay and better lifestyle than where I am now. Ce...

Re: Captain incapacitated and first officer lands.

You would do what you were told by the person in command of the airplane. Why is this a "dick" quote? I personally would probably leave the poor guy strapped in but if the pilot in command wanted the corpse removed then that is exactly what the FA's should do. What they are told by the pilot in com...

Re: Air Canada Pool

PIC time is completely over rated
Ooookkkkkk. :roll: I'm assuming your PIC total is what you had from your commercial licence. It's hardly impossible to be captain but anyone who has wouldn't say that. Back to the pool talk

Odd thing to say really. Do you wonder the same if you were to fly Southwest, Rouge, Frontier, JetBlue, Virgin, Westjet?

Re: WestJet Pilots and Flight Attendants Race to Unionize

Look at what ALPA just negotiated for Delta. ACPA vs ALPA aside, no one can deny what an amazing TA Delta pilots are about to vote on.

Re: need a quick answer, from someone in the know
