Better than most 604’s but we aren’t talking about a 604 op here…

I’d be embarrassed ro fly a -12 or a 350 at that rate. A Q400?

You all need to give your head a shake.

The market has changed and so few ops have followed the trend.

Re: Corporate average salaries F/O and Captain

Challenger CAPT based in KFXE starting pay $250K Converted license to FAA in Jan, Visa finally came through in June. 20 on / 10 off. Must be nice, but that’s not relevant to Canadian aviation Nice flex on your part. (Who are you trying to rub your shit rag on though?) Glad it’s worked out for you s...

Re: Corporate average salaries F/O and Captain

It’s shit pay. No disrespect intended to either companies mentioned but they are accountable to their execs (owners) and the respective salaries are haven’t changed much over the years. I’m genuinely surprised that the « good guys » haven’t started squeezing the owners for better pay in order to ret...

Re: Shouldn't have been sent solo...

Here come the armchair critics. Can’t anyone say the instructor, and especially ATC did an amazing job here? Hold on there Rookie, This ain’t no *arm chair quarter back girl* routine… you already know that a mile back on a 3 degree CDA that she should have been at 300’ AGL not 1500 feet* ASL/AGL is...

Re: Shouldn't have been sent solo...

Perhaps local noise abatement rules. I found her power settings transmissions over the radio quite counter productive as well, perhaps even outright dangerous. Do you really want an overloaded, panicky student focusing on an RPM gauge? Then again, the pilot did land safely eventually, and the instr...

Re: Comox WestJet + RCAF

Gents, I would respectfully say that the debate about lines, box etc and what have you is a moot point. It’s all about situational awareness. Akin to many other incidents… there was a lack or lapse of situational awareness and or of airmanship. «George doesn’t that look tight? I’m not sure I trust t...

Re: Shouldn't have been sent solo...

Am I the only one a bit confused why her instructor wanted her student to be vectored to be on a 1 mile final at 1500 feet? I must be missing something….

I’m surprised… I thought civilians weren’t allowed to have hot seats? Perhaps I am mistaken?

Re: Wasaya new contract?

Is the pie big enough to get any sort of gains this time? Ask Rob… oh wait he went to the place that got most of Wasaya’s pie. Holly crap! There’s a name I haven’t heard for years. I figured he’d retire with team “big bad Wasaya”! He was one of my training captains there years ago… Great guy, scare...

I ask because I don’t see a point for Yyc when there is barely any flying yet a lot of staff, with the majority being deadheaded to yvr or when able sent to temp bases in yyz or yul.

Re: Too much in a hurry to wait a little bit for wake turbulence separation?

Controlled or uncontrolled airport? Uncontrolled. I don't think that would be permitted at a controlled airport, as a 2 min separation would be enforced in this case. You can waive wake turbulence separation in some situations at controlled airports. I know that I have done it before but don't reme...
