Comments on BC Helicopters as flight school
just looking replied to Success_Over's topic in Flight Training
Nothing like being given lessons by someone who has never experienced what really happens in the field. There are still stories my instructor use to tell. -
Lots of turnover at remote helicopters?

You claim your mins went up even after arguing I believe you are claiming you are a pilot in high demand as your phone is ringing off the hook. So are you a pilot or an owner. I will not PM our say anything to you or anyone else about who is giving leases without mins. Why would i want to do that and have you running around trying to get what they negotiated. Seems to me You are just a right fighter. Is there a lot of topics you reply to that you don't get into with someone. Enough said have a nice day. I will no longer post on this topic. -

I am not advocating for any pay cut. I don't believe anyone should drop their rates.

Most companies not flying do the majority of their flying in the summer. They refuse to drop rates just to keep people employed. Unfortunately the rates and work are not what it use to be.

The point is probably the owners would rather go broke parked with something sellable. Then go broke with something they can't sell because they can't afford to fix it. Kind of amazes me how some people think operators should go out and work for nothing a long as the flight crew are not asked to take a wage roll back. If the owners ask for wage cutbacks then everyone gets on the forum and calls them cheap. It's ok for the owners to work for nothing. Just don't ask me to do that. -

It will be interesting to see what happens in the Grocery stores today when the Government puts out a press release. Grocery store shelfs may look empty but Don't worry and all will be fine. I wonder how many people are in line Hoarding right now. If you could not find toilet paper last year. Good luck with Fruits and vegetables etc that cross the border daily.

Exactly but as Twinstar said if you don't like it you can leave. Exactly why very little on this forum is constructive. Most have left.
