Pat,  mentioned that she was built to civillian standards. From your brief tour were you able to get a feel for her DC capabilities or lack of them?

I think you are right....I think they sold us a big song and dance. Sad to say I think we are triple f#cked the next election. Where is the zombie apocalypse when you need one.

I think The Conservatives have pretty much lost the Military vote.

As much as I would like to support a Canadian shipbuilding industry, the sad fact is there are too many fingers in the pie to make it viable. Its a sad state of affair when it almost takes decades to get a hull designed, built and to the fleet when other countries it can take less then 5 years.

Sadly I don't think myself or many of my peers are too optimistic we will see new and for that matter capable hulls hitting the water from Irving or Seaspan anytime soon.

As in the CDS?

Lately with the PCs I think we have been taking 1 step forward and 4 back; if the Liberals get in, it may be 1 forward and 8 back. :/

I'd vote for this. It would give us enough utility for the missions we have been called upon in the last number of years. IMO OPVs belong with an "armed" CCG. FELEX, CSC and Kirkhills CSC variants would be a nice mission enhancer for Canada and our coalition partners.

I know Leverams has them but does anyone know of anyone else who carries them? Thanks.

Cutter is a term left over from the days when the USCG was the US Revenue Cutter service as well as used for smaller sailing vessels. Cutters used in naval/coast guard ops from my experience can be up to frigate size (check out the National Security Cutters)

Just curious of what source you read for this configuration?

I thought I saw on the gunnutz site back in the spring it was deemed non restricted. Your best bet thought I would say is contact the RCMP/CFO

Used with permission from MARS who gave a poster some fantastic advice. Names removed to make post more generic. So, username123  it appears you have fallen prey to the age-old challenge of having made a bad first impression.  There is a reason that the saying "don't judge a book by it's...

No MARS types sit down as SACS now. Its on of those types of quals that gets downgraded every year if you don't have any control time.

Looking to replace a pin that was given to me in Fort Riley many moons ago. If anyone can help me out pm me please. Thanks! :)

We have several RCAF pilots and aircrew that post here on a regular basis, they seem to do well without a dedicated pilot forum. If you have any questions, concerns etc they are more then forthcoming with responses. :) Milnet.Ca Staff
