    CEOTP 2009 Info/Questions

    Mr. Wonder, Your best bet is to review your offer should you receive one. At that time, you can go over the fine print to be sure. The pay and promotion question concerning CEOTP and how it will be applied to each individual has been a grey area for some time - trust me on that one. I recommend...

    CEOTP 2009 Info/Questions

    For what it is worth, I have two friends who enrolled through CEOTP. Both became 2nd Lt immediately after completing BOTP. A number of years ago, it seems you remained an OCDT until you were MOC qualified; I don't think that is the case anymore. Good luck.

    "So You Want To Be A Pilot" Merged Thread 2002 - 2018

    I held on to that last year and later learned that there were only five CEOTP spots available to serving members. 1.5 years and counting.  :-\

    College Schedule and Reserve

    We also paraded during the week in addition to BMQ weekends. As mentioned earlier, it was a review of the previous weekends where we practiced drill, comms etc. There were also additional events including parades, ceremonies etc. that we were able to participate in. It depends on your Unit. Some...

    College Schedule and Reserve

    Definitely two weekends a month if you are on a weekend BMQ course. As mentioned, the bulk of reservists are students. Good luck.

    Joining Infantry, but ive been waiting six months so far.

    Just hang in there and use this time to your advantage. While you are waiting, work on your physical training, your education etc. You haven't been told "no" at this point and things could be much worse. Good luck.

    How to get family on board

    Good grief. If you are greater than 18 years of age, why does any convincing have to happen? I understand that you want them to support you, but you are not asking them to sign a permission slip so you can go on a field trip. Cut the cord & good luck!

    Hawk 1 - The Sword Flies again !

    I live just at the end of runway 25/07 at CYOW. I had the treat of seeing Hawk 1 do some formation flying with Challenger14 as well as some overshoots a few minutes ago. What a sight! I love living near the airport.

    Recruitment Statistics...

    Why worry about it? As far as I am concerned, any answer should mean nothing to you. What are stats going to indicate to you? If you heard 30% receive offers what does that mean to you? You have no idea how you stack up against the others or what side of the percentages you would fall into. Just...

    The Reserve Thread- A Merged Collection of Q & A's

    For what it is worth, we had a lot of recruits ready to go on course last summer, but only a handful went because there were so few BMQ spots available.

    The Reserve Thread- A Merged Collection of Q & A's

    Definitely. It just depends on what you are looking for. Opportunities are presented to you and others you may have to request and or work for. There is an education reimbursement for Reservists for post secondary studies. I believe it is up to $2000 to a maximum of $8000. With this, you have to...

    Where I stand ?

    As my MCC said to me, "The CF is full of people who wanted to be Pilots." Add "ASC" and "CAPSS" to your search. Good luck.

    Gnr Keyes-Oliver - 30 Fd Regiment - Killed in Training Accident in Petawawa - 25 Oct 08

    This hits close to home; I used to be a Bytown Gunner and I have several friends in 30th Fd. The names of those who were involved sound very familiar. My condolences to Gnr Keyes-Oliver's friends and family. A speedy recovery to those who where injured.
