Alea, I agree with your understanding of the post 100%; that's the same way I understood it as well. In our SEM briefing this month we were also told that for our unit ASU(T), all Officer Cadets must perform the CF Expres prior to going to BMOQ in May even if we were exempt on the last test or...

I don't know if that's right. My friend's dog sometimes chased a cat and the cat's owner had a brother that was an F-14 pilot in the CF. HE said it was only 30 months; even less if you were in Air Cadets...... :nod:

Read this thread, there are many posts regarding people's experiences with training wait times. http://forums.milnet.ca/forums/threads/62660.0.html Here's some posts regarding recruiting wait times. http://forums.army.ca/forums/threads/13064/post-929420.html#msg929420 You'll see my wait time...

As DexOlesa stated, prior flying experience will not ensure a pass or fail in ASC. I would say that familiarity with flight controls (what each does and the coordination of them) will assist in your "learning curve" in the simulator. Here are a couple threads that discuss ASC in more detail...

Congratulations and good luck with the medicals.

You're right, I can't wait either! A few of us we're out this week talking about it......

May does seem really late. If I remember correctly, I was told that it was within the first couple weeks of February when I applied last year. I was applying as a "Mature" student to Civvy U and I was offered the position at the end of March. That was after the first round of selections, so I...

At the end of the recruiting process (if you are successful) you are given a job offer for a specific trade (except for RETP I believe) and after you accept that offer, an enrolment ceremony is scheduled. That ceremony is where you give an oath of allegiance and become a member of the Canadian...

Mods - please move if this is not the appropriate location. OCdt Nagy was at Recruit Camp this year in Alpha Flight. Condolences to the Khan family and hopefully a quick and full recovery to OCdt Nagy. from cbc.ca Read more...

For some reason I couldn't edit my post.... I might have the selection board confused with the ROTP selection board, but it was my impression from the RC that it was a separate board for pilot applicants only.

There is also a "Pilot Selection Board" of sorts that meets in the spring and reviews the applications. It is my understanding that even if you have successfully completed everything, you can still be rejected from the board.

Each application is unique, but I was accepted last year with V2. http://forums.army.ca/forums/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=69305.0;attach=25147

I don't know this school, but I took some Wing Chun classes in Australia and I really enjoyed it. After BMOQ next summer I am going to start them up again in Toronto. It is a unique form of Kung Fu that can be picked up fairly quickly. Most schools let you come in for a free trial lesson...
