  1. I remember it well Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  2. It may be doable if you have a ANG gig to supplement. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  3. I was in a similar position, but I have around 800-900 PIC from my Herk days. Due to BRAC, I was RPAs for almost 7 yrs, got pulled for a SQ/CC gig. My reward was I got to go to a manned flying squadron afterwards. Went thru an AC program but was a CP because that is what we do in the ANG. The proverbial switch flipped and I retired 1 Apr. Got hired at Atlas and start in a week. I didn’t get enough recency (100 hrs in 12 months, had 75) so I wasn’t really competitive for a major. I’m really looking forward to flying the 747 and building 121 time. I’m damn happy to be flying again. I know Atlas has started a R-ATP program that starts in the 737.

  4. Do the -46 guys tell R model stories? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  5. This is actually great advice. After 29 years, as a pilot recruiter/hirer, as a DO, and as a SQ/CC- I have given this advice countless times. I have always said the answer is no if you don’t ask. Make them tell you no, don’t tell yourself. Apply where you want and let the chips fall as they may. Best of luck!

  9. I am so glad to be retiring in 34 days. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  10. Congrats! Which unit? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  11. I have no frame of reference. First trip here and I came to quarantine straight from the airport. Will report later. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  12. I’m on day 8 of 14 in Korea quarantine. I feel like I’m in jail. Can’t step outside the room without an escort, get an hr of escorted yard time every day, COVID test on day 1 and day 12 with a complete room isolation until negative results, you have to have a mask on any time you open your door, and we get 2 hots and a box lunch everyday. And the WiFi sucks. Light at end of tunnel, I retire when I get back to the States. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  13. Kids have not been sent home. We get emails if someone pops by contact or symptoms. I believe they tell folks if their kids were exposed. So far, mine have been good. This is a private Catholic school, so not a huge population. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  14. My kids have been in school since 3 August. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  15. This is my experience. 2nd shot yesterday morning. Felt like shit last night thru lunch today. Just a little tired now. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  16. My first trip as well and I’m also dreading the hell out of the quarantine. Not exactly the sunset trip I was hoping for. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  17. The mighty Gator! I remember it well. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  18. I have always said that everything happens for a reason, we just have to figure out what that reason may be. Congratulations on a happy and fulfilling life!! Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  19. The married couple now in the Guard? If so, I think I hired them a few years ago. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  20. I had the 1st Moderna dose Thursday. Had a decent fever before going to bed last night with a really sore arm. Fever broke middle of night. Feel fine this morning. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  21. I’ve been in the ANG for over 28 yrs and I agree with you. Lots of movement from my base to DC yesterday. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

  23. Let me know what you find out. We are thinking something similar after my kids graduate high school (I have some time). Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  24. Thx. We’ll drive over to visit, but we’re staying in Knoxville until my kids are out of school. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  25. Chattanooga is up and coming. My brother has lived in the area for about 17 years. We moved to Knoxville last spring and we love it. I’m retiring in April and we are staying right here. And we have our first white Christmas in over 10 years, the mountains will be beautiful tomorrow when the sun comes up. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
