Have you talked to him about Guard/Reserves? I'm a guard hire who was in a UPT class with 7 Acadamy guys/gals who wish they had looked into it. Not saying the Acadamy isn't a prestigious institution, but most I know who are stuck in active duty can't wait for their 10 to be up. Obviously the secret is out and there are tons of applicants per unit, but still get a choice of aircraft/location, and get that line # after the mest orders are up. Also, having a real college experience versus having dorm inspections in your blues every friday is a lot more appealing. Totally not biased....

Sim instructor at Randolph is one the Eagles that intercepted the jet, his story recalling seeing no one in the cockpit is wild.

Tucson ANG opened up a UPT slot, only if you're in the AZ ANG or NG.

As a dude who got hired after enlisting in their Guard unit their freshman year, I was almost a year ahead from the active duty guys. Mainly due to the requirement to finish their CDC's/Job 3 level before they could even start school. Highly recommend going Guard versus active.

Tulsa sits alert in Houston, but no vipers are stationed there.

Love the non pilot Navy Admiral talking about an Air Force bomber, really tied it all together.

TX ANG dude just got picked up for the Thunderbirds. -
Yes, very much yes. Laughlin has their own dock to store it as well. The lake is the best thing here during the summer.

Air Force Looking Into Pilot Training Changes To Curb Accidents

Just don't tell Spang, might hurt someone's feelings they're not invited. -
I think it's all unit driven. I interviewed with another crew chief from my unit who'd been there just as long, maybe even longer. He has tried the last 3 boards and still hasn't been picked up. At first I thought I had a leg up because they knew me and all that stuff, but really I think it all came down to the interview. They've hired 1 person in house in the last 6 that have been picked, but it's a different commander now as well.
