Feature Article


Reaching My Airline Pilot Goals By: Bonnie Tidswell, Victoria Flying Club Former VFC Instructor and Alumna

I didn’t think I could do it. I was frustrated and felt contempt for articles popping up on my social media feeds that would announce supermoms balancing career and family life as airline pilots. It was something I wanted but didn’t think I could ever achieve. However, what I have learned now is that anything is possible, everyone has a unique set of circumstances, and each of us must find our own path to pursue our dreams. There is no one-size-fits-all solution.

I hadn’t always wanted to be a pilot. In fact, I didn’t think it was really possible until about a month before I signed up for the Discovery Flight in 1997. But looking back, the seeds were sown early. I grew up spending time going to airshows around British Columbia, and my parents dabbled in skydiving. I even had a ride in a 182 at age seven. I was not exposed to any female pilot role models, and I suppose, in a way, that’s what ultimately drove me to want to do it. I wanted to prove that, as a woman, I could do it, too. That first flight quickly turned my desire to 'prove something' into a pure love for the art of flying an airplane.

My career started in 1998 in the Kootenay region of British Columbia, with a freshly minted commercial license in hand. After a year of working on the required Transport Canada paperwork, my husband Robin and I opened the doors to our one-airplane flight school and charter operation. Robin and I grew it into a successful and respected business, eventually operating out of both CYCG and CZNL. My personal highlights were flying our Cessna 337 for fire patrol, telemetry, and aerial surveys through every valley in southeastern British Columbia.

When I became pregnant with our second child, I realized I wanted to fully commit to raising our children. So we shut our doors after nearly 10 years in business, packed up, and moved to Victoria for a new beginning. During the next five years, I did the minimum required flying to stay current, but when my youngest started kindergarten, I knew it was time to get back in the air.

Once I completed the requirements to renew my instructor rating under the guidance of Graham Palmer, the new challenge I faced was making an instructing job with the Victoria Flying

Club dovetail with being a full time mom. Robin was a pilot who was literally always on call, both of us learning not to trust those “guaranteed” days off, so I was solely responsible for the kids even though he was able to spend lots of time with them. The Club was very accommodating and understood the challenges I faced, which I am forever grateful for. Had they not responded this way, I may not have continued flying.

I spent any spare time I had preparing to write the Instrument Rating exam, my next logical step. The IFR Rating was not a priority in the early days — I feel like I’m old enough to say that now, although some may disagree! — as I didn’t need it for the day VFR flying we did in the Kootenays. My plan was interrupted with an unexpected move to Calgary when Robin accepted a job there with WestJet, and I was set back another year and a half. I stayed back in Victoria to sell our house, pack it up, and then settle my children into their new routines in Calgary. I wondered how I could possibly continue flying in this new reality. In a twist of fate, I ended up talking with a life coach I met at a dinner party who was instrumental in helping me find the passion, motivation, and drive to make a

detailed roadmap to arrive at my ultimate destination: the airlines.

I carefully laid out a two-year plan to get to the airlines, with timelines, accountability, study plans, and strategies. Within a month, I had landed an instructing job at Mount Royal University, my number one choice out at CYBW. I started on January 2, 2016 and absolutely immersed myself, loving every minute I was there. The airplanes were as beautiful as the mountains just to the west, my colleagues were fun to be around, and we worked well together as a team. As a family, really.

This was, however, a very challenging time for our finances and time management. During the evenings and “weekends” (I had Mondays and Wednesdays off), I studied, jumped into the simulator with colleagues, and flew a Seneca II across the field. My family was quite understanding and really pulled through for me during these busy times. Robin was home more than he had ever been thanks to his schedule at WestJet, and the kids got themselves off to school and home each day.

It took me three months to the day to complete my Multi-IFR. I checked that off the list, enrolled in a three day AeroCourse, and the next day spent a lovely seven hour day at Transport Canada writing both ATPL exams. I can tell you there was some serious exhaling after that!

I was really on a roll, so I thought, why not upgrade my Class 2 Instructor rating, since I had

been meaning to do it years ago. So I completed five Transport Canada exams and four flight tests in eight months after enacting my two year plan.

