  1. Update: Two star still hasn't signed the list, the team there told me 0% chance of finding out this week, most likely 1st or 2nd week of Jan.
  2. Right, I think the results will be final once the afpc/cc signs it and once that happens it's 7 days for the AFPC team to give us all assignments, then it's sent off to all of the MPFs to notify commanders.
  3. My Commander spoke with AFPC, list is still with AFPC/CC still shooting for Christmas release but will still need 7 days to work assignments so could be around New Years.
  4. He's probably the board lead doing some weird O-6 voyeurism prank
  5. Someone would have been notified and posted on the forum already... Right?!?
  6. Not applicable to me but some interesting info in there, someone got an exemption after declining ABM last board, that's good to know (just in case)
  7. So we have either before 20 Dec or late Dec/early Jan....this rumor-mill is f'd
  8. And us old AD board folks aren't eligible for Faip correct??
  9. The results will be released to your MPF first, they inform CC's to give them a few days to give you the news...Absent your CC, they might be willing to give you the results directly but I'd reach out and ask.
  10. I'm with this guy, before Christmas for sure. They moved the board up this year on purpose, they want to get us moving quick. Hope the crusty colonels looking at our apps at this very moment make the right call and give everyone on the forum a spot
  11. Have a few questions I can't find great answers on... How long after they announce selections does the FC1 at Wright Pat happen? Is it self scheduled? I also don't have a TS, will I have to wait for an upgraded clearance before I start IFT/Upt?
  12. You can use your GI Bill to pursue general aviation qualifications if I'm not mistaken. Might be a drop in the bucket for some programs, but it'll cover a PPL.
  13. First time for me, sent some applications to reserve units as well just to see what sticks.
  14. I just retook the afoqt as an active duty officer to increase my pilot score for my upt app and I asked jokingly if I scored below the commissioning standard if they would take my rank away and make me an airman. He just laughed and said they wouldn't do that. To my understanding the quantitative isn't a huge emphasis item for upt applications, it's more about the pilot afoqt score and your pcsm.
  15. Right, I'm hoping the number of pilot spots they give out top over 100 this year... They bumped up the # of fy19 Upt spots by 300 so we should get some of those (I hope).
  16. Exactly, I'm just curious on where all these applicants come from, everyone I've talked to has been the only one applying from their base. I'm guessing the big number comes from CSO/RPA Wings but idk, guess it doesn't matter. I talked to one of the POCs on the board and he mentioned that the rank of your senior endorser doesn't matter either, besides the scores I think they really look at your OPRs and letter of rec.
  17. How many folks applied at the base you are stationed? I'm curious on how competition varies by base to get that #1/x push on the 215. I was the only one who applied at my base, but not sure if that's the norm or not. Goodluck to everyone submitting this week!
  18. I got the standard free consult with bogidope to start things off and they gave me some dated/generic information (hurry before I need an age waiver at 30, etc). I've found these forums had everything I've needed thus far, not worth the money Imo.
  19. Hah wish I had an answer for you, but I'm still undecided. Part of me wants to be in the fight as much as possible and AD is the avenue to do that, however I know that's probably a romanticized idea more than a reality from what my AD pilot bros tell me. Not one AD pilot has told me to go AD over the reserves and I've probably reached out to 10ish (wide variety of airframes including fighters) so that carries weight. I'm leaning reserves but at the end of the day if gets me into a flight suit I'll be happy.
