Did he wear a diaper?

Arty, will I being seeing you at the mega come sept? You can guide a new fish like me through the process!

Does Canada still plan to replace the coastal patrol duties of the CP-140 with UAVs such as Germany has opted for and move the CP-140s to the arctic sovereignty arena?

I can second that; know a CEOTP pilot that remained an Ocdt until he was winged. But the catch was that he went directly to Lt. and received all his 2Lt. backpay in a lump sum; sorta like a forced savings plan. Also he was to remain Lt. for 8 months longer than the DEO/ROTP folk before being...

CEOTP Pilot.. taking the train up from London, Ontario. Excited to start... even more excited to finish!

myself.

Nice painting, though I wish they had used our current CF-18 scheme as opposed to the US F-16 scheme... also missing a dummy canopy!!

GS,   thanks for the pics; the combination of seeing what that thing can do at an airshow this past weekend and seeing 'Canada' on the side of one actually took my breath away... Such a proud moment; I can't wait to hopefully one day get my hands on one!

Howdy gang,   Did a search and couldnt find anything specific regarding pilot measurements done at the DRDC. Do these measurements stay on your file, or are they just used to eliminate those who are too large or too short for more than 2 trainers? I'm not the 'I didnt fit the hawk, are my...

I hope this doesn't go where I think it'll go..

it's on all week in the 8-10 slot... great show, even if it is yank-centric...

question answered? Fact... I got a 2 Nos including a ROTP no before I got my offer for CEOTP last week. Thought it would never come, but if you want it bad enough it will come.

Howdy All,   Finally got my offer; CEOTP pilot.. is anybody on here intimately familiar with the entry program and if so could they pm me?

  Sorry, I got lost in the acronyms. Last I saw was the 0/0 for DEO/CEO, you're saying that there are now CEOTP slots open?

Pilot CEOTP was 0 as well when I stopped by the CFRC on tuesday! Does anybody know if this is due to the backlog in training or just no need for pilots right now?

From talking with a Superhornet driver, the Es and Fs are hornets on steroids; not only is the aircraft larger but some of the design features are distinctly different (very obvious if you see a 3-view).. larger wing area (relatively of course) and larger control surfaces that allow it to be one...

  If you're talking about the 18E and Fs then you are wayyy off... they are pretty much new planes..

Zoomie,     What is there that goes above the basic airwork that one would do in the civie world? 4 months does seem like a long time.

Raptor also just flew its first 'official' demo this past weekend at langley; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAp5EVjucEs Also, if you're looking for more info on the Raptor check out the fencecheck forums, there is a some 30 page discussion there dedicated to the -22 and straight from the...

The Russian SU-37s and Mig-29OVTs don't give much more than cute airshow demos. They can definately outfly a CF-18 or any other 4th gen kit but you have to remember that during these airshows they are modified and carrying very little fuel/weight.. no way they could do it to that extent with a...
