    High School Transcript

    Have them fax you a copy at which point you can at least present that to the recruiter... better planning next time may be in order?

    RCAF cites "Labour Shortage" In Hiring Foreign Pilots

    What issue? The overall lack of experience of CF Pilots being filled by hiring a handful of experienced pilots from other countries? I fail to see the issue.

    Allergies in the CAF 2003 - 2015 [Merged]

    Seasonal allergies are fine, nothing to worry about there. I also wouldn't worry about getting paperwork from the allergist, they'll send you to one if you require it (unlikely for hayfever).

    RCAF Leather Jacket (merged discussion and mocking)

    To be honest, I didn't give the jacket much thought either and dismissed it after seeing the "ad". I then went to the Canex for an unrelated pit-stop and they had the demo going. It changed my mind. The jacket is actually a dark "chocolatey" brown and doesn't have near the shine of the one in...

    Any plane watchers in Ottawa or airport watchers?

    I know the Alpha Jets are in town doing CAS in Pet. My guess is that's what you saw.

    2013 EX Maple Flag

    Hulk is correct, its contracted through the CATS program as a cheaper alternative for training than the hornet. "Civilian" pilots with CF EWOs in the backseat.

    The Brookfield Megathread

    My understanding, and I'm no expert, is that the CFIRP program covers the comission up to and including the pre-negotated rate (varies by province). The only time an appraised value comes into play is when the member elects to take the 80% payout in-lieu of the commission (ie. for private sale...

    Weekend pass

    Yup! Put down where you want to go, and see if it's approved. We had many members go home to Halifax and Toronto during the weekends. The other thing you should know, you MAY be able to leave the Friday after supper. That's going to depend on the staff.

    Future of the OPME program/Everything you ever wanted to know about OPME

    The question still remains... what about those who aren't quite finished the OPMEs... I myself have 2 courses left, one of which being the cheapo-easy ones. Do I rush and finish a dying program in the winter semester or wait it out?

    F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF)

    In what way though? Initial purchase or day-to-day operating cost?

    F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF)

    I agree whole-heartedly we need the F35... just not 65 of them. Either double or triple the order or find something else... like the F15E  ;D

    A new Avro Arrow (or Super Arrow) instead of the F-35 (Merged thread)

    Or... F-15Es! I firmly believe that'd be a better fit for Canada.

    Dominican Republic Vacation

    I stayed at the Grand Bahia Principe in San Juan... awesome spot to sit back and relax. Really enjoyed it. Only thing, the beach was kinda "meh". On the Northern side of the island and had HUGE sandbags in the water... which I awesome was to keep stuff out. It created a very sandy/dirty water...

    Getting help with drinking..

    There's no requirement for your CoC to know why you're not there. They'll receive notification that you'll be gone for xx days for medical reasons, that's it. You can offer that information, but that's a personal choice.
