nb1812 Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Ok, so i figured this was the best place to post this, as it is not related to the pilot field. I am currently a 33 yo looking to join the AF reserve. I have 8 years prior service army (military police 31B) and a bach degree. I was intrested in joing AF or Navy as a flier back in high school - but was scared off by a recruiter (go figure) because i had glasses (which i was told was a 100% no go - now i know better). Should i even attempt to go for a rated position? Have found very little info regarding CSO selection specifically and age as most info out there relates to pilots. Thanks in advance for your time and info.
bmcardle84 Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 There is still the age requirement to be in training before you are 30. The key is to find a unit that will submit for an age waiver. Getting a waiver really depends on the unit and AF needs.
nb1812 Posted August 2, 2015 Author Posted August 2, 2015 SNAP - thanks for the info i really appreciate it, based on reading here and in other resources think i might open up to Air guard as well, Michigan (my home state) seems to have a few spots and more flying units to try for an age waiver. Next step is talking with a recruiter!
CDAWG Posted April 11, 2016 Posted April 11, 2016 I knew plenty of Guard/Reserve people in training who were over 30. I'm willing to bet if the unit likes you they will push for a waiver. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
