Like Inch says, PPC is not military lingo.
CF pilots will normally fly two kinds of annual check rides.
The first is the CF Instrument Rating Test (or IRT) and has a written and a flown portion. The CF Pilot Instrument Rating is most closely equivalent to a PPL, CPL or ATPL in civy parlance. A CF pilot's instrument rating (also known as his/her "ticket") is their principal authority to fly CF aircraft, and includes general knowledge that all CF pilots must know as well as items specific to the class of aircraft flown (jet/multi/helo) during the written portion and specific to the type of aircraft flown (CC150, CC130, CT142, CH146, etc....) during the flown portion of the test. The flown portion of the test is not undertaken until open and closed-book written tests are successfully passed and corrected to 100%. After the flight test, the pilot's "ticket" is recommended for renewal by the ICP (instrument check pilot) and approved by 1 Cdn Air Div ICP. The ticket is endorsed for a specific airframe in the CF (sometimes folks may be dual-type qualified, not often...)
The second check ride flown by most CF pilots is what we call a "category ride" and relates to the operational specifics of not only the specific aircraft flown but the tactical environment it is flown in. An example would be three different CH146 Griffon pilots...one a Combat Support Squadron (CSS) pilot conduction Secondary SAR, another a Tactical Aviator flying at a Tac Hel squadron and a third, a Special Operations aviator. All three pilots would likely fly a similar IRT (see above) but they would have different category check rides relating to their operational employment. This category ride in the military is about the closest thing we have to a civilian PPC, it is aircraft-specific but goes beyond just knowing where buttons and switches are.
Good luck on your test!
