    Aircrew Selection/ACS (Merged)

    It is, it's just pilot has hard criteria to meet. The medical and ACS screen alot of people out. If I was a betting man, I'd say in past years about 50% of candidates that passed the medical and ACS were selected. Now I suspect it's a bit higher. INT O has a much easier bar to reach to...

    Army Communication & Information Systems Specialists (Sig Op, Lineman and LCIS Amalgamation)

    No doubt. A bunch has left, including me, and I know of at least two others that were on their way out of the trade before they were bribed to pull their applications in exchange for OUTCAN postings. Getting the run around for 7 years is long enough. Honestly I feel kind of stupid for waiting...

    Pay Question NCM to Officer from a WSE rank

    I checked for applicable threads but there didn't seem to be any. I recently changed from NCM to Officer. When I switched I was acting lacking in rank (missing last mod of a 2 mod course). At the time I did the change over I assumed that my pay would revert to my substantive rank and IPC...

    Voluntary Occupational Transfer ( VOT )

    Depending on your current TOS option 2 might not be an option for you. You can't just quit the military whenever you want. I know certain forum members here even with variable TOS where their Occupation Manager said they couldn't leave until for 6 months (because technically they were allowed to...

    Army Communication & Information Systems Specialists (Sig Op, Lineman and LCIS Amalgamation)

    CISTMs getting SPEC 2. HA HA HA HA HA HA ......... HA HA HA.... Ha. I started in the trade 6 years ago and I'll leave the trade with them still not sorting anything out. Maybe a couple of years down the road I'll get a big cheque with Spec 1 and Spec 2 written on it :P

    Aircrew Selection/ACS (Merged)

    AF 1 is only for Pilots, you wouldn't have had to go through the Toronto medical.

    VAC Return to Lifetime Pensions Discussion

    Sooner people stop pretending the legion is at all relevant to anyone under the age of 70 the sooner that relic can die and we can focus on establishing organization run by actual military veterans/serving military. Right now that space is occupied by a civilian's social club masquerading like...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    Did you read it? They found a map that some guy named Gavin Menzies says is from 1421, they weren't sure if it was real, said they'll get the test results back in Feb 2007 and we haven't heard about that story since. It's nearly universally panned as lacking any shred of reliable evidence. In...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    Should be good for another 3 or 4 billion years. Shouldn't be any threat to humanity since we'll certainly no longer be human at that point.

    Lifestyle/Marriage During BMOQ/Flight Training

    Can anyone comment on how much of a detriment it can be to live out during Flight School in Moose Jaw? I've recently got my Plt offer through SCP so I will be skipping both the degree portion and BMOQ (as I have enough to get it written off) so I'd likely just be BTL until a spot opens on PFT...

    Voluntary Occupational Transfer ( VOT )

    Did a Business degree a few years back. First applied special commissioning plan as Log O couple of years ago but got rejected  ::) I either got better at writing applications or Log O is more selective than anyone could ever predict.

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    What we have here is just a collection of ex-MWOs that are just finally excited that they've agreed on something. They've figured it out, obviously the scientists are wrong because one spot in Greenland saw more ice and it was cold here last week. It's willful blindness to the evidence that's...

    ISS and VOTs are rolling in! I'm lucky to get out of the reddest NCM trade in the Forces :) Now I just got to change my name....

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    It's really funny reading through this giant loop of people caught in a false consensus effect. 16 of the hottest 17 years on record have occurred since 2001, average ocean temps are rising (0.17C since 1969 on average), arctic ice is declining (and I know people will be quick to cherry pick a...

    Voluntary Occupational Transfer ( VOT )

    Based on my experience going through this process, and having worked in recuriting, this is bad advice. Typically you apply under different entry plans. The occupations within the plan generally all report the same time, so if you are accepted for your #1 choice, it will be given to you first...

    Voluntary Occupational Transfer ( VOT )

    I'd go with this. Put Pilot down as #1, Inf O as #2. You'll have to go to the Aircrew Selection during the application process (aptitude and the most in-depth assessment medical you'll ever get), and the pass rate is about 30%, so if you don't make the cut you can go Infantry Officer where...

    Cyber Operator trade Mega Thread

    Honestly I don't put much thought into the reserves. I spent years in the P Res and am not very convinced on value for money. I get that the reserves mean a lot to you but to others they don't matter much.
