Cameltactics Posted April 12, 2014 Author Posted April 12, 2014 ^ F-16 B-course slots for the guard are really taking a hit. Word I've heard multiple times from multiple people in-the-know, is that guard F-16 B-course slots for next 2 years are looking to be in the single digits nationwide... It's all about timing. So maybe a new cold war might help...

fipi Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 @ the 148th they have two guys hired in 2012 waiting on B-course slots, and they just hired two more... Hurry up and wait
A300 Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 Alaska notification letters going out next week. I was notified early that I've been selected for KC-135.
xcraftllc Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 Alaska notification letters going out next week. I was notified early that I've been selected for KC-135. Congratulations man!
Kenny Powers Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 @ the 148th they have two guys hired in 2012 waiting on B-course slots, and they just hired two more... Those two waiting on B course slots are still in T-38's though, so not like people are sitting around doing nothing waiting on dates.
Milchstrasse Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 Those two waiting on B course slots are still in T-38's though, so not like people are sitting around doing nothing waiting on dates. My bad, thanks for clarifying.

JEFF-15 Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 What bites is when the pipeline gets so jammed they don't send you to UPT for 2 years.
Cameltactics Posted April 14, 2014 Author Posted April 14, 2014 ^ Could be worse. Just find a Marine flight buddy and ask them to tell you some story's of what happens when Marines see massive delays/jams in flight training. Let's just say common sense is an uncommon virtue sometimes...
Marco Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 Hawaii does a joint board for KC-135, C-17, and F-22.
Sledge Hammer Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 HIANG got only 30 apps..pretty low for a fighter unit but I've also heard its a joint board for heavies as well? Anyone want to clarify whose interviewed with Hawaii or has credible info. Thx Do/did they post the job opening anywhere?
Milchstrasse Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 Nope. But that might have been intentional, from what I hear, they prefer locals.
BDJ238 Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 I sent my application to them... Also never heard anything back Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkJust got my email from NV saying I was not selected for an interview. Sure is nice just to know one way or another. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Milchstrasse Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 BDJ, don't expect to hear anything from Hawaii for a while.

thehammer Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 The 115th FW has also posted a board. Be advised, although it says that the applications will be accepted until October 18th on their website, they will only be accepting until the 26th of June. Therefore I will not be able to participate, good luck to those who do. From the Wisconsin Recruiter: "We will be excepting UPT applications until 26 June...We are waiting for them to update the new date." Also, New Jersey is as well but says that all dates are TBD. I guess the sequester is really scrambling the timelines for guard units. xcraftllc - who did you talk to in Madison recruiting? I interviewed with this unit this past winter. It seems awfully soon for them to be holding another board. Awesome unit though.
Milchstrasse Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 Can't speak for xcraft, but the info I have corroborates his. I was told they'd likely be having a board this Fall.
JEFF-15 Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 Did anyone hear if Fresno is holding a board this summer/fall? I called/emailed and did not receive an answer. My wag is they will open up the app window soon.
Buffaloman Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 The 128ARW is accepting packages until 31 July 2014 for a FY2016 UPT slot. See www.guardreservejobs.com under Milwaukee for the package requirements.

Milchstrasse Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) For your own sake, I'd leave your real name off these boards. It's cool if people know who you are, but I wouldn't really go advertising it. I am also wondering whether "we will be expecting applications until June 26th" means that, they aren't expecting applications until June 26th, or that they are accepting applications until June 26th. I sent an e-mail to Robert to see what's up. Edited April 17, 2014 by Milchstrasse
donkey Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 For some reason that link took me to your "perma-fat" album, lol. It's working now though.
xcraftllc Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) For some reason that link took me to your "perma-fat" album, lol. It's working now though. ROFL, yeah it was an ancient photobucket account so it has a couple jokes in there from Rucker flight school or something. Weird how it showed other photos, that's the last time I trust the "Direct Link" feature, especially for a more professionally oriented forum such as this! When I tested the link from the post after I logged out of photobucket, it went direct to only that one screen capture on a blank webpage. Whatever, does anyone know why the image tool doesn't allow you to use photobucket URL inserts? For your own sake, I'd leave your real name off these boards. It's cool if people know who you are, but I wouldn't really go advertising it. I am also wondering whether "we will be expecting applications until June 26th" means that, they aren't expecting applications until June 26th, or that they are accepting applications until June 26th. I sent an e-mail to Robert to see what's up. Yeah, I edited the original post without the link now. I suppose I'll keep it simple next time. Let us know if you hear back from Robert.
