Does anyone have any info/thoughts on LCE outta YKZ? I see they operate a bunch of PC 12's. Their website does not seem to outline hiring minimums or if they operate with 1 or 2 crew. Any info would be appreciated. Cheers.

cheers

Bandit, I read the LCE schedule thread just before seeing this, and considered outing you, and then decided against it. But now that you've trashed Seneca and basically acted like a naughty word, care to reveal your connection to LCE?! Hmm? Bill O'Reilly would be proud of your 'fair and balanced' assessment of LCE I'm sure. We have obviously entered the 'no spin zone' with this thread!
Nice job in basically alienating all of YKZ by the way- you covered Toronto Airways, Flightexec, and Seneca. You are clearly way too good for that airport.
Carry on then......

fly - by -night flightexec

Hey don't Flightexec have a base at Pearson also and have Cheyenne's, Piaggio's, and Falcon's. I wouldn't call that so fly by night.

ehh cockjock,

i think the bandit there has nothing against toronto airways or seneca for that matter. i believe bandit was just commenting on the fact that ykz is filled with to many cessna 150 (or 152 : ) all-weather-fighter-test-pilot’s with their grand tales of grappling with 5 knot crosswinds on a 3902’x 100’ runway. Ohhh and I don’t think he was trashing the seneca top guns in their jazzy jackets either.

cheers

The Bandit wrote:The pilots are happy, they got a great boss

Most definitely not what I've heard! I know some of the pilots there, past and present and I gotta tell ya, what "the bandit" wrote made me laugh. 5 GDOs a month. WOW!!! Can you take em all in a row or do you have to take them in 12 hour chunks? Sorry bandit, but most of us would not want to "hang up our hats" at a place that gave only 5 GDOs a month. Also what happened to the 4 year bond? Its ONLY 2 now? For a PC12? And I thought the industry is moving again. DOH!
p.s. I have no problems with training bonds, but shouldnt be more than a year for that type of aircraft.

The crew get good wages and super per diems

care to expand, last i heard wages were poor and per diems laughable

Raven 2000,
FEX no longer has falcon or excel???? or CP or OPS Manager..........seems they took the planes and went west!

Dockjock,
Your a pretty funny person! You are obviously a little jealous of something or have nothing better to do than post..............holy crap, what was it, like 400 posts???? get a life. Got nothing against anyone, its business and nothing more. Go pick on someone you haven't been turned down by. Off yourself!

Bandit, take a minute to read your original post. You slam the Buttonville owners, Seneca, Toronto Airways and Flightexec in reply to a simple question pertaining to none of these. It was impossible for you to state that LCE's a good outfit without hurling insults? It suprises you that someone might take issue with this?

That said, I'm just one of those "golden spoon Seneca people" so the way I see things through my cool aviator glasses is probably not worth beans... all I'd know is the textbook version of the way it is... and, hell, I'm too stuck up to care anyway. I worked at TAL, too, so in spite of my enviable 1000 hours in the circuit, I'm obviously no one worth listening to.

You know what they say about people living in glass houses...

.......

Hey Bandit,

Go take the time and educate yourself before you start spewing your verbal diarrhea.

I am confident you will find 2 highly qualified CPs in the front office when you walk in the doors of FEX YKZ. If you look closely you might even spot the OPS Manager and even a "girl pilot" or two somewhere in the mix.

Enjoy your 5 GDOs

Neo

A 'VERY' nice girl pilot at that!

Haha all you guys crack me up, go get laid!

any more and it will break....
it was just a compliment take it easy...

Bandit, you're the damn ops manager and you come on here and act like you're just a little birdie with all the info. You even go so far as to complement yourself

they got a great boss

! I think it's you that should get the life my friend.

Normally I would consider 'outing' someone on this board to be somewhat taboo. However, in light of what 'The Bandit' wrote about pretty much everyone at YKZ, I'd say he deserves it.

Hell, Dockjock even warned him first.

Bandit, I read the LCE schedule thread just before seeing this, and considered outing you

Bandit, either you are not who Dockjock thinks you are, or your light bulb is dimly lit. If he is correct, I would certainly hope that someone in your position would govern themselves with a little more professionalism.

The BANDIT does not have anything to do with LCE....they did in past. I know, I work there. I used to be "BANDIT" never THE BANDIT. If anyone has comments to do with management at LCE, FEX or anywhere else PM me.
Thanks

hahahaha looks like someone got in over their head Bandit, remember what desk you were at 4 years ago, remember your roots man!

Tried e-mailing both parties with no luck. The offer still stands. Please no apprentices as I'm trying to establish a base at this point.

Pulled this from an old 'The Bandit' post - looks like Dockjock was right. I would love to be there the next time you strut through the main terminal at YKZ...

Small industry, lots of luck dealing with people there now. IMHO opinion, LCE should boot your ass to the curb for this shit. Are you bright enough to realize the damage you may have caused?

Is not same person. I worked there a while ago. Hey The other kind of dude. U work at AGL?? or Honda?? I remeber a few upset former workers who would like to slam someone, just to make your touchy 2cents worth it. Get your facts right first before u diss someone. You might not be as smart as you think. Dockjock and you do need to get laid!! If all you have to do is cry over issues on this web site, you need to find Jesus. If you know who you are judging, you might not want to be in the terminal at YKZ at the same time he/she is, but I know the guy your slamming, he has no cares what you or the other dudes have. He gave me my big break and I'm AC now. I know lots he's done good by.
RR CR AA KM RM VM JL JT AF GN TC JJ RP FM .......... oh I'm sure the list goes on. Maybe one of you concerned citizens will get a job there flying the C208 instead of crying foul or doing touch and goes all day, that would make all better wouldn't it.
My 2 bits...............CSI is on now got to go!

rasta,

Just out of curiosity- were you drunk when you wrote that?

haha I thought the same thing just thought I would let someone else post it 1st...

Its really funny to see people bashing seneca grads... i am also a golden spoon seneca grad, howver in my case seneca just happened to be the closest and cheapest school to my home. And i didn't have $45000 saved up to go get my licence at TAL in 15months.

It just so happened that they had really friggin nice planes (understatement), and the flight time was government subsidized. If i was born in calgary i probably would have gone to Mount royal and started working in the industry a year earlier like a guy i know the same age as me.

so i wear my snazzy seneca jacket with pride.
its nice to work in YZF where people really dont give a rats ass where your from, and everyone leaves their attitudes back home.

Any company that bonds an FO for a PCC on a single pilot aircraft needs some serious help. If you are just starting out- please don’t get involved with something this silly. There are good jobs out there you just might have to work/move to find them.
