To my understanding the official public release is mid November so advance CC notifications would be 7 days prior. Theoretically 8 Nov-ish. Just my interpretation though. if any of y’all have anything conflicting or more details please chime in.

I got a hold of them. “Assignment team is talking with functionals, then they brief AFPC/CC, then approval. Mid November release is still accurate.” So it doesn’t look like AFPC/CC has seen anything yet.

Very true, just depends how high it goes.

That’s pretty big news. I sent the org box an email yesterday with no response. If AFPC/CC signs it this week then they are ahead of schedule. Maybe notifications in within 2 weeks

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I don’t think we will hit the loss roster prior to commanders notification. MilPDS updates for assignments are pretty quick. Plus, they won’t release anything until the AFPC/CC signs off on it. Our best bet is to get updates from the board, or have an O-6 call in a favor....

If you’re going to wright patt for your FC1 then yes, that will check the box for MFS as well.

It’s pretty similar, just more structured and everything is smashed into two days. They may try to get you to be a guinea pig on alternate tests but all in all pretty normal. At least my experience was.

My 2808 didn’t say pending MFS, it just said MFS completed in 2015. So I think I’m good. as for the CCT, I’m honestly not familiar enough with it to give you any type of info. The new color vision standards are pretty forgiving so I’m sure you’ll be fine if you passed your FC1

The color vision test I took during MFS and my most recent FC1 were exactly the same. I’ve never had any issues so didn’t require any further testing. I took the test with the red, blue and green letters. However, the standards for passing are now 50% as opposed to 100% 5 years ago. So there’s some wiggle room. You have to have an FC1 done to even apply. So yes we do have ours done. MFS is required if picked up for RPA or pilot. It’s essentially another FC1 with all the same doctors so that the Air Force has a standardized way of medically evaluating all applicants to eliminate any local bias at local flight med clinics. They may also give additional testing if required.

I luckily don’t have to go to MFS if selected because I passed everything there back in 2015. If anyone has any questions about MFS, I’d be more than happy to answer them.

I’m a prior med DQ guy going for pilot as well.

That’s good info. Wonder how they are tracking for a release. Everyone on here going for pilot?

Copy, thanks for the gouge brother. who wants to bug afpc about the results being published/numbers this week? I was told told mid November a little over a week ago. Standard response I’m sure. Just can’t wrap my head around the process potentially taking 2 months

Do you have a reference/article? The most recent FY2020 NDAA calls for 1480.

Does your bro have any other info regarding FY20 AD pilot slots? i don’t blame the guys last year that turned down CSO and ABM slots. It’s too bad you have to “apply” to all of the rated jobs even if you’re only after pilot.

Well it not exactly good news but it’s news. By slightly down I hope they mean down to 85 from 90.

We need a bro from afpc to get on here and hook us up with some insider info like someone did in past years

It sure looks like it, especially because all of the data I’ve seen that’s the most up to date still shows them shooting for 1480 pilots for FY20. I think we are safe brother. But I’ve been wrong once or twice.

If that is true, that really worries me. If they did that, and we felt the repercussions, there would be a lot of dudes getting out at 4 years. I think earlier in this thread, someone stated that ROTC didn’t fill all their pilot allocations so if that’s accurate, it will cushion the blow for us on the AD board. IF everything stayed above of true. It’s just conjecture at this point though.

Ill definitely be pursuing that as we get closer to November. Hopefully I wont have to go that route though!

I can definitely relate to that. I’m a little on edge though because I have orders for my current career field with a RNLTD of 10 Dec. Trying to get any type of info I can to put my mind at ease because I don’t want to move twice..... an early November release would be great!

Fair enough. Let’s hope the same holds true this year. No ETP for me but after a 5 year fight, finally got a waiver and a passing FC1.

This years forum is pretty quiet. Day 1 of the board over. Hoping the board keeps us posted on progress.

Anyone else have any more gouge on the board? I.e. allocations, number of applicants etc.
