“Flying the Line Volume III” is currently being researched and written as well.

ALPA has been putting them out in podcast form too.

I'm taking the hint and adding it to the list (as I'm still in the stage of realizing the more I know the less I know). All good and thanks again.

Any ALPA Member can get both vol. I & II for free.

Also available via ALPA APP in PDF

”How can I get a copy of the books, Flying the Line I and II?

Requests for the Flying the Line books I and II should be made to your MEC. Additionally, both volumes and the podcast are available on alpa.org.”






Hello, does anyone know the current timeline after interview in terms of class date and training? Thanks

Could be as short as two weeks.

Hello everyone, I just started training. I stopped by the store at TK and saw a pretty nice soft shell jacket. Is that an approved uniform item? Or maybe unofficially approved? I'm trying to figure out what are the different options out there, other than the blazer or the full trench coat. The leather jacket isn't really an option as it's a pain in the rear for commuting.
What do you guys/gals wear out on the line?

at the moment the only officially approved jackets are the blazer trench coat or leather coat. Doesn’t mean you won’t see other jackets, but I would wait til off probation to start wearing whatever you want

You can also get a wool coat too, as opposed to the flasher-style coat, in addition to those mentioned above. No need to buy anything early though.

Two more thumbs up on the wool option.
