The Air Canada OTS thread

[BigBird]

Can anyone post what’s been available for vacancies to the new recruits in these recent PIT courses?

This a 12 month outlook based on the last equipment for this year which closed last week.

Note: CMSC chooses which positions and how many positions are available for fulfillment per class per basis.

Note: There are 2 December courses. Therefore there are less of these positions open.

Indeed. But the vast majority of pilots are unified and working towards changing this. And when it happens, it will positively affect every pilot in this country.

They will take what they can get.

Heard it will be even less in 2024

Global Airline with new hires 777 FOs that are paid less than the flight attendants let alone any other pilot on the NAT Tracks

[AirCandida]

It's not about the money, it's about the prestiage of flying the flag and being at the worlds best airline. Mention that on your tinder/grindr profile = instant success

What a stupid mentality

Let me guess.. Your Grindr profile doesn’t mention your employer at all?? Just focus on the physical attributes!! Some of us don’t have physical characteristics to brag about, but at least we might have a recognition of sarcasm!!

[DanWEC]

Some of us don’t have physical characteristics

So you've finally ascended into a state of pure energy.... amazing.
I guess we all knew that pilot was the highest possible stage of evolution before the transition.
