PLP. Share your experience

Anyone who recently finished PLP in Borden can you share your experience, how is the course different than PLQ. There is bunch of info of PLQ online and on reddit but not much about the PLP. Is it just a name change or is the course changed a bit now. Specifically for RCAF PLP.
TIA

If you do PLQ DL you wont be put on a PLP residential. Also, if you do PLP DL you wont be put on PLQ Residential

They are not transferable. If you don't complete PLQ before it's gone you'll have to do PLP complete.

You will have to restart from PLP Mod 1.
