@Ashbringer...How long have you been at Seneca and what would you have done differently? I'm just finishing up fourth year. The program is okay, but there were a TON of delays in the past few years for various reason including phasing out the Bonanza from the fleet, which really screwed over a lot ...

I'm about 2 weeks from graduating from Seneca, and personally I wouldn't recommend it. There is pretty big back log in the training from various set backs in the last few years, and until they rectify those backlogs, I wouldn't want to me anywhere near Seneca's flight line. Feel free to ask me any q...

We almost had crash at Buttonville on Saturday the 18th as well... A 172 pulled onto an active runway (after reading back the hold short) while a mooney was on the takeoff roll. Tower yelled out a few choice words, and bascially shut down the airport for 10 min not allowing anyone to talk on the fre...

I've seen quite a few people post block time rentals on Kijiji for some decent prices (you could always try the old heckling game...). I suggest taking a look there.

The reality is that a recruiting office posting is not career enhancing and it is a boring and tedious job, therefore many of the folks in the position are bottom third of the merit list slugs or coasting on a terminal posting. Also it is important to understand that the recruiting staff have no in...

As for your point on inaccurate RC's, I absolutely agree with that. When I first applied, it took me several weeks just to find out if the degree I was working towards was acceptable for direct entry. Half the recruiters I talked to said yes, half said no. Many recruiters that you talk to directly ...

I think V2 is ok, as long as you can wear glasses to correct to 20/20. I wouldn't trust the Recruiting Center on everything - especially if they told you "he informed me .... I would have to get laser eye surgery to enter the CF as a pilot." Better to find out the truth before you pay $4K for surge...

I know 2-3 reserve pilots with no previous reg force experience. You need to talk to the units directly and have at least 500 hrs and a Multi-IFR (for fixed wings, not sure of the requirements for rotary). Units are 402 Sqn in Winnipeg, 400 Sqn in Borden and 408 Sqn in St-Hubert(Griffons). Do reser...

I received this from a CF-recruiter via email today: Good Day, Thank you for your interest in the Canadian Forces (CF). Pilots in the Reserves are only former trained Regular Force pilots. There currently does not exist any program for civilians to join the Reserves and then be trained as a Pilot. C...

Anyone looking to get rid of their first year books for Seneca's flight program?
Thanks.

Any Seneca students out there willing to sell their first year textbooks? I'm entering first year and need them of course.

Some good information for Western. Are there any Seneca students or grads that can share their thoughts and experience in the program?
Regards,
Ashbringer

I would say to go with Western's program since you will getting a regular business degree on top of your flight training. I consider you lucky to get accepted to Western's program since my friend and I are still waiting for acceptance from Western. Do you mind telling me what average did they accep...

Good day, So back in December I applied to a total of 8 university and colleges for a variety of flight programs and two aerospace engineering programs because I wasn't sure what route in aviation I wanted to take. I was accepted to all the programs,and I i've narrowed down my choices to the flight ...

I wrote the pre-admission test for Seneca College about two weeks ago and havn't heard anything back from them yet. I've checked both my mail and the "My Seneca" page on their site. I was wondering if anyone else who has applied to the Seneca FPR program for Fall 2010 and has written the pre-admissi...
