Good Day all, A short while ago I was trying to decided which way I was going to go with my flying career.  Canadian Air Force, or civilian.  I Chose to go the civilian way.  I have no regrets, however, I'm now considering the Reserves.  I really know nothing about the Reserves, and thats why...

Yes, I would love to serve my country.  However, that would just be a bonus if a joined the CF.  It's also a career move (also flying is my passion).  So I have no intentions of joining the infantry. I suppose you read my mind.

Is CEOTP open?

I'm just curious what kind of duties you have?  What exactly do they have you do for work (do you have a choice?)?  Also you mentioned you get to fly, does that mean you are up in the aircraft tagging along or are you actually piloting an aircraft?

Wow, thats a long time!  What do you do while OJT?  Do you have a lot of free time to do your own things?

How long is OJT usually?

Thanks

Acutally, I'm quite happy  :)!  Just wondering what OPMEs are?  Also, can you clarify your point on finishing university if CEOTP.  Are you saying that if you were in CEOTP that you would go back to school instead of OJT?  Just curious because I'm considering CEOTP (and comments on CEOTP would...

Thanks!

Good point, but do you understand what I'm saying?  I find it quite annoying when I ask for help and someone responds with a completely useless or unproductive comment.  I appreciate the fact that you've been in the forces for 14 years.  There's no need for sarcasm.  I'm sure you're quite...

Thanks very much for the help! This is not the first time that someone has made the comment as to myself getting ahead of things.  All due respect, I think you're 100% wrong.  I think it would be very stupid to make such a large comittment with out knowledge of all aspects of the CF.  So I'd...

Is that a no then?  No people in the CF have ever gone to more than one location?  Also, what is the purpose of OJT?

Hi everyone.  I was wondering if its possible to go to more than one location while you're on the job training?  The reason for me would be that I would like to experience more than one aspect of the CF.  If you go to one location like Cold Lake, you get to see the Fighter Planes (which is...

What aircraft are included in transport?  I assume it would be the Airbus and challenger?  What kind of trips do these aircraft get to do, and how often?  Are there quite a few international flights with these aircraft?

Thanks SF2.  In the time that you're not flying what are you usually doing (debriefs/briefings etc?)?  Is it enjoyable work?

Can you tell me a bit about flying the Griffon?  How do you like flying it?  I'm curious what your day to day life is since you're looking at around 250 hours a year?  Do you usually fly every day?  Where are you based, and do you work a lot with people in the army.  Basically just curious what...

What are you flying on right now?

Do the 180-200 hours the CF-18 pilots acquire include exercises such as Maple Flag, and the one that takes place in Hawaii every year?  Also curious as to how many CF-18 pilots and other pilots in the CF are able to participate in those exercises.

Hi, just wondering what MOC is?  Also, I'm asking questions like this so to give me a greater understanding of what’s in the air force, what you can do in the air force etc.  I'm asking other questions too.  The reason to gain this knowledge is to help me in deciding whether or not to commit 9...
