I am currently putting an application together for Portland, New Orleans, and Vermont (and any other ANG fighter units that come up over the next several months).
I just got my scores back from AFOQT and TBAS:
AFOQT:
Pilot: 94
Nav: 97
Acad Aptitude: 99
Verbal: 99
Quantitative: 99
PCSM:
63, based on 10 flight hours
I will have over 20 when I actually apply bringing my score to 71, with a max of 91 with 201+.
I also wanted to get advice on letters of recommendation, as I don't have many contacts within the military. Would it be better to get a letter from someone I don't know as well who is in the military or someone whom I have worked with for a while?
I am going to visit Portland December 1st, and planning on visiting New Orleans early next year.
The big kicker is I am about to turn 31, so I will require an age waiver. I know I would have a much better chance with heavies (certainly not a given, just a better shot), but just wanted to get some feedback on how I look for fighters in particular.
Any advice would be helpful - thanks.
