Each trade has its own medical standard - if you breach those standards DMCA 2 will look at your file and conduct an Admin Review. As long as you don’t breach UoS, they may come back and recommend retention with restrictions or COT is staffed. If you breach UoS, you can request a Period of...

If your PCAT MELs breach UoS, you can be offered a Period of Retention to April 2025. They are redefining UoS in the meantime - if you are still in breach under new criteria, you will be released under 3(b). Essentially the new UoS will lower the bar on medical requirements, however will...

Still policy today - can’t deploy without updated C19.

All seeing, all knowing….

there are four ”gates” spread out over the 20 incentive pay levels for Captain (pilot). Each mbr only needs to pass through each gate once in their career - usually each gate involves progressing significantly through milestones associated with being a Pilot. There are no “gates” for Major...

G2G - do you have a NSN or anything. As Wing ALSEO, I am interested to see what our supply can do for our two piece crews. Separate topic - new high viz ranks for RCAF. Scuttlebutt from CWO network is that zoom suits will simply just use DEU rank slip ons- any FR concerns about those...

Heck I don’t even fly a plane anymore - I still have an EFB. Pretty sure every fleet has some iteration of use in service.

No room for 5x737NG at QQ. Maybe they go and hide out with the A330 fleet?

That’s literally what it does. Numerous inferences in this thread about PAL and TC Dash-8s doing maritime surveillance tasks for the GoC - they are doing that on a civilian airliner adopted for that use. The 295 is purpose built for this task. I suspect that we will be using these...

Or we use the Kingfisher…

Is AOC a PD requirement for CA Majors? JCSP isn’t even needed until Colonel - I didn’t think there were PD requirements for promotion to Major.

Better hurry up - Boeing is shutting down P8 line “soon”, IOT start cranking out E7 wedgies

Infrastructure is a CAF wide problem. I work in a Hangar built in the 1950s - it is expected to collapse during a significant seismic event. We have no plans to replace this building - we just keep upgrading the HVAC and electrical. lipstick on a pig.

FWIW the J-SAR implementation is a bit of a shit show too. TEF still has its work cut out. Crews need to learn how to plan on the go vice on the ground.

Reserve or RegF? What MOSID? Security clearance expired a “few times” in a 7 year window? Level 2 is valid for 10 years. lots of questions about this…

Some confusing messaging being sent by CMP at the command conference in Ottawa last week. First Sentence : focus on retention and building the force. Second Sentence : medical retentions will cease.

$1,000 for my $200 trunk gun? I can let them buy back the ChiCom POS and keep a Tula or two….

146 SAR OTU will move out of Gagetown, completing de-linking from the TAC-smell world.

One of my buddies from BOTC and pilot training went on to be a SeaThing Pilot and is now a Sgt SARTech.

FWIW that graphic about fleet serviceability is garbage. All aircraft undergo maintenance - they are certainly not considered “out of service” or whatever label they had. SAR is mandated under the NSS to have one (1) LOT assigned to each region they support. By no means do the CH-149...
