Re: Air Canada Flights
"Now, the days of free booze are a different story; that I miss". No kidding, me too. When the airlines did serve meals on wide bodies, the complaint was always; why are they getting the meal over there first, and why is the FA so slow on my side? etc. Then after we completely vacuumed every last gr...

Re: Flight attendant Limitations?
Is an F/A considered a "Flight Crew" Member? Or cabin crew? If an F/A is considered a flight crew member, and does not see it fit to fly due to fatigue they should also be covered under CARS 602.02? (602.02 No operator of an aircraft shall require any person to act as a flight crew member and no per...

Re: Approach Ban
An approach ban can be imposed, not only by RVR readings below specified values, but also by a reported runway visibility or a reported ground visibility below specified values. An RVR report will take precedence over a runway visibility report or a ground visibility report. A runway visibility repo...

Re: Air Canada Incident
Looks like the "expert, Miller is back-peddling" on his software/mechanical statements. I know he is excited and wants his claim to fame. But he should really have toned it down a notch being on National TV (CTV) and all...Making those kinds of armchair statements is not professional.

Re: Creeping oldfartism...
Can't see ice on the wings? Tell that to the Scandinavian Airlines MD-81 that lost both engines on take-off due to ice breaking off the wings and flying into the fans...Plane broke into 3 parts and a few people were paralized from the waist down. Could have been much worse with over 100 casualties.....

Screw CPA renewal. I say, break away, buy bigger planes and compete head-on with AC and Westjet! No more arbitrators, union talk, scope clause, or any of that nonsense. Let Jazz compete against Air Canada and Westjet. I'm sure the consumer would welcome this with open arms too. They could still run ...

I cringe, every time I hear this. Just because some American pilot used that phrase some time ago....Does that make it standard?
