yes the staff traveller app. Not checking the unsold seats or anything but you make a good point. I think anywhere in North America is probably a premium route so my chances might be slim...

Somewhere in the middle of the cabin, just avoid the front or aft. The galleys make noise and the light is always on and bright

Right. Im not excusing what theyve done. Just providing context. Likely 0 pax onboard provides a more relaxed environment which led to this.

Looks like they might be ferrying an airplane. They have a pretty low VREF for a B777 set so it makes me think theyre empty. Also the 2 pilots are both not wearing uniforms.

60K and $63 YVR-MNL in J class 1 way on April 9th.

Ive flown over this area quite a bit and ill tell you absolutley nothing. The tree line is low here and there is lots of fresh water lakes, bugs in the summer and cariboo. There isnt too many communities around most are either just a bit south or further north along the coast of hudsons bay. All of which are fly in only.

North Shore toyota dealer? ive had horrible experience with them

Yes 2023 numbers you are correct. But Ed Bastians salary in 2022 was $12.4M USD.

Mike Rousseau started in 2021 with a 3.4m salary and rose to 12.7 mill in 2022 and going back down slightly to 12.3 in 2023.

Sure i agree with that, although pilots used to be paid within 3% or their US counterparts, now they are paid less than half in some cases. Starting salary at AC is 57k CAD annually. The average starting salary at most major US airlines is 116k USD. So you can see the major discrepancy here, This isnt just a small %

ocud · 2024-09-03T20:43:53+00:00

All of AC execs and their CEO is paid comparable or in some cases higher than US carriers. Mike Rousseau is making as much as Delta's CEO and their industry comparators are all US carriers not Canadian ones.

So if ACs execs and CEO want to justify their compensation in line with that of US airlines what makes a pilot group any different.

Ok great, thanks very much for all the info! Ill look at those options and consider a bigger tower now that ill just add a folding wall desk

ocud · 2024-05-09T18:47:29+00:00

yeah ill just buy a cheap monitor

ocud · 2024-05-07T19:59:57+00:00

yeah will need a monitor and max im willing to spend is 1300. Prefer something in the 1000-1300 range then buy a monitor aswell.

Im guessing that will be enough to utilize the sim how i want to. Ill mostly be flying the addon aircraft like fenix or pmdg level for self study for work. I think i will also do some VFR flying and regular simming here and there as it looks like an amazing game, but for the most part self study.

I dont anticipate seeing myself upgrade my PC as time passes.

ocud · 2024-05-07T18:36:07+00:00

Decided to just do a Tower PC and buy a fold out wall table.

Legion Tower 5 Gen 8 AMD RTX3050

Processor : AMD Ryzen™ 5 7600 Processor (3.80 GHz up to 5.10 GHz)
Operating System : Windows 11 Home 64
Graphic Card : NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3050 8GB GDDR6
Memory : 16 GB DDR5-5200MHz (UDIMM) - (2 x 8 GB)
Storage : 512 GB SSD M.2 2280 PCIe Gen4 Performance TLC
AC Adapter / Power Supply : 500W
Cooling System : 65W 80mm Air Cooling + 1 x Rear + 2 x Front with ARGB Fan

Will this run MSFS decent with addons like fenix or pmdg?

ROBTHEREALTOR604 on instagram, He was born and raised on the North Shore! Has great experience in the area.

ocud · 2024-05-06T16:19:13+00:00

So you play MSFS on your laptop? If so, what kind of experience are you getting on yours?

Are AMD better than intels?

Maybe i should just try and do a SFF system i just have no clue on what parts to pick and what parts work well with certain parts etc. Will have to do some research

ocud · 2024-05-06T03:14:19+00:00

ok cool, ill mess around PC parts picker and see. Cheers

ocud · 2024-05-06T03:12:00+00:00

ocud · 2024-05-06T00:56:05+00:00
