I wouldn't consider OJT as being "actively engaged in formal training"...

I'd also heard the rumour that new AEC's weren't being tossed into VFR

Thanks for the information - I've been quite aware of the main posts on AEC in here, and wasn't aware of the Capt. promotion period.  I appreciate it though!

Thanks for all the information - I was wondering if you could give some insight into the general promotion periods for AECs?  As in around what times in your career you should expect to be promoted to Lt./Capt./etc.  Thanks for any help!

As Celticgirl already knows, I'm in for AEC as well.

Absolutely!  I'm looking forward to being in tip-top shape come the end of April!

I just wanted to congratulate Celticgirl on her dream finally coming to fruition!  good job! Also Kruggle, driving through Northern Ontario in the winter is hella brutal.  I'm also looking forward to doing BMOQ in the winter, as the extra layer of clothing will provide that extra little bit of...

Well the finish is finally here!

Well I'm in, just have to accept the offer!  Jan. 5th like the rest of you... finally! The phone call was pretty surreal actually - I remember like 1/18th of what was actually said.

January you say?  I just got a call from my CFRC yesterday and am going to call them back in a half-hour.  the woman said she had some good news for me on the phone...

Yeah, I found it really interesting as well.  Particularly the seemingly low fines people get for somewhat serious offences.

Any higher-ups know how many slots are left in the September 1st course?
