I believe we are at 45-4600 pilots at the moment and the outlook that has been projected in the fleet meetings is around 6000 by 2025. Basically 40-50 pilots hired every 2 weeks for the foreseeable future. If a pilot wants YYZ or YUL, they will probably get it. YVR wouldn't take very long to get to...

Congrats!

I've heard a rumour that they ask you to print out your online profile with all your exam/tests from TC. Is that true? What other paperwork did you have to take with you to the interview?

After 25 years you will get a pension of around 70k per year, inflation protected and with survivor benefits. I would suggest looking up how much it would cost to buy an annuity with similar payout and then ask how you are going to get that amount in your company’s DC pension The CAF DB pension is ...

Glad to hear everyone is ok.

I know one person who was/is in the reserve and had never been through the RCAF. He was hired by 402 Sqn, was an airline pilot. He did the King Air wings course in Portage and flew the Dash 8. Do you have a name? Been around 402 for a while and haven't heard if this in recent years. He was there ci...

JcPd_flyer, Waaaay back in time I went through boot camp with a guy joining as a reserve pilot. He was already slotted to fly helos in Borden (near Barrie ON). He had to do the BOTC - basic officer training course - then 10 months of French (very very important in the eyes of Trudeau the smarter), ...

I got the same message as above from a recruiter. The recruiter was a Navy petty officer. When looking into CEOTP the navy PO said... “ you will have absolutely no clue how to fly our aircraft and we’ll need to start training you from scratch.” - I found this a bit odd. Probably because the Navy PO...

Hey all, I have a question regarding converting my military pilot license to a CPL. CARS 421.30.4.a.ii.B states that I require solo flight training post PPL to obtain the CPL. The trouble is in military training under the program I did I didn’t get any more than around 5 hours of solo, all the trai...

Are they still doing video interviews? I heard a rumor they have gotten rid of the video interview and are going straight to the in person interview

Mr. North wrote: ↑Thu Sep 12, 2019 9:54 am Equipment assignments are usually done within the last couple days of the PIT course (which is 2 weeks long). So the Sept. 9th class won't know what they've been assigned until Sept. 18-20.

I'm surprised it's that's high!

I did my interview with Encore Jan 31. Got a email for back ground check on Feb 12, reference called on same day. Nothing after that and still waiting. Am I being placed in pool as well? or just too busy to reply me?? Anyone recieved any answers from encore yet? I'm at the same point as you. Maybe ...
