I have a few questions about reserves, their arrangements with current employer, salaries and benefits etc. Perhaps easier to just stop by recruiting office... Anyways, I have a serious job, something I cannot miss a day, unless my absence is arranged with a substitute. I wonder if it is worth...

This is question to stuff mostly.  I know air cadets in BC continiously having trouble finding glider instructors.  Funny thing is - I am having trouble finding who is taking applications so to speak.  Can someone please (this board here is the last resort) connect me with the right person?  PM...

I am very thoughroughly disgusted with the way you conduct security clearance business.  I visited recruiting office for the first time when I was 37, too old as I thought back then.  Well, how naive was I.  Now, 27 month later I got message on my phone that there will be another inquiry that...

I wonder if there are any soaring pilots among you people.  I logged almost 20 hours in glider in last four days, 5 hours on the average daily.  Soaring conditions were so great, staying up wasn't a question.  Is there any chance for a pilot in CF to fly gliders on his free time?  Any soaring...

As my security clearance drags on, I went to flying school to poke around for civilian options.  My contingency plan was (is) to get instructor's rating and instruct part-time till my tuition is paid off or airline company picks me up.  So, I sent a few e-mails with questions and responce was...

It is rather academic interest at this point but would that matter if I am 190 lbs?  Or should I drop it down to somewhere in the middle of the bracket?  Its all pure muscless though, will hate to let them go...

gentlemen,  is there gym on every base?  If there is, can it be used during your normal "working" hours or do you have to go there on your spare time?  I kinda got into routine for last 6 years and can't think of quitting anytime soon.

Hello people Questshshn:  how do I get time off if I am woking very much?  Or should I say big time.  I work in an outfit that depend on people like me to operate and scheduling replacements is not an easy thing to do and my days off almost never when I want them nor they are of the right...

Hello people, I was always wondering what do pilots do when they are all done flying for a day.  I mean, is there any non-flying duties they are assigned to?  Briefing, de-briefing, pre flight checks - this is all understandable - anything else?  Like aircraft maintenance co-ordination or parts...

I spoke to my girl about possibility I will join forces.  Its all big IF as of now but I decided to let her know - she seems to be in love with me, migh as well know what she got herself into. Anyways, she was turned off big time at first.  A bit of "you have to decide what you want - me or...

Hello people, I know it has been discussed on some boards here how new pilots get into one of the category - jets, multi or helicopters.  My question is - if one ended up, say, multi - then what?  Is it that he gets to train on type and then flies this type of aircraft only?  Are you assigned...

Hello gang I turned 39 this months.  I wonder if there are other pilots who started their career in AF at about my age.  And if yes, please say how did your training go.  I do not mean physical fitness part of it - this is the easiest part.  Midlife career change, learning process, unlearning...
