As someone who is trying to get in under ROTP (just passed ASC!) I have been reading this thread with great interest.  I'm just wondering what you guys would think of having a purely military academy, similar to Sandhurst in the UK.  Sandhurst allows the British Army to turn out officers in...

I looked up this "Brass Rail" establishment, it looks very entertaining indeed >:D Well I'm off to Vancouver tomorrow, thanks for your responses all.  Not sure if the hotel in Van. has internet, so next time I check back I should be in Trenton! Planes

If I'm not mistaken they're retiring the cool tanks!  ;D Sorry, couldn't help myself......... Planes

Well I'm off to Aircrew Selection Centre this week  :D After a briefing in Vancouver on Friday I'll be going on to Toronto then Trenton, arriving in the wee hours of Saturday morning.  Aircrew Selection doesn't start until Monday so I'll be basicaly left to my own devices for the weekend (as far...

Thats good to know, Thanks Kincanucks! Planes

A while back a Sgt. from the CFRC called and left a message on my voicemail, he did that.  Made me laugh because I do it often, but only on the radio.

That Grob 120 is a pretty impressive looking aircraft, 260 hp, retractractable, great avionics for an ab initio trainer (or any trainer for that matter), air conditioning, and fully aerobatic to boot! Pleave forgive my salivation.  ;D  Have a look at that panel...

I don't think that a shirt and tie is necessary for the interview, I spoke with the LS again today and he said it was more of a briefing about ASC, but I'll dress nicer than my usual jeans and T-shirt anyway.  I'm going to be at ASC from April 18 to 22, anyone else have those dates?

The CFRC called me today and said that I had a choice of three dates for ASC, April 11-15, 18-22, or 25-29, plus an additional day in Vancouver to speak with a Military Career Counselor.  I told them that any of the dates will work for me, so Borden will book me into a course, and they will get...

I haven't heard anything yet, but I'm waiting anxiously!

I've only ever dealt with Vancouver, and personally I have received great service, both at a remote, and at the CFRC itself. Planes

http://www.mosquitohammock.com/  I don't own one, but the bottom one on the page looks good, camo too!  They say they designed it for the FFL, personally I just want to do some camping like the fellow who slung his under the wing of his airplane at the top of the page. Planes

Work harder - Eat less.  For all of the exercise advice out there, thats what it really boils down to.  If you want to lose weight you must expend more than you consume, its that simple. Planes

My condolences to the families and co-workers of the fallen officers.  I was really impressed to see that even the flag at Save On Foods here in Prince George was a half mast.  My best friend is a paramedic in northern Alberta, he knew all of the officers that were slain, by his account they...

I have two, a petzl MYO, with both led and halogen bulbs, and a black diamond (forget the model offhand) LED.  I wouldn't get one that is just LED.  They're not bright enough to safely walk with, but they're great for just reading or looking in your pack, and they're extremely light.  The MYO is...

They would be for provincially examinable subjects (i.e. math, english, etc.).  I got 400% in guitar 11, but unfortunately it couldn't be counted toward my overall average.

Well I had the documents sent Purolator yesterday (I was able to round up two ROTP letters of reference, 2 regular letters of reference, university transcripts and finish my ROTP questionnaire in less than four hours) they received them this morning, the Cpl. who is handling my file called me...
