randomuzername Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 A place to share information and talk about the FY25 UFT board. Hopefully it’s a 100 pilot slot year again like two years ago.

He told me that he’s expecting 70, maybe less. However hoping for more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s generally quiet until mid November when the board meets, then quiet again until late December lol. I’m expecting 250-300 applicants this year with 70-80 slots. Is this your first go at it?

bpep887 Posted October 21 Share Posted October 21 This'll be my first year applying after I got medically DQ'd 3 years ago, hoping for the best! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QUAG Posted October 21 Author Share Posted October 21 Good luck! my first time my scores were average. I had a Pilot score of 78 and a PCSM of 76. I was number 3 at the Wg. I was a non select. I took this last year to really work on my application. I retook the AFOQT as a senior captain. I felt like Billy Madison in my testing center with all junior enlisted testing to commission. I was able to bump my scores to a 99 pilot, 92 PCSM and earned the #1 Wing strat. I sincerely hope this is enough to get me across the finish line for this year! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see any reason why you shouldn't get picked up this year especially if they have your old package in their system to see the improvements you did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simsans Posted Wednesday at 02:47 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 02:47 PM On topic of PPL - With IPT coming online I wonder how much the board is going to look at PPLs as a deciding factor since in IPT they are going to send everyone back to civilian flight school to get their ratings regardless of what they have. Or I wonder if they ever looked at PPLs in that kind of a light, but instead it was more of a you're more likely to have a high PCSM if you have your PPL from high flight hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this will depend on when IPT actually starts up. From my very brief research 6-9 minutes reading the draft of the requirements. It sounds like a candidate will show up regardless of what ratings they possess and prof advance through training to their specific skill level. do you know when the first class of IPT is expected to start? Did CAE keep the contract in Pueblo Co? BLOB: I believe PPL’s won’t be as heavily weighted. But can still be used as a tie breaker as it shows investment and ability of some degree.

LawnmowerofDoom Posted 35 minutes ago Share Posted 35 minutes ago Retook both my AFOQT and TBAS to try and apply this year but my package didn't make it out of the Sq. I had been waiting for a thread to be posted for this year as I used previous years as guidance, goodluck to all the applicants! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
