From the PSDM, officially its a TFCSD waiver that's needed (versus the TAFCSD). Lame I know but for ROTC folks, those are two different dates. Just thought I'd throw that out there. Did you receive any feedback why you weren't endorsed? Working on a TFCSD waiver myself, got the wing/cc endorsement but not sure how often the MAJCOM or HAF level A1 disapproves them. If anyone has experience with that, it would be sweet.

If it's something you want get after it and don't stop until you do. Simple as that. Get up every morning and work towards that goal. Look at the steps that will get you there and then handle them one at a time. Get that AFOQT knocked out. Don't just knock it out, knock it out of the ball park. Then take the TBAS. Don't just take it, demolish it. If you start ROTC when you're 24, you'll graduate at 28. Age limit for UPT is 30 Max PCSM score is 99 - get as close to that as possible If you're living off an E-3/4 wage... skip the bars for now and save your money for the flying time. Study, work, fly, repeat. I promise the bars will be there later. Get a degree you care about. Not one you think the will help you get a pilot slot. You'll do better in a program that you care about, and your GPA will reflect that. Look for people who say yes and figure out the answers to the hurdles in your way. Look back and be tired for the right reasons.

Anyone have any idea on the current drop rate of ospreys and where they're coming from these days? I've seen maybe 4-5 total CV-22s posted on here in the last six months and was wondering if that seems about right. I know for a while they were coming from all three training platforms including hueys but wasn't sure if that was the current status. That being said, can any osprey dudes/dudettes speak to whether or not there's a preference in the CV-22 training pipeline where they went for phase three? I.e, is someone coming from a T-1 at a disadvantage vs someone coming from a TH-1?
