To be fair a ton of pilot (military and civilian) training does these days rely massively on synthetic trainers (i.e. simulators), it's been happening for quite a while, tbh.  For example, there's no two-seat F-35, after all, so how else can conversion training be provided?

And RCAF advanced flying training will continue to happen on a contractorised basis as the press release states.

Hawks.........................  :banghead:

Yes, but our Hawks are now T.2's which are more up-to-date than the CT-155's were.

Sheppard still uses T-38's I believe, so not exactly state of the art.  The RAF are also sending new pilots to Italy to train on the M-346 alongside the RCAF.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
