British joining Canadian Air Force?
Does anyone know if it's possible to join the Canadian Air Force if you're not a Canadian? I know that there are a few Canadians in the British armed forces as well as many from other nationalities. I'm from the UK, Scotland to be more precise. I am, at 25 too old to join the British Royal Air Force and am considering the British Army but the amount of actual flying time that an Army officer pilot gets is not very high before he/she is moved onto other things.
Would I need to become a Canadian citizen first and then apply? I have looked at the criteria required for citizenship and I don't think I'm too far off meeting the criteria. I have an engineering degree and am currently working as an engineer (which helps pay for flying training). Even if I followed the civilian flying route I think that Canada would be a great place to work anyway.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
