    BPPV (Vertigo)?

    Although it doesn't hurt to apply and see what the med folks have to say about it, I'm not sure if you would be accepted or not... I've been in 6 years, and for the past year I've been suffering from vertigo (migraine-associated).  As a result, I've lost my aircrew status and there is potential...

    CFR to AEC

    I can speak a bit about the Weapons side of AEC.  You would likely do your DL at your current location.  You may or may not get sent to North Bay for OJT, but it would be beneficial to spend some time on the ops floor to learn some of the checklists/RT/etc.  I've also seen it happen where the...

    BILL C-201 RCMP/Military Pensions passes second reading

    In my experience (as a former fincial advisor/banker), it's not that uncommon for pensions to have the amount reduced after CPP/OAS starts, however most pension plans call the extra money you get at the start a 'top-up'. It's sounds a lot nicer than clawback, but it's essentially the same...

    Is Air Traffic Controller a trade dominated by ex-pilots?

    I have a similar story to IBM.  I have an IT background, and most of a BSc. Comp Sci (I'm CEOTP).  A few years back I also saw a documentary where the AEC role was featured (I think it was on the military channel).  When I decided it was time to join the CF, I had the opportunity to meet with...

    Is Air Traffic Controller a trade dominated by ex-pilots?

    I would say the campaign is paying off.  I'm AEC (BMOQ in august) & it was my first and only choice...oh, and for the record I have no pilot experience either...

    How many waiting for AEC?

    I'm 36 and in reasonably good shape.  I started my fitness program about 1 yr ago when I quite smoking. I hired a personal trainer at my local gym to get me into a good program and help me develop the habit of going to the gym.  I would highly recommend using a trainer to help you get started. ...

    August 2009 BMOQ

    I would be interested in learning more about this.  I have to stop by the RC to drop off some documents, maybe I'll inquire about it...quick question though...what is OPME?

    August 2009 BMOQ

    CEOTP 2009

    I applied CEOTP for AEC last fall.  I heard at the end of January that they have a spot for me, just waiting for a slot in basic to open up.  I'm still waiting for a firm offer....

    Verbal offer of enrollment?

    I received a similar call at the end of January this year saying much the same...I was accepted and have a job, but an offer can't 'officially' be extended until spots open up in basic. I'm still waiting, and getting a little frustrated... Is this a common thing to happen, with no spots open in...
