Even if those are the departure minimums. It seems kind of dicey to fly when you're at minimum. Yeah those conditions are all well and fine when things are going your way. Say you lose power and electrics. Now what? Now you're fucked trying to get back, unless you did a VCOA So you're saying as lon...

Yes you have to interpolate. You can depart below the spec vis down to half a mile as long as you can meet the requirements listed. If not the you need 1.5 miles. What? No. Spec vis is departure minima. You have to have the visibility per the category to do it. You only meet the requirements to rel...

Decent newsletter linked below. See page 3

I'm just looking through the CAP GEN now. Which page says you can depart below? Sorry, I just need clarification. ...

105. You are planning to depart from Terrace (CYXT) and the prevailing weather is 33015KT 1/2SM -RA SCT003 OVC007 . With an initial climb speed of 115 KIAS, are you legal to depart and if so, what considerations would have to be taken into account? a) Yes if departing runway 03, providing you cross...

Here's a video showing the oversteer technique. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCfgD3GhNc0 1:45 into the clip They're cheating though, they've got extra wheels on the belly :mrgreen: On a more serious note, thanks, nice to see! It's the perfect excuse for all those students when their instructor c...

If understand correctly the short answer is yes. You oversteer the nose wheel on tight radius turns. It becomes more and more relevant the larger the aircraft. In the 767 most of the taxiways at yyz if I don’t oversteer the corner I’ll drag a main through the grass. Is that only an issue in Canada?...

Well it's good to know the pressure is working. I think I'll buy a paddle board and enjoy the water this summer. You should do that either way. Whether you’re happy with your work conditions or not, you shouldn’t let your job define who you are. I think we’ve all flown with those boring weenies and...

Oh boy.

Easy folks, slow down. Our MEC recommended we enjoy our short Canadian summer with our families. It isn't summer yet. There should be no complaint with doing VO now, but come next month and August it will be a different story. Save the jabs till warranted. 1442927A-4344-4143-801E-F55915221A5A.jpeg

As I watch all this play out, I keep getting reminded of this quote: "I never saw a wreck and never have been wrecked nor was I ever in any predicament that threatened to end in disaster of any sort."

As alluded to. You guys should look closely at LOU2.

Swoop pilots will be on a 3 year scale with a top rate of 162 an hour for Capt.

I saw that payscale earlier. I doubt it’s official. It’s just a bunch of salaries with no context. I’m going to bet when it is released it will be in an hourly rate format.

23.5% raise over 4 years Plus 19.1% "wsp", of which 9.1% is added to the pay scale, 10% added to the account. With 0% pilot contribution. Plus other good stuff. Not bad. How did you come up with 19.1%? According to the summary, the WSP will be 10%. Of that 10% wsp 9.1% would be added to the hourly ...

I’m not at Westjet. But the summary says average pay increase of 15.5%. So different years of service may have %. Also it says 9.1% of WSP would be added to the hourly rates. My understanding is that the WSP was up to 20% and will now be 10% of salary (with no pilot contributions any more) So it see...
