This is a high resolution photo of a console w/ controller .. the scope is visible, but not in great detail. http://www.barco.com/barcoview/downloads/NAV_AR_2010_TO_controller.jpg There are also pictures and a short video of GAATS+ available on the Navcan website; check Press Releases 2011, you'll f...

When I first applied, I only thought about doing VFR; I had a chance to visit the Tower and it was fantastic .. but after starting an IFR course and spending some time around the centre, I've realised that it was just my desire to stay in my hometown (towered airport) instead of moving to the city w...

I watched a few of these earlier today .. I like them. This looks like the first set of videos that highlight the regional training program, and it's nice to see them interview actual students in the generic, specialty, or OJT portion of their training. It's too bad that it seems pretty Central / We...

You can re-apply after 12 months if you are not successful - however, given the fact that you were interrupted, you should call the National Recruitment Centre and inform them. They are able to "reset" your profile in rare situations like this, if you are worried that your results may be inconclusiv...

What exactly is included in the pre-course package besides ITA, medical and security check information? They send you an email with all of this information as part of your congratulatory communique .. have you received said email yet? Or are you not yet at that stage .... The material to concern yo...

I am in training now and if i had been given manops beforehand with no instructors to ask questions to or simulators to apply/see what I had studied, I would have quite a difficult time absorbi...

I agree with kevenv .. I am in the generic portion of my IFR training, and if I had been given MANOPS beforehand it would have done me no good! Study the ITA inside and out .. once you are done all the Blocks, study it some more. Take full advantage of the classroom and your classmates once you star...

The qualifications are posted on the link above - but you do not need beyond Highschool to get accepted. I know some have pursued a Uni degree before applying (a friend of mine is doing that now), but I was accepted with just my Highschool grades. The process is very competitive; do your best on the...

My experience was pretty straight forward "We're calling to offer you a position on the IFR Course at Sumspot starting on XX" I said yes, they told me the process from there (will receive ITA and rest of welcome package - send forms back, get medical and background started as soon as possible) When ...

What is the W-Sim exam? I did my testing in 2009, never heard of it until now.

It's an Aeroplan ad. The jingle changes slightly [instrument wise] based on what destination they're pushing.. I think.
