    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    That is a rough day right there. Glad all the crew made it out. These type of incidents don’t always have happy endings.

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    Here’s a picture of what a buddy of mine in the fleet thinks the actual CMMA will look like. I’m proud to say that I mentioned the “bomb thingies” looked too aggressive which lead to the add-on bubble making guns. 🤙🏻

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    This. Come on GoC; grow a set. Let’s have all these “Trudeau supported news companies” all request a walk thru of this Bombardier aircraft with a camera person.

    RPAS (was JUSTAS): the project to buy armed Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE) UAVs

    Given what I’ve seen on the RPAS IOC/FOC LOT #s…we would need to make serious adjustments to the RPAS project to make this work. That means more money and personnel. To quote someone… “they're asking for more than we are able to give right now”

    Government hints at boosting Canada’s military spending

    It’s happening and will happen because they know the average voter doesn’t give 2 fucks about “defence spending”. Free wifi on public transit and a gender diverse “Amazing Race Canada”? That matters more to most Canadians from 12 Nov - Oct 31st annually.

    That, and our VP fleet will be take as seriously as it should be. Make no mistake, our Allies know how good our fleet is…or is not. We deploy with them. Ain’t no hiding when missions are CNXd on ex or ops with your friends, especially when you’re asking for bobbles and bolts from their stores…

    Or…the GoC agrees and says “we did that. Over a year and a half ago. Here’s a link to the website; feel free to ask anyone who didn’t submit a proposal to a publicly tendered RFI why they CHOSE not to…”.

    VAC wait times

    This is exactly what I did when I received notification is email that my last claim was Complete; logged in to MyVAC, matched the new Monthly amount to the PSC table, I called the Comm Center and told them I was electing Lump Dum.

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    I’ve been an end user of GDMS-C IMSs, with experience in LRP and exposure to MH ones. I hope the CMMA replacement avoids a GDMS-C IMS. Taxpayers and crews deserve better for our dollar.

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    No. The aircraft is getting old, parts are not as readily available. Serviceability just isn’t where primary SAR assets need to be IMO.

    CMMA - replacing the CP140 Aurora

    We have a bombbay and an integrated search stores dropping system. We can jump from the main cabin door (used to carry ‘chutes) and there was a specific config the pilots would fly to allow the jump. The RAAF deployed SKADs out the main cabin door. They aren’t the only ones to do it...
