Here's my situation: I'm a 30 year old, six years in the guard still enlisted, who's supposed to be going to OTS in July for active duty UPT. I was told that I had an "age waiver" by my recruiter* and though I was selected in 2015, attending in 2016 after my college was done and after my 30th birthday was no sweat. Now they are telling me that I could run into an issue when I get to my UPT base, since I have no waiver per 36-2205. What they said I have is a "GS waiver" which was supposed to cover my age. My Questions: What are the chances I'll need a waiver? Does the section of 2205 "For waivers to be considered, the applicant must document an Air Force administrative, counseling, or medical error occurred within the last 2 years that prevented the applicant from applying for UFT." apply to me, the admin bit? What are the chances I can get an ETP, if need be, in my situation? *I understand the recruiter is the unreliable narrator

aside from the classic. "chief, it's gonna be code 2, no video at all from the pod." "sir, you don't have a pod." there was this interaction, *crew chief sees sta 5 ejector feet down* "sir, did you have a pod when you left?" "yeah, why?" "it's gone." "are you ing serious?!" "yup." "how would that even happen?" "i dunno, epu clear?" (cc meant 119, air crew was thinking litening)

The news slows, people forget, the shares crash, hopes are dashed.

9 mike no tone

i had the same thing happen to me, to reserve/select since i was already a WG, just had to have to insurance until the blue cross kicked in.

Standard assertion that: I looked and decided this merited its own thread, but mods please delete if this is not the consensus. I wanted some opinions on what an ANG unit's conversion back to manned from UAVs might look like. Does big Air Force see these units the same as it does manned units changing missions? That is to say, is a mission change such as this likely even if it's possible? How many UAV units are "future proofing" by sending their studs through full up UPT? Some initial limiting factors -change to the original manned aircraft bed down facilities that would prohibit the return of manned aircraft. -spin up of ops and mx personal given projected future shortages on the ad side -original issues that lead to loss of manned mission remain, e.g. range too distant It seems like this kind of mission change would probably be less dependent on these factors and more on: -future demand for UAV assets -future procurement of F-35, A-X, LAAR, or similar -local political advocacy looking forward to your thoughts

i heard the same thing

with the magic of MICAP and scrounge it still get's done

i'll marshall jets or drive bread truck, but i really hope a detailer never tells me "the super needs the the can jet FMC by the end of the day"

thanks for the great information. they tell me that i probably won't have much in the way of time as a casual but i'll believe that when i see it. as far as sitting at a desk for six months goes, i've been on the flightline for a long time waiting for a slice of nonner pie.

mods feel free to delete this if you feel it belongs in a more general topic or if i missed one that already exists. What is the policy for taking leave as a Lieutenant on casual status, awaiting a UPT class date? Is it any different because of AETC or training status? I ask because it was generally not approved when I was an enlisted MRA MX student back in 2011.

our unit was going to give one to an rotc cadet but he had a problem with his harness and the second go needed the d for a spare. the part of me that loves flying couldn't help but feel bad for him but the part that busted my ass to make that line could care less.

makes sense.

I'm ANG now and got picked up by AD, this trip to MEPS was after selection.

there's absolutely room for a simplified system: maybe a single page to which people could submit updates which would generate emails. then, one or two people to approve the update and maintain some basic archival information. part of me thinks that tracking down hiring contact info for units, the difficult to get ones in particular (NOLA), is an integral part of the experience.

same on the 107th FS. great unit, nice base, and well run board.

will do

yes, they will accept your package. they'll consider it as part of the selection criteria. you're line officer recruiter should have explained this to you. if you haven't started the process will a recruiter already, i would strongly suggest you start today.

talked to e & e about it: "we have to use the tester and not the "suck and blow" method (sic, sts) we usually do"

i'd be curious to know if the problem is with that particular LRU, the CRU-98 or with it's installation into a light grey.

This is more of a job for Alan ing Bishopman

i know as many frustrating NCOs/SNCOs as I do junior enlisted and officers.

no shit. rank, however, is no factor

flight medicine sent me to see a civilian for therapy, he pumped the breaks on that. i'm in the guard not the ad, maybe since i'm a civilian applicant as far as they're concerned, they sent me to a civilian doctor for follow on.
