Not quite the new norm. I believe they ramped up the last two courses to 100% in order to bump up the years average to 75%. I think the intention is to run at 75% flow for the rest of 2016. So only 2 out of 8 will be off the street. They also mentioned they have enough guys in the pool to last the r...

Any word on the pay scales? Improvements? Coles notes?

That is not the case at Sunwing.

I believe Cargojet starts higher than that too.

I thought Sunwing started at $53/hr so roughly 50k/yr.

Cargojet only has a 3% pension match?

Is that info up to date on Canadian Pilot Pay website?

I don't think Adam Vaughan has even consulted with his leaders before speaking like that, a bit premature in my opinion. Day 2 and he's speaking on behalf of the entire liberal government regarding this issue which is a few hundred million dollars worth in terms of jobs and economics. Easy there Ad...

ugh

So looking on Canadian pilot pay, a year 7 WJ captain gets $185/hour. 1000 hours/year = $185,000 +20% ESOP = $37,000 T4 total: $222,000 Actual gross cash in hand: $222,000 - $37,000 (company ESOP) - $37,000 (employee ESOP) = $148,000 Max RRSP deduction for 2015: $24,930 Taxable income: $222,000 - $...

What does the Captain side look like?

You got that right Loopa. Ive been in the mainline hiring pool for 9 months now and am sure hoping Aug is the call i get. Otherwise my time is getting shorter and shorter. I guess October classes may be my last shot. Taking 4 or 5 out of the 21 in the mainline pool means the odds are not great. Her...

Westjet 767 will be configured 2/2/2 in PLUS section and 2/3/2 in Y. PLUS section looks to be equivalent to AC's Premium economy sections on widebodies. Looks quite good.

Hi there, The ability to flow is still there. The job description was recently re-written. We just had two classes start here this past Monday on the 12th. One for Encore and one for WJ. Encore is running monthly courses and our next westjet course isn't until May (50%flow) The bulk of the Westjet ...
