I have a pay question. I’ll try to be brief. -Was ResF (not spec) CT/OT to AESOP at IPC4 -Completed QL5 @ 402 and was posted. Glitch in the pay system didn’t allow them to give me spec pay. In the meantime WngOR is going to manually pay 80% of back pay owed (almost 12mo) and 80% of current...

Doubt that I do not [:D

Been out on a couple of courses for my first time in Winnipeg the last couple of weeks. Been a good go, and can't wait to start my 3's (don't know when yet). But these initial aircrew courses have been a nice way to ease into the RCAF. Back home in a couple of days. Gotten to speak with some...

My first couple of weeks in blue have been pretty great. Even though I'm in the same building/office space, so much has changed. Just doing monkey work, inputting data for RFE's and lifts, but I'm learning a little of how the RCAF works. I've got a great CoC, and colleagues, and am the only NCM...

Already did BEW while I was waiting for my CT. Though I should review again for a refresher, as memory dump often occurs when not using the knowledge learned. Yes I have the RCAF Manual with workbook. Sent to me by a former colleague who is now at the school. I was wondering about this as it...

Just wanted to share. I've been wearing blue now since last week! Everyone is so used to seeing me in green, it's funny to see their reactions. I feel a weight has been lifted off my shoulders....can't wait to get loaded on course and start learning. Starting to study up on some MET stuff in the...

I don't know if I'll be able to live under such conditions. But you did yours a while ago right? So I'm sure things have improved.  [:D

I didn't want to assume anything for course though.

OK, so then I have to ask. Double or quad quarters on course? Not that it matters that much.

I'm not worried about once I start training...we're prepared for that. It's the time beforehand we are hoping for. Looks like it's getting ironed out now. If I had a preference it'd be LRP....but I know I'll likely just have to take what I'm given.

Thanks. That helps with the decision on what to bring with me.

DWAN with DVPNI though, correct?

Would it be beneficial to have a laptop/computer/tablet with me during course? I don't mean for in the classroom.....I mean more for writing up coursework/homework or that kind of thing...

Sounds like my favourite kind of stuff!

So...happy new year all. Been pretty quiet in here. I'm looking to spark the engines back up. Training cycles have begun again. Should be getting a posting message any day now. Nothing is for sure, but it sounds like there shouldn't be any issue with me staying in my local area until I'm loaded...

Nice one. I'll have a look at these.

At the end of the day, not sure that we're too bothered either way. But nice to hear people's opinions.....anyone else!?

I'll be happy once I can get the family settled on either coast. I'm really just concerned with getting some of that stuff done so I can get the first posting/move out of the way for them...so at least they can settle. On that note (and I'm sure I've asked this ages ago), east or west? What are...

There are so many new acronyms for me to learn now. It's weird being on leave, knowing I'm going back to my current job for only a month or so before starting down this path.
