Cameltactics Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 It appears that the other "upcoming boards" thread was removed or has disappeared? If I'm wrong then mod's feel free to delete this thread or merge, but otherwise... In other news, 104th recruiters say letters and call's should go out this week. Best of luck to all.
Cody Land Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Letters and calls meaning the March selection board may be a go?
Cameltactics Posted January 22, 2014 Author Posted January 22, 2014 ^ Pretty sure it was a February board all along.
fipi Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 For what it's worth, I'm going there for the board at the end of the month. Got the selection call about a week and a half ago.
Cody Land Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Are you both speaking of OTS selection boards? If so, fingers crossed I hear from my recruiter this week.
rancormac Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Cody, This threat is for ANG/AFRC selection boards hosted by each unit, not the OTS selection boards. I think theres a separate thread for that (or www.airforceots.com)
fipi Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 I redact my statement above. I was thinking Barnes, not Baltimore. On a related note, is anyone else having trouble accessing the "aviation jobs" page?

YoopFlier Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 The site was down for a while, but I just checked again last night and its back up. Didn't even know about the 104th board, was it on the jobs page? It can be tough to keep track of all the hiring units, especially when its hard to get in touch with people at the unit. I think I'll take the advice of keeping a spreadsheet with all the board dates (past and present) to keep track of the possible upcoming boards.
Cameltactics Posted January 28, 2014 Author Posted January 28, 2014 Just a shot in the dark here, but anyone hear back, good or bad from Baltimore 104th yet?
YoopFlier Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 Nothing here, thought it would be last week sometime.
Cameltactics Posted January 29, 2014 Author Posted January 29, 2014 Yea, the 180th haven't even gotten the packages over to the board to sift through yet, but they should about next week with a decision on interviews mid Feb. Take that with a grain of salt though, it was 3rd party info from one of the recruiters and they're not really too sure themselves. Yoopflier, thought you didn't apply to the Baltimore 104th? I missed alot of boards too, I had to start checking all the squadron pages and calling to get gouge on some. Check out the 127th from Selfridge, 114th from Sioux Fall, and 124th from Boise if you haven't already.
YoopFlier Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 Ya, there was some confusion about that. I applied to the 104th fs in Maryland, but not the 104th fw in Massachusetts that somebody else was talking about.
Slick Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I emailed the 104th on the 29th and found out I didn't make the cut for interviews.
Cameltactics Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 ^ Just found out too, notifications for the interviews went out last week. If you didn't hear from them, then that's that. Best luck on the next one gents.

Sledge Hammer Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) Looks like the 105th AW out of Stewart(Newburgh, NY) is hiring with applications due 31 March. https://www.105aw.ang.af.mil/shared/media/document/AFD-140106-014.pdf They're transitioning from C-5's to C-17's.

JEFF-15 Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 The timeline for Hawaii is the same as last year. Packets are due April 1st.
SimpleJack Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 The timeline for Hawaii is the same as last year. Packets are due April 1st. Just curious, how realistic is to be a traditional guardsman pilot and be able to afford to live in Hawaii? Do these units typically only pick up Hawaiian residents? I will be applying with the HIANG and would love to live there but I'm wondering if its even possible to live there on traditional pay.
A300 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Yes and no. Are you motivated and want a slot with the 154th? Then go for it guns blazing and take what you think is yours. Being a current resident is not an extremely determining factor. As for when you move to the state and have to start paying to live there is when it could get tricky. HI is not a cheap state, and you will have to find another way to support your income. Thank goodness you have a degree though to use in some capacity. Good luck!! APPLY!!!
JEFF-15 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 (edited) I can't speak to your question because I'm on the outside looking in. (Logic suggests I should keep my mouth shut). However, I did fly for Caravan connecting flight operation in HI for two years. I lived on a salary of 19,200/yr. Kamaka air is cool local cargo operation out of HNL that doesn't pay well, but it may translate into a check out in DC-3. Island Air traditionally has been slow to hire as attrition from the top is low. Mokulele Air might hire you to fly Caravans right seat if you're interested in building time, but again they don't pay well. I guess just PM me if you get a slot and want a reference for one of those operations. Edit: But I remember watching the mighty Eagles do an overhead break from the ramp (before they got 22s) and thinking Holy $hit that's fuggin awesome. SO, I'm trying to get a slot there in any equipment, as well. Edited February 13, 2014 by JEFF-15
SimpleJack Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 I guess just PM me if you get a slot and want a reference for one of those operations. Great, thanks for the information.
fipi Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 The timeline for Hawaii is the same as last year. Packets are due April 1st. Where did you happen to find the notification? I'm looking around for it and I can't find any links. Thanks man.