At this point, I had accomplished all but one of my goals: the illustrious life of an airline pilot.

I didn’t have to wait long. In late August 2016, I started ground school followed by simulator training at CAE in Toronto. After a month of intense training, I was flying for an airline in a Dornier 328 and in total bliss. It was such a change from the kind of flying I had been doing all of my adult life that my senses were tingling from the new and exciting knowledge.

I’m not sure I’d recommend taking on this load in one year, but I couldn’t stop myself. In a way, it was addictive — all those stickers in the mail — and I felt like I was making up for lost time. There are many possible paths to the airlines

if that is what you desire: charter, aerial survey or photography, float flying, low time pilot programs with the airlines, etc. I can only truly speak of my own path, which was instructing. I’ve always maintained that your heart must be in it if you take this route, otherwise it’s just not fair to your future students, or yourself. But there is an enormous sense of satisfaction watching each student evolve through the various stages. I still enjoy my visits to Victoria, and I always make a point to stop by the Club and see old and new faces, and of course get out in our Cessna 182 floatplane if the weather co-operates. I hope to see you there in my next visit! Many thanks to Bonnie for sharing her inspiring story and career path while juggling the challenges of raising a family!

FleetCaptainEveryone has access to ßeet status

One of FleetCaptain’s main functions is to help the dispatcher maintain oversight of the whole ßeet at all times. When looking at one type of aircraft, the 172s for example, FleetCaptain shows a detailed view of what those planes are doing. To get information about another type, the Seminole or simulator or the ßoat plane, the dispatcher goes to the tab for that type of aircraft. A concern arose that a change would happen on one tab, when the dispatcher’s attention is on another, and something of interest might get missed. The solution is the new “Activity” table. This small table is present on every tab, so the dispatcher can peruse the ßight, embargo and standby status and see the estimated return times of all planes, regardless which aircraft type is being displayed.

Pilots and instructors are often curious about the whereabouts of a particular plane. When will TLF return? Now there’s a status page on the iPad that shows today’s activity and colours the planes that are out ßying now. Scrolling right shows who’s in the plane. This saves the dispatcher having to answer a few status questions each day, smoothing their handling of pilots at the counter - especially helpful when things get busy.

The screenshots above and on the left were taken on Feb 25th, 2017 and are good examples of activity, including one plane that needs dispatcher attention because it’s later than expected coming back.

The COPA Flight 6 Board consists of:

Flight Captain (President): Rob Shemilt Co-Captain (Vice President): Allan Rempel Navigator (Treasurer): Art Reitsma

Last month’s COPA Flight 6 meeting wasn’t the usual general aviation topics about planes and pilots, but it did feature Pete Vos from Victoria Skydive Centre. Pete, who is over the top with energy, enthusiastically passed along his many years of knowledge and experience in parachuting locally, in BC, and in the United States. In all of his years of jumping he has only ever had to jettison his main chute once, resorting to his back up, and it was in front of family and friends. Although extremely confident in his parachute abilities he says "every jump is a learning experience and one should never be too over confident." Pete has jumped into many locations around Victoria including the opening

ceremonies for the Victoria Harbourcats, Esquimalt Buccaneer Days, and the Oak Bay Tea Party.

Pete covered the Canadian Sport Parachuting Association rules and regulations for jumping, what is required to be a jump plane pilot, and equipment required for jumping along with rigging the parachute. This month’s COPA Flight 6 meeting will be devoted to planning and hosting another COPA For Kids day at YYJ. This successful event was last held at YYJ about two years ago. The mission of the COPA For Kids Aviation Program is to provide a motivational aviation experience, focusing on an introductory flight in an aircraft to any youths aged from 8 to 17 inclusive. This event is a great way to introduce youth to the world of aviation, and we are looking for anyone wanting to give back to aviation by participating at the meeting as either a volunteer or as pilot of your plane. The event requires lots of preplanning, getting the word out, and logistics of putting it all together on the actual day. If you’d like to be part of COPA For Kids, please join us on Tuesday March 7th from 7:00 - 9:00 PM at the Victoria Flying Club Pilot's Lounge. You neither need to be a member of COPA Flight 6 or the Victoria Flying Club to attend.
