Lockheed CP-140 Aurora

A long range patrol background.

I spent 18 years of my career in Greenwood from crew member on the CP-140 Aurora to most recently as the Wing Commander at 14 Wing Greenwood from 2022 to 2024, which was an amazing experience outright.

I've had the opportunity to do three postings to Ottawa for my staff tours from the Combined Joint Operations Command to the air staff, all three of those postings really, I think provided me the institutional experience, which helped me with my future command position.

So it was maybe not looked upon as such as I was doing the jobs, but as I reflect back, certainly they paid dividends and I was lucky to have had those opportunities.

So he could have been working on fighters.

He could have been working on Auroras, other airframes.

And he... trains up or or uh or remasters i guess is the term here to become a flight engineer sartex uh start out life in a different trade as well you cannot uh currently join from the street you have to start out life as something else in the military a lot of combat engineers infantry that kind of stuff some were ex-special forces uh we even had one that used to be a dental hygienist
