Even better for your guys then - with the removal of the H models - you won't have three SAR squadrons plus one school to worry about.

CANAIRGEN 19/17: SUBJ: RCAF DEU COMMAND BADGE REF: CAF DRESS INSTRUCTIONS, A-DH-265-000/AG-001 1. THE ROYAL CANADIAN AIR FORCE WILL INTRODUCE THE RCAF DEU COMMAND BADGE (NSN 8455-20-010-3760) TO COINCIDE WITH THE UPCOMING CONSECRATION OF THE RCAF COLOURS 1 SEPTEMBER 2017. 2. THIS...

AAR role will disappear - at least from the current squadron that is tasked to provide. Transport will continue to be done - with SAR being the first line of tasking. Speed is arbitrary and inconclusive at this moment - if speed was the ultimate factor we would have Hornets equipped with SKADs...

Apologies for delay - I spent about 4 hours crawling over the Brazilian variant of our new CC-295.  It is superior in every way to the Buffalo - faster, more comfortable, pressurized and more room.  It's not a Herc - nor was it ever meant to be.  Airbus has built a nice package for our...

Self-loading meat bag...

I am unable to decipher anywhere that the C-295W does not meet ICAO requirements for flight into known icing conditions.  That linked article refers to the CASA entering clear icing (severe clear) and an attempt was made to climb out of it - resulting in a spin.  There are no aircraft in the...

So here's the unsanctioned opinion of a private citizen - it's better than what we currently have. Buff's are underpowered.  Hercs are old, expensive to run and way too much for what is needed. FWSAR will undergo a complete re-org when it comes to how they do their job.  Valley-shoots, close...

It's cold in the AOR - those are his winter flying gear.

Let's move on and get back to talking about the most important RCAF weapons platform purchase this decade - FWSAR.

The CAF doesn't shut down over a holiday - you can always contact your base ops, who have access to duty personnel phone numbers.  There are duty pharmacists and doctors on call 24/7.

One time - the pool was closed for 4 weeks....  <gasp>  :warstory:

Navy doesn't have arid ranks - so no executive curl.  Quite easy to mistake a Lt(N) for an Air Force Captain.

Happy to have a replacement finally on the books.  Like it or not - this is the future FWSAR. 

Is your Log Officer wearing a flightsuit or 3B?  Not for wear with LWCC - so unless you are a Ottawa staff officer, when do you plan on wearing it?

GCS-EXP Iraq 2014-08-28 to Present                      OP IMPACT              Service by CAF members inside the theatre of operations consisting of the political boundaries of Iraq and its airspace. If they flew inside Iraq airspace within that timeframe - they might be eligible.

Your eyes will be looked at by an approved Ophthalmologist who will determine if you are fit for pilot.  20/20 is fine, but if you are not V1 (or maybe V2) - it's not happening.

The system is changing - we have changed policy with DHH and are now able to order all tour medals in theatre and have delivered to home units. 

I'm sitting beside your career manager - he says you need to be fully qualified (Journeyman status, 4-5 years) - good PERs, good at your job and stay healthy.

Your Incentive Pay Category (IPC) will most probably revert to level 0 of the next rank, unless level 0 is less than whatever the member was receiving at the previous IPC (rare).

Sexy machine - didn't notice that it was podded too.
