I was just hoping all you current and former pilots could share about the types of flying and number of flight hours in a year for the different aircraft. I know the “basic” role each aircraft preforms but I was more wondering exactly whats it like flying that particular aircraft and what you do...
I'm DEO, heading off to BMOQ in January. So for rotp you are added to the bft list after graduation I assume. For DEO is it after SLT or PFT that you're added to the BFT waitlist?
I’ve searched numerous old threads on documents but I am still a little confused on what Variable Initial Engagement exactly means. I know that the commitment is 9 years (for pilots) but I have also heard that it is based on how many years to reach an operationally functional point (OFP) plus...
I was just wondering if during all the wait times before and between flight training would you be able to do some continuing studies towards a masters degree. I understand that OJT is part of the training but say once you have done a year of it is it possible to go work towards a masters degree...

I understand that all pilots in the CF will have to endure a couple of non-flying tours in the span of their career. I was just wondering what kind of postings these would be(what kind of stuff do you do) and when abouts they occur? Thanks
