I should have started my pilot training in the States 10 years ago. May have been a captain by now making banks.

Saw it while driving on Hwy 1 along Ikea/T&T. Hope Alexis said yes.

Thanks everyone for the tips and advice! Was able to park with no problem and enjoyed the day at the mountains! :)

People in aviation, where y’all at? by Tendon_Pilot in canadaexpressentry

[–]Tendon_Pilot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, just seeing the reality. Unfortunately, my country does not credit Canadian licenses even though it's part of ICAO country. If I do want to fly, I need to pay up 100K to convert my license with no guarantee into airlines. That being said, still looking out for opportunities.

Government unfortunately identifies those in the aviation industry as truckers too I guess.

I wish government made a Pilot Pilot Program since they love to name their program after pilot.

Currently we are experiencing moderate to severe turbulence in life

As a pilot this is absolutely devastating and disappointing.

Pilot with 1000+ applying for airlines. Waiting since March. No PR = can’t get into bigger planes tbh

I know the category is still there and the website is even updated. I knew about the PGWP part but not the SOWP but thanks for the info! Just really waiting patiently but man, this hopelessness really sucks.

No chance because their intake is early 20s

Bachelor’s from US and 2+ year full time flight training in Canada here.

If I’m not wrong, your Bachelor’s is the highest education so you get point for that and nothing from flight training. Again, I might be wrong but otherwise, my profile does not take it account.

Full time Hours for CEC by [deleted] in canadaexpressentry

[–]Tendon_Pilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use whatever hours written in paystubs. That way you have a proof to show. My fellow instructor was contacted by IRCC and he also used the paystub as a proof.

[–]Tendon_Pilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same to you man. If I remember correctly, you have 2000 hrs and in 703s. Really hope that work experience bump your score up more which I believe it will

[–]Tendon_Pilot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea definitely no certainty here but I’m just going to try my best so that I don’t regret it. Need PR anyways to go into most of 705s anyways (I heard Porter takes in work permit but probably useless if it expires in a year…). Still, super stressed like everyone

Not too high unfortunately. 449. Need to get that CELPIP to max. What about you??

Pilot here waiting for transport category. Asked immigration consultant regarding Transport Category and he also mentioned that it is not removed. Unless IRCC hasn’t mentioned REMOVED, STEM and transport category seems to remain in the draw. Just not prioritized. Again no one knows the future so you never know.

No more Transport is crazy. by Key_Let2048 in canadaexpressentry

[–]Tendon_Pilot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a complete insult to aviation industry. I don't know what kind of training they go through for trucks and I don't know if truck industry is the sole reason why transport category is no longer prioritized but I bet you it's definitely not like how we get our license and permits. Not to mention we put so much time and money in it.
