In 2017 my Squadron went down to USMC Air Station New River, and I remember the first time I went up to their UH-1Y Venom saying, "Now I know what people mean when they say we have a civilian helicopter painted green..." I don't think the RCAF will look to replace the Griffon until at least...

Mmm... the pilots who fly it seem impressed. Walk before you run. Source? Now you're comparing the most advanced Fighter in the world to a helicopter.... from 1960. If it wasn't then people would ask why, being so advanced. Good thing we wont be getting it for another 5 years. And we'll...

For a moment there I thought you were talking about Red 6's augmented reality. Wait until that comes into play. Podcast: https://www.fighterpilotpodcast.com/episodes/079-advanced-training-methods/

A very short term benefit for a long term mistake... hopefully the fact that Canadians have already made money from the F35 plays a factor.

So the "Super Hornet Interim Buy" turned into the "Slightly newer Legacy Hornet Buy"?

Congratulations! I think it was you I was mentioning haha! LOG - SEA? Also, someone got an SCP offer for Sigs Officer. There was a comment on reddit that CFB Greenwood (14 Wing) posted a Town Hall on the MFRC page, and spoke about career changes. The Wing PSO said that the Intake Number has...

As of now, they want to keep the Hornets operational until 2032.

Someone on the Canadian Forces Reddit forum just got an offer for SCP!

Is that what that thing is between the vertical stabalizers?!? I always wondered why some had it and some didn't. Thank you! :)

I agree. Paid education plans will roll out first due to the administrative complexity. Even after seeing the RCAF SIP, I still have a small amount of hope. (Once the CANFORGEN comes out for the new ISST, I'll make a new thread so that people with questions about the process can ask there)

I can't see it that well, but the magazine I have has a leaf. I just assumed the image I found had RCAF roundels. Oops!

F-35A with RCAF paint scheme from Canadian Defence Review magazine. Looks good. https://twitter.com/CDRmagazine/

Welcome to the forums JJBS. No, I haven't heard anything. Like you, I've only heard UTPNCM offers.

The use of "proscriptive" here is meaning it's restrictive. Not scrapped. But they want to switch to Embry-Riddle Online Univeristy. This is not related to external I believe. But my most recent post shows they want to reduce intake all together. Looks like I'm going for UTPNCM for this years...

Backlog of Pilot BTL requires significant reductions in Pilot recruiting (already started in FY19/20). Total intake 16/17: 152 17/18: 134 18/19: 145 19/20: 106 20/21: 85 21/22: 62 22/23: 70 23/24: 100

I just read a Word document on DWAN (airforce.mil site) and it's titled "Pilot Council Open Action Items 09 Dec 2019" and for year 2018/19, 2. k) it says "Proscriptive CEOTP". After googling the definition of "Proscriptive" it looks like they want to scrap CEOTP. Not sure if this is internal...

This update was made a day after the BPSO contacted me.
