    Becoming a Pilot in the CF.

    If you were accepted under CEOTP, could you work on your degree while on OJT? I realize that they are supposed to do this part time, but I was wondering if some were able to study full time while on OJT.

    "So You Want To Be A Pilot" Merged Thread 2002 - 2018

    Just throw the word "Yo" in front of your next statement and add in the word "sick" to describe something that was "cool" in our days. For instance: Yo...Flyin' a 188 for the forces would be sick. I got my fill of youth related terminology at the mess this evening. I think I am getting the...

    Getting my military email address

    Yes - SMS is going to be used to push updates, patches, upgrades etc to the workstation.  I can't say how it will work exactly because that is not my section, but I hope they reduce the amount of time it takes to log in! They can push software and updates to the workstation without requiring the...

    Getting my military email address

    If you find this frustrating, you can imagine how I feel while attempting to configure and deploy software to the DWAN. I have learned to stop asking, "Why are we doing it this way?"  :brickwall:

    Is there really such thing as "no more room" in the entire province?

    Scout, If you are lucky, you can do some things while on PAT. It is a limited role that will allow you to put on the uniform, learn about some of the kit, attend lectures on rank structure, drill, etc. There may be other opportunities that present themselves throughout the year, but they are...

    Is there really such thing as "no more room" in the entire province?

    I know we had plenty kitted up and ready to go in the summer, but they didn't have space for everybody. I wonder if the fall courses will be the same. Anyway, keep working on your PT and hang in there. Show up to the Unit(s) you are interested in around mid September and speak to the Unit...

    Do I take the pilot offer??

    How long does GungHo have to decide? The original post was made on July 30th. Either way, it's a good thread for all of those who might be faced with a similar decision in the future.

    Research into different fitness standards for each element

    Standards are low. The sad part is while working out, I have seen many members scream and yell when PSP staff tell them that if they do the test they may die. It's interesting to see the same person come back and thank the PSP'er for opening their eyes. This of course is after they have seen a...
