Ex Canadian Military Joining RAAF

I am interested to hear of anyone that has transferred to RAAF from another military. Thanks.

Quite a few have done it over the years, from South Africa, the UK; not so many from Canada I don't think, but there's a Canuck F18 guy been bouncing around the system for a few years.

Most people seem to successfully make the transition, you just have to learn to say 'mate' convincingly.

Eric,
there are quite a few who have transferred from UK, CAN, South Africa etc. Tried to email you some names to contact but your email link is turned off. If you switch it on I will pass them on.

Eric,

About 6 RNZAF A4 & MB339 drivers were picked up by the RAAF when the the Air Combat Force was disbanded. This was Dec last year. Mainly onto the F111 or Hawk trainer. Try the Military forum. I know a few of them hang out there.

Thanks for the info. I have some specific questions that hopefully someone who's gone through the process can answer. You can email me at max644t5.shaw.ca if the pprune link is still not working.
