In episode 20 of the Pilot Project Podcast, Paul Hodgson — a pilot with the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) and intake management officer with the Canadian Forces Recruiting Group — shares his advice for successfully joining the RCAF as a pilot.

Hodgson has flown the CP-140M Aurora and was most recently posted to the Canadian Forces Recruiting Group in Borden, Ontario. There he became extremely well-versed in the ins and outs of recruiting, and gained a passion for helping applicants to succeed.

What are the paths you can take to join the RCAF as a pilot? How much time will you have to serve? What are the eyesight requirements for a pilot? What can you do to make yourself an attractive applicant? Hodgson answers the questions kindly supplied by listeners and the Canadian Forces Subreddit on this latest episode of the Pilot Project Podcast.
