Hello everyone,
I'm currently well on my way through the CEOTP Pilot application process - which I started a little late it seems. I've done quite a bit of hoop jumping (Grade 12 Physics in 5 weeks after being out of Highschool for 8 years was quite interesting) and am waiting to get listed for ASC this coming week (July 16-20).
Unfortunately, some of the hoops I had to jump through included dealing with a stubborn surgeon and a rather uncoordinated lab (forms/blood test). As such, I was a bit delayed getting the forms back to the Medical Technician and am still waiting to get the results back from Ottawa so I can get put on the list for ASC.
I'm crossing my fingers for even being listed for ASC in time (ie, today or tomorrow), let alone getting a study guide.
So my question - finally - is whether or not anyone who has gone through the process can provide a general idea as to what the Study Guide contains - unless of course you're not allowed to disclose such information.
I have a general idea of basic flight instruments (heading, attitude, roll, altitude, climb rate, airspeed) and aircraft controls, have been up for about an our of flight over the past 2-3 years and will be doing another familiarization flight tomorrow evening just to pay more attention to the instrumentation.
I understand completely if details of the study guide can't be disclosed, but I figure asking was worth a shot!
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Justin
PS - I'd like to add that I am extremely impressed by how helpful/accommodating everyone at CFRC Oshawa has been with my application process. It's been quite rushed from day one and I wouldn't have made it this far without Captain MacFarlane, MCpl Rafuse, P02 MacDonald going - in my opinion - above and beyond to assist me. Regardless of what happens, I'm very gracious to have had the experience of dealing with such professional and helpful gentlemen along the way. I cannot thank them enough.
