Ahhh Yes you are correct Ostrozac,  I knew that too...... whoops! Thanks for the clarification. Cheers, Rob

DAA AFAIK if you're a MCpl or above (with PLQ obviously) you skip BMOQ entirely and transfer directly to Lieutenant.  I've seen several of these along the way in my training.  I was a Bombardier without PLQ, so I had to do MOD 2 BMOQ and was promoted to 2Lt upon completion of BMOQ.  Because of...

Kirtaries, As long as you have PLQ you will receive a CFLRS bypass, and should be promoted directly to Lieutenant.  I was an army reservist that CT'd into the Seneca Program.  I didn't have PLQ though, so I had to do MOD 2 BMOQ.  If you have any specific questions about the process specifically...

Hootbag- Yes we are required to wear our uniforms Monday-Friday.  We are mixed in with the civilian candidates who are required by the college to wear a professional standardized uniform. As such we are required to wear them as well.  It's really not as bad as you think.  You eventually get...

So far the timelines have been spot on.  Remember that the training system is currently operating very efficiently and there are virtually no wait times.  The way the program is structured it allows planning to be done for us well into the future.  It looks like we will be right on schedule for...

Actually, the Military folks do a total of 5 semesters.  Believe it or not, we've been specifically told that regardless of the academic institution, NO PREVIOUS CREDITS will be granted.  Even if you were previously a Civilian Seneca FPR student.  It's a very structured program.  s2184 -  I'm...

Just a quick update for those who are interested / enrolled in this program.  We got the word about a month ago that we would be responsible for our own rations & quarters.  It's a prohibited posting to Toronto, which means you cannot move any furniture or effects, and you're not entitled to PLD...

Sorry for the delayed response, it's been busy with all the courses happenings quickly.  To answer some of your questions; AFAIK NO, previous credit will granted towards the completion of the Seneca program.  The program is tailor made for the RCAF and you will be required to take all the same...

There are some logistical details still being ironed out, yes.  However the rest of the program is coming together quite nicely.  AFAIK there are roughly 20 or so Seneca Candidates that were recruited to start at Seneca this fall.  We are the AB-Initio batch of students, so there aren't any RCAF...

Heh.  As the old joke goes, how do you know there's a Pilot in the room?  Don't worry, he'll tell you......  >:D

Yes, the idea is to have PFT done before the first acedemic year at Seneca.  None of the Seneca candidates that I know have been course loaded yet or given any firm dates on PFT.  But it's safe to say it will happend sometime over the Spring/Summer 2013.  Cheers, Rob

Historically, yes this has been the case.  However, there is now a new CEOTP-AEADS (Air Environmental Affiliated Degree) Program that rolled out this year.  It is a partnership between the RCAF and Seneca College.  Visit a recruiting center or check the Forces.ca website for more information. ...

Hootbag, The Ab-initio batch of RCAF-Seneca students are currently just on their BMOQ or will be starting it shortly.  There are no RCAF candidates currently at Seneca, and won't be until next fall.  You could talk to Civilian Seneca Students if you like, but the RCAF- Air Environmental...

I along with at least 3 other candidates I know of start Mod 2 BMOQ 5-Dec only to go on Christmas leave on 15-Dec for 3 weeks.  So I fly out to St. Jean for 10 days of course, return home for 3 weeks, then start course again 6-Jan.  It does happen. Cheers, Rob

ET30 -  You should receive a complete BMOQ bypass.  They're getting a lot better at doing PLAR's and with PLQ complete you SHOULD and most likely will bypass St. Jean entirely.  If that's the case, you've got lots of time as the first batch of Seneca candidates are supposed to be on PFT in...

ET30 - I found out last week, and received my official offer today.  Are you CT/OT'ing or a Civvy applicant?  If you are a CT/OT and are 3's qualified then you will most likely receive an Initial Assessment Period (IAP) Bypass and will go straight to MOD 2 BMOQ.  If this is the case there is...

Well after many years of hard work, and waiting patiently I'm excited to say my CT/OT for Pilot has gone through.  CT'd into CEOTP-AEADS Seneca program.  Starting BMOQ-Mod 2 in December, with PFT to follow immediately afterwards.  Needless to say, I'm pretty excited!! Cheers, Bdr. Ofstie

I was told this year there were approximately 180 Pilot Slots total for the various entry plans.  That is an exceptionally large number of open slots as compared to previous years.  This number obviously changes from year to year based on various things such as attrition, budgets, training...

Strange your Airfactor hasn't been assigned yet.  I was told by Staff at DRCD that as a serving member your Airfactor will be assigned quicker than an off-the-street applicant as you are already in the system.  All they have to do is update your file on the DIN at your home unit.  Mine was...
