Re: May 1 startup day Air Georgian

Yes Avpride, but you have to understand in essence you are taking the Jazz guys jobs away from them. Can you blame them from feeling a bit pissed? One cannot blame a Jazz pilot for being pissed when they are facing their own demise. The question is, who do you blame? The GN pilot? I don't. That GN ...

Re: CYYC runway walk

You guys up in the tower/centre are doing a great job in my opinion. Some days there is so much traffic and so many weather diversions out there that I picture the airspace to look like a bee hive after someone has whacked it with a stick. My worst fear is that one day I will get cleared for 17L an...

Re: What's the procedure

Off topic a bit, but last week I heard a couple occasions where guys were arguing and bickering with controllers coming and going from YYC.

Re: ESDC published new guidelines for pilot TFW

Are you sure Gilles? Are there really 200 Canadian pilots with 4000+ hours and jet experience who want to work for Sunwing wages currently? Aren't we throwing perfectly qualified Canadian pilots under the bus in order to declare victory on this one? This allows a foreign pilot with 4000 hours co-pi...
