    So why in this case did it go so high up the chain when other's its been just the SQ/CC? Was it a much larger issue? Help a noob out, genuinely curious

    That's a negative, lots of fighter guys fly airlines on the side. You only need 750 hrs for an R-ATP if you're mil.

    You got pre-private flight training in a King Air?? Jealous

    We've got cadets in the bottom of our class and with sub 30 pcsm, barely passing the pt test, and bad afoqt scores/ft ranking still getting them..i'm sure they'll get weeded out at UPT. Not sure how I feel about that though..stuffing the pipeline with lower quality/potential dudes. I'm hoping they get it together before then! What bothers me most is the people saying "eh..i'll go for pilot i guess" and they get lucky in times like this. /rant

    Just gonna let you know right up front that you have a lot of googling to do, as well as familiarizing yourself with the search function on this site

    @Topper14 can you confirm or deny the visit conversation for the 121fs in this thread?

    Well you need a bachelors in something, not sure if your school is an accredited university or not. You'll need to have a good gpa to be competitive. The required age to start UPT is 30(usually). You need to take the AFOQT and TBAS as well..try getting a pilots license or some flight hours to help with those

    They hired off the streets a few years back. Don't think they have since then

    It was their email and only a week ago, thats weird..

    They told me they're not allowing visits to make it fair. Did you coordinate this?
  13. ayz33
    Which squadron?

    For what its worth, nowadays at least, AF pilot slots are given to almost anyone who wants one from ROTC. I have a feeling we'll be shocked by the #'s next week when rated pref's come out. Doesn't mean it'll be the same when you go through though

    Do you want to buy a plane or just rent? You'll have to get a private if you don't already. Your FAA medical license as a private pilot is good for 5 years and you will have to do a flight review every 24 calendar months. Not sure about any military stuff transferring as i'm not there yet.

    Knock out your TBAS asap...I'm not sure units will accept a package without one done. Scores are good otherwise. I think i've seen GPA overlooked but it really depends on what type of dude you are. What was your major?

    Hey all, couldn't really find anything much on this. Is any amount of cauliflower ear DQ for pilots? Does it matter at all unless it affects hearing? Been training jiu-jitsu and wondering if i need to start using ear protection for this reason. Thanks!

    There's a nap or two somewhere in there

    Is it just me or do reserve units seem to hire less? There's a couple I really have my eye on but i haven't seen much from them. Do they do things a little different? One unit told me they wouldn't be hiring for a couple years which seemed quite odd

    As someone who isn't even a part of this community (yet?) I know my word means all, but it pains me to see the way things are going and the post above is what I, and many others, long for more than any other part of the job. I hope there's guys out there with some balls risking whatever it takes to maintain that strong sense of camaraderie, legacy, and brotherhood that cannot be found anywhere else.

    I have applied and interviewed at a unit and i am halfway through junior year, so its possible to get hired in that time frame (i didnt). It usually takes over a year to get started with OTS anyways(if youre not rotc). Sounds like you'll have to take the tbas still after your afoqt, they'll throw your app out if it's incomplete

    Anyone know Buckley's general hiring schedule? Also any other pertinent information would be cool too
  23. ayz33
    If you get invited in the first place..
  24. ayz33
    How many generally show for interviews?
  25. ayz33
