Specifically interested in:

Wages.. i.e basic and flying pay etc
block hours each month, days off and can you bid for your work?
Staff travel
Rough time to command on 320 series

and any other info!

Thanks very much

Equipment assigned were Relief pilot 767/777/and the Bus series/ Rt seat narrow bodies. Bases Vancouver/Toronto Flat pay first two years, then formula pay, varies with type/routes.A multi crew lic or a Frozen ATPL wont get you an interview in Canada {And most of us want it to stay this way} Most aplicants have spent time in many of the above mentioned flying jobs. A great company to work for with good routes maint and aircraft. Time to promotion? Depends what you want to do, domestic, long haul? The down side? just took the dog out, its minus 14Deg C!
