However, if you decide to join the Primary Reserve Force, you will do so through a specific Reserve unit. Outside of training, your chosen Reserve unit will be your workplace on a part-time basis, and you will not be obligated to relocate to a different base. As part of the Primary Reserve Force, you typically work one night per week and some weekends as a minimum with possibilities of full-time employment. Required Qualifications If you already have a university degree, the CAF will decide if your academic program matches the criteria for this job and may place you directly into the required on-the-job training program following basic training.

En tant que militaire, les pilotes des Forces armées canadiennes (FAC) sont aux commandes de différents types d’aéronefs utilisés dans diverses situations : la recherche et le sauvetage, les chasseurs, le transport, les hélicoptères tactiques et la patrouille maritime. Leurs principales responsabilités sont de planifier, communiquer, coordonner et exécuter les missions tactiques à l’appui de l’autorité civile ou des objectifs militaires, tels que l’aide humanitaire et l’appui suite à des désastres naturels, ainsi que les opérations d’interception aériennes. Les pilotes utilisent des systèmes de navigation tactiques de précision, des systèmes de communication avancés, des systèmes de senseurs, des systèmes de contre-mesures et des systèmes d’armes projetés à la fine pointe de la technologie. Centre de sélection du personnel navigant – L’Aviation royale canadienne (ARC) exige que tous ses pilotes, contrôleurs aérospatiaux et officiers des systèmes de combat aérien réussissent le test de sélection du personnel navigant. Le centre de sélection se trouve à Trenton, en Ontario. C'est là que les candidats sont soumis, pendant deux jours, à une série de mises en situation générées par ordinateur visant à évaluer leur maîtrise des compétences et aptitudes exigées par l’ARC. La réussite du test de sélection est obligatoire pour poursuivre les démarches en vue de faire carrière dans l’une ou l’autre des trois professions susmentionnées. Environnement de travail Les pilotes travaillent dans une variété de domaines, allant de la partie la plus nordique du Canada aux missions d’appui à la Marine royale canadienne. L’environnement de travail dépend du rôle militaire assigné aux pilotes. Les pilotes de recherche et sauvetage sont déployés partout au Canada pour sauver des personnes en situation de détresse et d’urgence, alors que les pilotes de chasse protègent les Canadiens et défendent leurs intérêts à l’étranger. Les pilotes de transport, pour leur part, acheminent l’aide humanitaire aux personnes dans le besoin partout dans le monde. Les pilotes d’hélicoptères tactiques se chargent de la distribution de l’aide humanitaire et des missions de maintien de la paix, tandis que les pilotes de patrouille maritime protègent les côtes canadiennes. Si vous choisissez de faire carrière dans la Force régulière, vous serez affecté à votre première base dès que vous aurez terminé l’instruction requise. Bien qu’il y ait une certaine latitude concernant les affectations (réinstallations), il n’est pas toujours possible de satisfaire toutes les demandes et, par conséquent, vous devez vous attendre à déménager à un moment ou à un autre pendant de votre carrière. Toutefois, si vous décidez de vous enrôlez dans la Force de réserve, vous le ferez via une unité spécifique de la Force de réserve. Outre l’instruction, votre lieu de travail à temps partiel sera l’unité de la Force de réserve que vous aurez choisie et ne serez pas dans l’obligation de déménager pour une affectation à une autre base. En tant que membre de la Force de réserve, vous travaillez généralement un soir par semaine et certaines fins de semaine, avec la possibilité d'un emploi à temps plein. Qualifications et exigences Les candidats doivent avoir terminé l’instruction de base des officiers et l’instruction de pilotage initiale. Après cela, ils peuvent suivre trois parcours différents selon leur rendement et les besoins. Les pilotes reçoivent leur brevet de pilote et sont affectés à une unité d’instruction opérationnelle où ils continuent leur formation avec l’aéronef et dans le rôle qui leur est attribué. Par la suite, ils seront affectés à un escadron opérationnel. Chirurgie corrective pour la vision Les candidat·es qui portent des lunettes, des lentilles de contact ou qui ont subi certains types de chirurgie réfractive pour améliorer leur vision peuvent postuler pour devenir pilotes. Cependant, les exigences visuelles pour les pilotes sont plus élevées que celles des autres groupes professionnels des FAC; les candidat·es doivent subir des examens ophtalmologiques supplémentaires. Les procédures de kératotomie radiaire ou d’ablation au laser de tissus de la cornée ne sont pas approuvées pour les pilotes. #J-18808-Ljbffr
As a member of the military, Pilots fly a range of Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) aircraft in a variety of roles: Search and Rescue, Fighter, Transport, Tactical Helicopter, or Maritime Patrol. The primary responsibilities of a Pilot are to plan, communicate, coordinate, and execute tactical missions in support of civil authority or military objectives, such as humanitarian and disaster relief, and air intercept operations. They work with sophisticated technology for precision tactical navigation systems, advanced communication systems, sensor systems, counter-measure systems, and weapon delivery systems. Aircrew Selection Centre The Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) requires that all Pilots, Aerospace Controllers, and Air Combat Systems Officers attend and successfully complete the Aircrew Selection. The selection centre is located in Trenton, Ontario, where candidates are tested over a 2-day period with computer-based scenarios designed to validate those skills and aptitudes required by the RCAF. Success at Aircrew Selection is a necessary step in order to continue to be processed for these three occupations. Work Environment Pilots work in a variety of areas, ranging from the northernmost parts of Canada to duties supporting the Royal Canadian Navy. The working environment depends on the military role assigned to the Pilot. Search and Rescue Pilots are deployed anywhere in Canada to rescue people in distress and emergency situations. Fighter Pilots protect Canadians and defend our interests abroad. Transport Pilots deliver humanitarian aid to people around the world. Tactical Helicopter Pilots support aid distribution and peacekeeping missions. Maritime Patrol Pilots protect Canadian coasts. If you choose a career in the Regular Force, upon completion of all required training, you will be assigned to your first base. While there is some flexibility with regards to postings (relocations), accommodations can’t always be made, and therefore, you can likely expect to move at some point in your career. However, if you decide to join the Primary Reserve Force, you will do so through a specific Reserve unit. Outside of training, your chosen Reserve unit will be your workplace on a part-time basis, and you will not be obligated to relocate to a different base. As part of the Primary Reserve Force, you typically work one night per week and some weekends as a minimum with possibilities of full-time employment. Minimum Requirements Once they complete their basic officer and primary flight training, new pilots get assigned to one of three paths. Based on their performance and on current needs, that could be fast jet, rotary-wing, or multi-engine. On completion of that phase of their training, pilots receive their wings and are assigned to an operational training unit where they will continue training with the aircraft in the role that they’ve been assigned. After that, they’ll be posted to an operational squadron. Corrective Surgery for Vision Applicants who wear glasses, contacts, or have had certain types of laser refractive surgery to improve their vision may apply for the Pilot occupation. However, pilots have more stringent visual requirements than other CAF applicants and must pass additional ophthalmology screening. Radial keratotomy or corneal reshaping procedures are not approved for pilots. #J-18808-Ljbffr
