Ahh the sims.....  They were fun!  You can even make the fire truck do touch and goes all day long, or spin the 360 degree view....  That can make a person sick! Glad to hear the course is going well, who are the instructors there now?

Its so nice there, room service, maid service.  It may sound jammy, buy airmich will be absorbing so much info and running so many sims she wont have a lot of time to spare.  I hope you know your pre course package airmich, it will help! Good luck on the course,  It will be a lot of fun!  PM me...

That could be, I will have to ask.  I know coming out of Quebec, you continue to pay Quebec tax, I've called revenue Quebec and as per that link i posted.  Do you know of any documentation with more info? Good point.  It can very quickly get complicated.  This whole system needs to be...

Alberta is the lowest rate with 10% income tax for all levels of income, compare that to any other province.  I have never lived or worked there, but the numbers speak for themselves.  I used Alberta and Quebec as an example simply because of the numbers, Newfoundland and Ontario would of worked...

I know this might be somewhat of a dead horse, but has anyone addressed how the different provincial tax rates affects CF members?  Late this year I was posted from a province with a low tax rate, to one with a very high tax rate.  As an outcome, as a family we are looking at owing into the 5...

Ahhh a history buff  ;D  I actually have my vintage pre 68 RCAF pin, that I keep in my left breat pocket, that was actualy given to me by a WW2 pilot.  The name may change, but it is still blue on the inside.  And I think my blue heart is slowly coming back. Thanks for the support i have...

WOW, its closed.  I may be shot for this, but I will kind of miss that place.  It was neat in its own way, and the radioactive green scopes were... well were very unique!

Yes we are together, which is great.  But for what’s it worth we don’t see much of each other or get quality time.  I dislike being out of trade, and yes the French barrier is very very harsh since we don’t speak any French (I posted some of my experiences in the AF - joint forum).  I felt...

Service couple instructors.... Baby on the way, "the" boss says no to posting (I have even her offered favours to go).  Service couple here teaching is very very bad.  Enough stories about 1 cf member families having troubles here due to stress, english only problems, and serous $ problems due...

Does anyone have any tricks or a good way to get posted (service couple)?  I have been trying to get posted out of a horrible posting and short of remustering, releasing, or reducing in rank (which all are on the table now), im running out of options. PLEASE HELP!!  :'(

I see this thread is a little old, but I would love to weigh in on it.  I have been an ACOP for over 6 years now, mostly on the AD/AWC side with 2 tours in the Sinai drinking obsessively while doing flight advisory. If you like outcan postings then Ad is the side to go (I cant believe nobody...

Yes it will be a LOT cheaper to runt he AGC over the UGC, in both supplies, power and many positions cut.  Not sure if I like the loss of positions, seems like it is still the in thing to cut positions and not make some new ones. As for what to do with the hole I have heard many ideas floating...

Just a small question.  Is animated avatars not allowed on here?  I'm aware of size restrictions in both image size, and file size, but a off site linked avatar still does not come threw.  Many forums do not allow members to upload many images, or of a certain size but allow appropriate off site...

Yes the "AGC" (above ground complex) as they are calling it, is open, but not fully on-line yet.  Its a nice new building with some new equipment and scopes.  And yes the old FYQ93 is still in use with that big old green screen in the UGC.  This summer is the timeframe fore the AGC to take over...
