bpep887 Posted January 22 Posted January 22 For the people who have heard the results so far, how were you told? My Sq/CC still hasn't gotten any word about it
QUAG Posted January 22 Author Posted January 22 (edited) I haven’t heard official word on myself yet. however a buddy was selected. 57 PCSM 69 Pilot 40hrs No PPL 4/7 at the WG. Dude was a stellar leader with below average scores. It worked out in his favor Edited January 22 by QUAG 1
GalPit Posted January 22 Posted January 22 @bpep887 Base FSS sent out an email to my Wing leadership and it went down the chain to my Sq Cc and he gave me the call. Today he forwarded the email to me.
QUAG Posted January 22 Author Posted January 22 UPT select! 99 Pilot, 94 PCSM, #1 at the wing. No PPL This was my third time trying. First year was shot down at the GP. Non select last year and picked up this year. if you were an alternate or non select, don’t give up! Focus on leadership opportunities and awards. They help make the package very competitive. 3 2
NoDelays27 Posted January 22 Posted January 22 UPT select! 96 Pilot, 86 PCSM, PPL, #1 at the wing. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this forum, provided insights, and all sorts of helpful info. Didn’t get picked up out of ROTC or supplemental boards, but God did it! 3 1
Dash1isoptional Posted January 22 Posted January 22 Congrats to those selected! and if you didn't get selected this year keep trying!! I was selected last year after my third application. Currently flying the mighty T-6 so if y'all have any questions send me a DM👍
Griffith96 Posted January 22 Posted January 22 UPT select. 99 pilot, 93 pcsm, ppl and instrument, #1 wing strat. This was my first time applying. Thank you everyone for sharing, and best of luck to everyone not selected. If you want it enough, it'll happen!
QUAG Posted January 23 Author Posted January 23 Anyone have any SA on when we will get a training RIP? I know we can start as early as March.

Thanks I'm at Vance right now. They have what's called "T-6 direct" meaning once you finish the T-6 you go straight to your heavy FTU course. No T-1 sims anymore. Whether or not that's a good thing is left to be seen. They have a program called XPW (expedited path to wings) which skips T-6 and is a T-1 only track straight to heavies but the classes are small and rare, and it's gonna be phased out once the last of the T-1s are sent to the bone yard. On 1/19/2025 at 6:33 PM, QUAG said: I actually just got back from Laughlin. After T-6 you will do a T-1 sim syllabus and then go to your MWS. Later on down the road they are looking to just send pilots to their heavy FTU immediately after T-6. All B1/2/52 slots are through T-38’s. T-1s and sims are phased out already at Vance. Same with Columbus I'm pretty sure. Columbus has what's called IPT (initial pilot training). It's it's own beast. I can answer questions about it if anybody wants to know more. 9 hours ago, dcolt21 said: This was my 1st time applying and got alternate select. 41+ hours, 99 AFOQT, 82 PCSM, no PPL. I'm assuming I'll get an email next week with the official announcement explaining what to do next? I was an alternate the first time I applied. They told me they only use alternates if someone initially declines their pilot offer. So you should know in the next couple weeks if anyone declines because they'll offer it to you. Bad news is, if you don't hear anything in the next couple weeks you aren't getting a slot I think. I had heard a rumor they might use alternates if someone fails the medical testing at wright Patt but I think that's just a rumor. Don't be discouraged though. You were really close to getting selected. Apply again next year. I got picked up on my second try. 5 hours ago, QUAG said: UPT select! 99 Pilot, 94 PCSM, #1 at the wing.

Talk to you commander about how you can make your package next year more competitive. Ask for those opportunities. Edited January 23 by BeerForMyHorses

I received a training rip for med testing at wright Patt pretty quickly last year. Think I got it in early February. My rip for IFT closely followed. Went to IFT in April

You'll get your assignment before your training RIP. Since we already did MFS and the RPA syllabus at Doss, you'll go straight to your UPT base. From there I actually remember finding out my class start date on vMPF before actually getting the RIP.
jorfy Posted January 23 Posted January 23 Of course the selection results come out right as I'm going out of the country on leave 😂 I haven't heard anything from my leadership yet but still holding out hope 🤞 Congrats to everyone who was selected!
coppy Posted January 23 Posted January 23 Having back to back snow days has not been conducive for mental health. Hopefully public release is tomorrow.
QUAG Posted January 23 Author Posted January 23 Anyone who was a non select or alternate. I’d be willing to share my package (so to speak) if you shoot me a DM! Again, dont give up! I know how much it sucks. I was told no twice prior to getting a yes. QUAG 2

Last year select* - I had a training projection that wouldn't go away on my CDB, but I just asked my CSS to pull my record and they were able to see the training dates that were hidden. 14 hours ago, BeerForMyHorses said: T-1s and sims are phased out already at Vance.

I am currently in IPT and would be willing to answer questions about it as well if anyone hopes on going to Columbus. Just shoot me a DM. As of right now CAFB cut the XPW program to focus fully on IPT.

PewPewBoom Posted January 23 Posted January 23 Just to keep the info going: RPA Select (only applied for RPA). 1st time applying,current rated aviator. Wg #1/1. 99 Pilot score. 93 PCSM. 21 hours. Hopeful for the alternates. If you weren't selected,don't give up! I know a lot of guys who took 2-3 tries, but keep working at it and you'll eventually get there! Now to round 2 at DOSScwhitz! 1
Arkbird Posted January 23 Posted January 23 @simsans how does IPT work after you get back from your flight school. By that I mean do you do trans and then form in the T-6 or what? My first time hearing about IPT was when I got back from Altus last year and my neighbors were going through it.

I got no idea how it will work. I know it's shortened, but I don't know what all is cut out. I'll let someone with more knowledge lurking these pages to chime in on that.
jorfy Posted January 24 Posted January 24 (edited) Got notified from my CC today, UPT select! 99 Pilot, 98 PCSM, 44 hrs, PPL, #1 or #2 at Wing (had a late submission from someone else in the Wing on the last day lol) Very excited but still can't believe it! Edited January 24 by jorfy
coppy Posted January 24 Posted January 24 UCT select: 98 PCSM, 89 Pilot, 60 hrs., no PPL. 1/1 at the Wing, 1st time applicant. Not the results I was hoping for, but glad I have the opportunity to go to UCT. Currently on the fence about what I am going to do. Any insight on how long it takes until UCT begins once selected? 1

If you haven't done the full flight physical, you will have to go and do that. Otherwise, it just depends on how backed up the pipeline is. It could be super quick to class up, or you could be on casual for a little bit. Either way congratulations! UCT is an awesome experience.
AngrySlam Posted Friday at 08:04 PM Posted Friday at 08:04 PM Anyone have names for ENJJPT selections? Knowing the base early would help for family reasons, even if it means down to 3 options instead of four
