Air Force is hiring for civilian T-6 IPs

Intelligent Words

This stuff isn't complicated. The regaf exit polls are clear: people don't want to do this shit to themselves and their families, when the airlines offer the pay in short order and dwelling flexibility. 

Rhetorical question then: How do you express that to a GO, SES and CODEL in a way that doesn’t piss them off; gives them a white paper that explains you’ll save money and retain pilots by transitioning to a different basing arrangement, one that is long term sustainable by having a much higher retention rate and high appeal to members transferring to the ARC?

My elevator pitch would be to transfer military flying UPT to be colocated with my most willing and interested crew force that would have the lowest turnover and longest continuity. You’d have to add more to the pitch than that namely what are you going to add to the existing base to keep employment at the same level but fundamentally that’s what I’d argue, students train where their mil instructors want to live.

Low to no chance of success but you gotta try if that’s what you think.

airspace is a bigger problem here than basing

FAA and Congress will never see it rationally like us plebes do. Their craniums are so far up their asses (and each other’s asses) it’s not even worth 5 min of some staff guy’s time. Reality sucks some times.
