There are 3 categories of civil aircraft in Canada- Private, Commercial, and State. The civilly registered aircraft used by government and military officials are registered under the State category. Describing them as “private” is incorrect. The other mode available to such officials is aircraft operated by DND, which obviously must be described as “military”, since they are not civilly registered. If everyone took care to use proper nomenclature, the picture would be much clearer and more accurate.

I wonder if the pilots could maintain recency in some other less-expensive vehicle – or even a simulator – if their main ride has no other reason to fly.
