Yeah I've heard that as well, among other stories. Although it wouldn't be too far fetched that CAPSS passes carry forward indefinately. A friend of mine just completed Civy-U and is now 2LT. He is in for ATC, and had originally applied PLT as his first choice. Unfortunately for him he failed...

Actually yeah I was watching the show last night, pretty interesting stuff even if it is directed at audiences south of the border... They mentioned a few times throughout the show that it was "Dogfight Week", so I'm not sure if this means similar programs will also be showing.

I've heard mixed stories with respect to the CAPSS "checkout" being good for life... Can anyone confirm this with certainty?

Yep you can. Interesting that you applied rotp and have just finished asc.... I applied to the same entry plan earlier in the year, attended asc and passed everything. I didn't get an offer for my first choice (PLT). The rotp selections for PLT '06-'07 have already all been filled...and all...

In addition, you could check out the Occupational Transfer board on this site....there's a lot of useful (and not so useful) information on there. Just be mindful of what your reading...

Yeah formally and on the record they tell you that previous experience means nothing, but the Capt. at my CFRC told me otherwise...... I don't mean to say that it helps with ASC, because quite honestly the little time I had before I went to Trenton (maybe about 5 hours) only helped in...

Neri, Just curious...what was your flight related experience at the time you applied?? Did you have a PPL? Commercial? Air cadets? Reserves? Ect.

Its extremely competitive. Remember that although  you've done well on what you listed, you still have to get through ASC and the medicals which a lot of people cant do... I was in the same boat a few months ago, having made it all the way to the end being eligible and thinking that I had a...

Sorry I guess I should have painted a picture of my situation a little more..... ArmyRick, I'm currently an AirLog in 3rd year civie-U. I don't know much about the different plans and processes, and I also realize and understand that I would likely have to put in some time in my original entry...

THanks for the responses guys.. Is the OT selection process similar to how offers are initially made when first applying to the military (from my understanding a merit list system)? How would one enhance his chances of being successful? Any suggestions? Also, when is a good time to initialize...

Just wondering if anyone here knows how the OT process works, and what the odds of actually being successful in doing so would be? Do you compete for the same positions with existing entry plans, or are there slots set aside for applicants already part of the military??

Hey guys, I'm in a real hardspot here and was wondering if I could get some advice; I applied for 1. PLT, and 2. Air LOG (both ROTP). Didnt get picked up for PLT on the first board (and as such I'm going to assume I won't get an offer this year for PLT). Now LOG applies a lot to what my current...

Hey guys, Just wondering if any of the ROTP applicants this year have received an offer yet? Or if anyone here on these boards that has an insider in Log or whoever handles offers has heard about anything coming down the line sometime soon? The anticipation is just killing me.......even if I...

When I had my interview earlier in the year I was told there were 50 slots for ROTP, 50 for DEO, not sure about CEOTP as the entry plan was "closed" at the time....however seems that wasn't the case... As for numbers who apply.....I couldn't tell you.......it is one of the most (if not the...

I know ROTP is seperate from DEO, but just contueing with the theme of this post....... I called my CFRC today to check if any ROTP offers had come in, and they said that they were still waiting to hear........I'm guessing closer to the end of the month, maybe even April.

+1 to that.

Good for you man..... im thinking i should have applied to ceotp in addition to rotp.......just i was under the impression the entry plan was closed....... now i just gotta hope the  board picks me up for rotp..... congrats.

theres another thread...... "Any offers from jan. pilot selection board?" have a read through that..... CAPSS really isnt that hard.......just pay attention and make sure ur completely alert during your sim sessions. The nav test is VERY hard, or at least for me it was....(failed...

Another question.... After receiving military training, is there any program that exists where one could transfer their hours towards a civilian rating? For example, if someone has 0 hours in the civilian world, but has accrued 1500 hours on a multi-engine in the CF, can you transfer these...

Interesting.... Now what about Helo guys that have put in their 20some years and pension out.....are they attractive prospects for police forces? I know here in Toronto they've got one or two choppers...........must be pretty competitive for those types of positions...but with that much...
