After watching the CC-130's and CC-150's at Trenton, I can imagine how awesome it'll be to see the Globemaster there. I've heard about the civilian Ukranian transport guys bringing CF munitions to Afghanistan while cooking on a propane bbq. It'll be nice to replace them with our own pilots and a/c! 

Previous flight experience doesn't matter much. Someone on my ACS course failed, and he was very close to completing his commercial licence. Flying at a local airport is fun as heck, but I think a PPL or CPL is only important to the recruiting process if you need to attempt ACS again. If I can...

Yes, I passed for pilot and navigator. At Downsview, they take a picture of your body against a blue screen which determines which CF aircraft you'll fit into. I'm a 6'00" fit male, so I had no problems fitting into every CF a/c. If you make it to Downsview, the medical selection team will...

I did ACS with two candidates who already had pre-ACS offers this month from RMC (one a pilot, one a nav). When they attended the CFASC, neither of them passed. The strangest thing is that the candidate with the RMC pilot offer was well under the minimum height requirement to be a pilot in the...

I only knew about ACS dates when my CFRC told me when I could attend ACS. I had to wait several months, but I finally got through it!!!

Do well in adult school and apply for the CF. You'll find out if you're good enough if you pass the CFAT...

Congratulations SupersonicMax. Thanks for your info on "flight circuits during OJT", and good luck in Moose Jaw!

CasperTr11... when is your BOTC start date? A CEOTP getting 32U this time of year seems a little strange considering the news from the CFRCs and people on this board. Can you fill us in with a little information? BYW... Congratulations!

CEOTP and DEO pilot slots won't be open until the new fiscal year in April '07. This was covered in previous posts.

I've been very impressed with AVG and McAffee. I tried other programs, but none quite compare.

World Computer Exchange is a good idea. I have enough parts to make a Celeron 533 and a Pentium III, so hopefully someone in a third world country will find them useful...

If you find it, post that link for computers for third world countries...

Hey Bzzliteyr, I have a Celeron 533 CPU (chip/motherboard) with 512 MB of RAM in it and a few 6 GB harddrives just sitting around in my basement. I also have a Celeron 333 CPU lying around. If these sound good, just PM me. I live in Toronto.

"It's a Wonderful Life"... nothing beats that one for me!

That would be very interesting to see! Now concerning that brash article... I think a no-name reporter's harsh criticism such as Lawrence Martin's desperate story in the Globe and Mail is a significant sign to what the Conservatives have done over the past year. If a Liberal-supporting...

Do all the calculations in your head when you go through your Math book. If you really need to, allow yourself to use a scrap piece of paper. Obviously never use a calculator, because you won't get one on the test. Math should be your main focus when you study, but remember not to ignore the...
