412driver Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 just when you think the whole industry is full of cutthroats............. i'm flying my steamchicken along and land at the "competition" for fuel. i'm figuring i may get a hard time ect. but no, kind service, a ride into town and the freedom to park overnight on their pad graciously offered. downwash, you are a kind soul and a credit to the industry. it was good to see you again. cheers to your comrades in the hangar as well. and he wouldn't even let me buy his beers!!!

Thumper2 Posted April 29, 2003 Report Share Posted April 29, 2003 412 Driver Sounds like you are enjoying things so far? Must have a laptop? When you refer to to the cut-throats .... do like mean the folks that get there rates to the bottom or close to, then they start dropping the min''s to get the job? I have ran into those boys out there! Fly safe and enjoy the beer, stay out of the South Hill!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
412driver Posted May 3, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2003 i found out something very interesting this year (although it may be old news). alberta has set fixed rates for a/c. so if they need a 212 or a jetranger or whatever, the rate is fixed so nobody can try to undercut the next. are any other provinces following this trend? what''s the reaction out there? thoughts?
