Guest Peanuts Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 Good morning all, I have a question and hope that someone can answer it for me, truthfully. Is it true that AC has DC-10 drivers sitting at home being paid xxx amount of $ for not working ? If it is true then I would love their job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp fa Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 Shhhh! No one's supposed to know about that. Someone made a mistake on the equipment bid about 20 years ago, and there are about 600 pilots getting paid to fly DC10s. Fortunately for them, nobody in flight ops management has noticed that Air Canada doesn't have DC10s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Hudson Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 Jennifer, Jennifer, Jennifer...how are we ever going to keep our pampered, cloistered ways invisible if we keep bringing those little inconvenient skeletons, er, plans out of our collective closets. I mean, if we let the world know about the 1800 F/A's also kept on our black-belt SST, "Special Staffing Team", what are we all then to do? I mean, really...And Mitch, the 450 AME's who cluster round the old bird making sure all the fastenings are fastened and polishing the plumbing under the cowlings and in the wheelwells. Dang, dang if the Toronto Star ever picks this up, we dished and then where will all our swimming pools, boats, backyard tennis courts, homes on the Riviera be? Peanuts, you cracked the code. Wanna join The Team? ({) Don, Who Knows/Says/Does Nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
