Melbatoast and Biggs, I'd just like to thank you for your information and responses. It ended up being the first session ever, and 3 of 7 passed.  Thankfully I was one of them.  The testing was probably similar to what you beta tested, from speaking with an MCC after wards it sounded like ...

Hey SupersonicMax, just thought of another question.  I have heard a lot about other members of the Air Force (whether it be AECs or future pilots on OJT) getting to go up in planes.  How common is this? and how difficult is it? (is it just a matter of saying, hey take me up one day, or is it...

Well, back from Trenton and passed Aircrew Selection (for AEC), not sure what's next, going to bring in my travel claim and order another transcript to reflect last semester.  I think its just time to wait now. Recruiting Center: CFRC Vancouver Regular/Reserve: Regular Officer/NCM: Officer...

I am neither, but I've already found lots to study. Did you mean psychomotor testing or psychometric testing? From what I have gathered from google I think that psychomotor is responding to questions using motor skills. And it usually tests spatial ability and/or motor skills. While...

Hey, haven't updated in awhile.  Went for my interview and was found suitable but not competitive for pilot.  I'm 23 and I've spent a lot of time travelling so none of my high school activities or grades counted. Apparently I was extremely close to making the cut and the MCC asked another...

It would make sense seeing as CAPSS was developed over 10 years and they obviously have to test the tests to make sure they work. I won't base anything on your guess, but I will take a look into it and I'll let you know when I get back.

I suppose all candidates are on level footing.  I was just hoping to study more efficiently before I arrived.

Thanks for the replies, I am not sure as to the format of the test, I think it is on computers or a new simulator, but it may include written parts too.  When I was looking up CAPSS there was a DND publication that explained a lot about it and a lot of things that I would not disclose after...

I applied for pilot, and was found suitable but not competitive, so I thought about it and went back and changed my application to AEC. AEC is the only trade listed on my application, and the first sessions of this testing was run in December.  I think two sessions have been completed. The...

I am currently applying for AEC through the ROTP program and am scheduled to go to Trenton to undergo aircrew selection. I haven't been told much about the actual simulator or testing and was hoping someone had some more information. I was told this is the first year the simulator/test has been...

Awesome post, I have a couple questions. Is your secondary duty a permanent duty or does it change? and what are some examples? (unless I read it incorrectly and being on the operations desk was a secondary duty) Is the fact that you were away so much over the last 7 months due to one time...

Good luck scriptox! Got my call today, interview booked for next Tuesday.  I'm starting to nail down all of the specifics and hope to book a mock interview session at SFU tomorrow.

Well I was preparing for my interview and I came across this page. http://www.airforce.forces.gc.ca/v2/hst/page-eng.asp?id=892 and 3/4 of the way down

That's actually the first thing I thought when I got upstairs in Surrey haha, I actually have a picture of it on my iPhone. I have never heard of or seen the aviation club, I just searched and didn't see a website for it, is there a website? and what does the club do? I probably wouldn't have...

Ah, good to know we're getting the same information.  What year/semester are you in? I had a class in Surrey last spring semester, nice campus, right by the skytrain too.

Hey Hockeyfan, It all depends on you, I have never had a problem with doing fast math, so I just studied (to get back in the mindset of doing math quickly) and had no problem, always read lots as a kid so vocab was no problem either.  I found it pretty easy, maybe a 3. Don't listen to those...

Awesome forcerecon, good luck on the interview. The urine test isn't a drug test, it tests for something else, the form you take to your doctor tells your doctor to refer you for a blood and urine test. (that's how it worked for me anyways and none of them were for drugs). I was given a sheet...

I'm in second year going to major in history and minor in psychology. I'm volunteering in a psyc lab so if you take any psyc classes and have to do studies I probably will see you. I'm at burnaby. What about you? Did the recruiters say anything about your uni choice? Like I said I tried to...

I am waiting for a call for my interview, my "application report card" is updated somewhere on this thread (page 6 I think) if you want to know the exact dates.  I had to redo my blood glucose test and it will be two weeks today of sending it in.  No idea about pilot seats, sorry.  Also...

If I am not mistaken CFAT scores count for a certain percentage of merit list score. So in having a successful application, near the top of the merit list, CFAT scores in comparison to other applicants are relevant. If I am mistaken and the CFAT score is just only listed as a pass/fail in...
