"Gouge"

If you have trained State side or hold an FAA ticket you will have heard the term common for short cuts or most important info for the air plane you are training on example "what's the gouge for the 737 guys ???"

Not so common with Canuks!

You remind them from the get go that a foreign national has the right to the job before you.

Guaranteed you will get the job immediately.

Word is the company are looking to hire 40 Canadian Seasonal Contract pilots in addition to the new hires for the seniority list.

For every Canadian seasonal pilot hired....one less overseas contractor...
Good luck on the interviews.

I hate to put a damper on a note you most certainly meant to be positive, but its actually the other way around:

For every less overseas seasonal contractor pilot, one more Canadian pilot hired.......

And yes, it is good news. I've gotten several emails from non-rated people announcing me that they had either been hired by Canjet/Sunwing or that they had an interview date.

You can go to the careers section of : www.flysunwing.com
