They have an automated system that takes pictures of your body and determines which (if any) aircraft you will fit in. This is based on body dimensions.  Per-se, they will not discriminate against you because you are tall. However, if the system finds you too tall to fit, say, in the Harvard...

Thank you for your response. I assume the only plane I should practice with is the Cesna? Keyboard and mouse here too :P I guess it's great practice on crosschecking, I'll start tonight.

Milpoints inbound. I assume the study guide is all you need to prepare for this? Or I should get some time on MS Flight Simulator X before  heading over? Thanks for your feedback. :cdn:

Quoted for truth. My interviewer was extremely impressed by my knowledge about the role of an officer in general as well as my knowledge of my choice of trades. He actually told me to stop at one point, as I obviously knew what I was going into and he needed no more proof of this. One more...

Beat you to it! I'm very interested in what info he got as well.

Milpoints inbound. Thank you very much for the info Amarko87!

Thank you very much, I was wondering about that. MPs inbound. Getting very excited myself! I do hope I get to go to RMC :D Hope to see all of you in Kingston soon!

He'd do ROTP and get paid education while he goes to Civvy U. Also Amarko87, thank you very much for the info.  I was wondering when I'd get my CAPSS study guide. Cheers! :cdn:

... and go practice your vocabulary and spatial skills. Don't neglect those either!

Amarko, Keep me posted on when you're going to ASC. I've been following your posts and look forward to going with you. I've mailed in my last stretch of medical documents this week and should be getting news (fairly) soon regarding ASC if all goes well. Cheers! :cdn:

Sérieux, je vais te donner le meilleur truc. J'ai progressé très rapidement avec ça (passé de 20 à 30 dans l'espace de deux semaines) À chaque fois que tu penses faire des push-ups, faits-en! Même si tu n'en fais que 5 parce que c'est la 10e fois aujourd'hui que tu en fais. Donne toi des...

The experience, an amazing job, time away from home (some of us look forward to it), getting a job done properly, not aiming for a sales objective or w/e, security of employment... and the list goes on. There are a milion reasons to serve, all of which are tempting. On another note, Who else is...

Had you been over here in Montreal, we could've gone indoor rock climbing together. I've been looking for a partner for the past couple of months. Sucks Canada is such a big country :P

Yes, that's correct. I'm currently waiting to be assigned for my week at Trenton for Aircrew selection. I'm trying to get into ROTP for either Pilot / Infantry O. / Armoured O.  I truly hope to get to go to RMC Kingston-- however as I already have a CEGEP degree I would not attend St-Jean...

Hi Determined, I've read your posts accross the forums recently and I just want to encourage you as well as everyone else.  You seem to have a very strong mindset, incredible motivation and dedication-- a strong man. No doubt you'd make a great soldier, and I truly look forward to serving along...

Submitted to the CFRC.  For certain trades (i.e.: Pilot) you'd likely want to have your application submitted before the deadline, as the whole process is pretty long.  If you want to get in for 2013-2014, go apply ASAP. No applications (should) be accepted after January 15th at your CFRC.

Hey everyone, I'm sending out to everybody who's in the application process (such as myself  :P) the best wishes for the new year. I sincerely hope each and every one of you deserving candidates gets their spot in the CF! Take care, I'm off to tear down the tree  :gottree: Edit before the...

The recruiters will attempt to contact you by phone first.  If phone fails, then they will send you an offer by mail.  You must accept the offer within 10 days if I recall.  Make sure you got voicemail at home. If in doubt call your CFRC to get an update on your application.

Who do you trust more; the recruiter, or random people on the internet? Do what your gut tells you and stick to it.  You seem smart enough to come up with your own decisions.

This. I was tempted to say something rather harsh, this guy beat me to it in a gentle kind of way.  Simple and to-the-point is likely better and more professional than rambling about your ever-so-interesting adventures on this world.
