I found that teaching itself is where I really learned the job. If you cannot explain it in simple terms to someone else, you don’t really understand it yourself.

While speaking in generalities only, given the subject matter, it is not really practical to pick which part of the submarine you are going to try to hit with a torpedo. Once you drop the weapon, it will do it’s thing, on it’s own.

I am not sure why we would replace the Tutor, either. The snowbirds fill what critical defence role during wartime?

I have a backlog of infrastructure projects where I work. 6 months ago, I was telling RP Ops things had changed and that money was available and they should start filling my work orders because they were going to be very, very busy by the fall. I got eye-rolled. Today, I cannot write work...

How much shaft horsepower you can generate isn’t the whole story for a salvage tug. Your tow rig is equally (if not more) important.

It kind of depends on where you are in the stream.

It is fun to play with numbers.

Interesting. School postings were generally 3-4 years.

Since we are doing speculation, my numbers: 44 x F35 (2 gun sqns and an OTU) 62 x Rafales (3 gun sqns and an OTU) 24 x TF 50 lead in trainers

Why do you think a posting to the School would only be two years?

It was more of a comment on the previous PM, than the current PM.

I recall that in the 1970s, my uncle worked in the oil field and had a mobile phone in his car. I thought was pretty “buck rogers” stuff, at the time.

That is not a glowing endorsement.

Quadruple it. At least…

That works for me, too.

I am deeply concerned about what happens when you start to connect 1000s of BYD cars to our electrical grid. Or their camera systems systematically surveilling everywhere they go. I am certain that there is no possibility of them being rigged in any way to cause mayhem, in the event of conflict...

That is what I read. It starts with village schools creating fake students (they are paid by the student) and continues all the way up as each district and so on up add padding to get their share of the loot.

I have no inside knowledge, but the 26 number looks to me like 3 x 6 batteries; 6 to the RCAS; 1 to RCEME School ; 1 as Tech Ref.

Honestly, I don’t know.

There is, apparently, a lot of back end work to a pay raise of the type announced by the MND, including the back and forth with Treasury Boards.
