lol, I think how you look in a tight bathing suit should be the least of your worries at basic. If you've done your job, and show up in shape, then you got nothing to worry about.

I guess it's unlikely I'll be cuddling up with a hot woman?

Man, I just saw it  :o. I'm gonna get my ass handed to me during those inspections......dust under the bed??? lol  10 days to go!!!

I'm sure his case was an exception....at least, it better be  :threat: I'm hoping that it won't take longer than 3.5 years (No SLT for me since I'm bilingual).

I'm sorry for hijacking this thread but I also had a couple questions: 1. What percentage of accepted pilots (who have completed IAP/BOTC)   actually earn their wings? 2. With no prior flying experience, will you be limited in what you can ultimately fly? Is it recommended to get some flight...

Sounds good, thanks guys  ;D

I received a call from my recruiter and he said $3,077/month. I later realized this was the base pay for a second-Lieutenant on the old pay scale (April 2003). I called back the recruiting office and spoke with my selection officer about the new pay scale. He wasn't sure and had to confirm. He...

Canada sends navy to Arctic north?! http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/4175446.stm

lol, don't worry about it man. I just pm'd you before I read this. I'm considering giving up my lease before heading to St.Jean.....unless you think it'll be useful?

Hey Astrodog, To make a long story short, I finished school 2 years ago (worked in software industry since then), applied for pilot in the CF 7 months ago, and will be going to St.Jean Sept 12. I'm 24. To increase your chances of getting in, I'd say keep those grades up, get Microsoft Flight...

Yeah, well I thought it was funny but you guys are right, as usual. Gotta suck it up and start being more responsible  :salute: From a civilian standpoint, I found this frustrating but I guess it's a good wake-up call for St.Jean! Caesar: C'etait au 800 Place Victoria. Les filles sont pas pire...

HAHAHAHA.....this is funny. So I've already been offered a pilot position and I'm heading over to St.Jean Sept 12. Sounds good......hmmmm not quite. The recruiting office calls me last week to say that I have to redo my physical because my original one has now expired. Now, I took my physical...

Nice golf course at Comox. I hope I get posted there for OJT  ;D

Just google Google Earth and download the program. You start by looking at the entire earth, then just search for a location like "cold lake, AB" and it zooms in to the exact location. Unreal!!! I can see CF-18's...even the one painted orange and black...

I'm scheduled for DEO IAP/BOTC Sept 12th and was wondering if the CF will pay for moving expenses during OJT? My main concern here is my car which still has about 3 years left on the lease. I live in Montreal so I'm going to drive to St.Jean but if I'm sent to Comox afterwards, for example, will...

I wouldn't worry too much about the loss in muscle mass. BMQ is only 3 months and if you've been training for years, you'll gain back your muscle quickly. It's all about muscle-memory!

Absolutely right. You should be in very good shape before trying this routine. My bad. I'll be the guinea pig. Running in the morning, eat, rest, hit the gym for the muscular training, go to work, eat, eat, eat.

In University, I trained for speed and strength cause I played intercollegiate soccer. Right now, I play less soccer so my goals have shifted to gain more size. Come BMQ time, I will have to re-evaluate my goals once again. It's going to suck because I know that muscular endurance is more...

I know this is a bit off topic, but will Canada actually purchase the JSF? From what I understand, we've contributed $150 million to the development (a drop in the bucket supposedly) of the JSF, but, at the same time, we've allocated somewhere in the area of $1 billion to upgrade our own F-18's...
