Thanks for the quick replies guys. I Live by the University; Bathurst and College area. Stuck relying on TTC! I have no particular preference, obviously would like to join an Air reserve unit but that seems impossible given my lack of personal wheeled transport! Just looking for something fun...

Howdy All,   Just found out that I didn't make the cut for ROTP - pilot this time around; so looking at improving my application. I would like to help myself out by joining a reserve unit. I looked up the list of reserve units in Toronto, and not surprisingly there are a bunch of them! I also...

  True, I am also roughly 6'1'' and didn't fit the Griff or JRanger...

I think this part is working against me, I always wonder whether they strictly look at marks or at institutions as well? Cause shirking at another institution and pulling down 80s sounds pretty darn sweet when I am here working my tail off and getting mid 70s...

seems counter-inuitive that they would subsidize you to get a civie lisc. just to have you start at square one at BFT.

All 3 others that passed ASC with me back in October just received offers and start basic as on Apr 16 as well, 2 pilot 1 nav... Now I'm just waiting for the ROTP results!!

Is there any particular reason for it?

what exactly IS aircrew allowance?

Ahhhh ok, it must've been the same software just applied to different hardware. They did have a Sea King driver taking it for a hop but they also showed a JetRanger VR cockpit.

Inch,   I think I saw that sim featured on daily planet, the one in the full motion jetranger mockup cockpit? Guess it doesn't matter what it is once you strap the VR goggles on. I also caught an episode of 'truth duty valor' featuring the mighty Sea King; they dedicated a large portion to the...

Not sure if it has been mentioned, but the Aussies have just cancelled a replacement search for their Caribou and have extended their lives until at least 2010.

I barely used the rudders for that very reason. The rudders are not self centering so I really focused on just trying to center the ball perfectly at any particular power setting then just going back to the usual crosscheck. The output graph for the ball is very sensitive and mine was off by...

LOTS of free time in Trenton, which is really nice. It wasn't too cold out when I was there in October so I had alot of time to run/keep up with school work and found a nice spot on the way to the offbase CANEX to watch some Herc movements.

Miscomm, I was talking about the cog test at the DRDC.. they gave you your score, it was only some obscure fraction which lower meant a better score. We only get the pass/fail from CFASC as well.

I had the highest score out of my group  ;D  ... but one of us failed it the first time and they told her that it didn't count towards the medical, which I find confusing as she HAD to redo it, so I came to the conclusion they just try and take the pressure off of the who is partaking in the test.

They tell you the cog test doesn't count towards your medical, do they just say this to take the pressure off?

what do they keep you guys doing on non-flying days?

Everybody save myself had been forwarded money on my course back in October; one drove from Kitchener and one flew from Winnipeg. Then again, 4 out of 10 of us passed so maybe they received it because our propensity to pass was higher  ;D

We didn't get our urine done back in oct. minor issue, I know.
