if you apply and get the RC-26 position, by the time you are done with school, those aircraft will no longer exist in the ANG. but at that point you can get picked up at another unit and continue to train in another Aircraft

Hey, very likely hitting the 21-04 class with you also (RPA Candidate). The classes that were (are) on hold are mainly for AD. The Active Duty is over staffed and looking to shed people, so they are slow rolling some accessions.

ANG is 100% processing AGE waivers.

Hi all- the recruiter handling my enlistment passed some timeline info along and I wanted to see if that checked with others in similar situations. I finished MEPs in December and my unit's medical group now has my MEPs packet. Recruiter said the packet has to go through SAS (?), then through the wing, and then up to the ATAG and then the NGB prior to enlisting/ getting FC1 dates. Any rough estimates on how long that should take? Mucho comprendo that the whole process is lengthy, delayed, and frustratingly long: just want an idea how how long is acceptable before knocking on doors to keep things moving. Cheers
Do you love hearing the statement "it all depends". If your recruiter has all the proper paperwork settled when it hits Joint Force HQ of your state, it will get get checked over for accuracy there, any missing items will be figured out there. NGB gets 7 slots for FC1/2/3 at Wright Patterson per week.
Once it hits NGB, it could be quick or slow depending on what state your from as there is an analyst assigned for certain regions, so all depends on how busy they already are.

Yea I am already commissioned. Doing the active duty rated board that allows non-rated members to apply rated. Trying to gauge what the pipeline will be like towing the fam with.
Any thoughts on the ANG? i know of a RPA unit looking for a already commissioned person to fill an RPA pilot slot.

Looked the course up in ETCA and the training outline alludes to actual flight time and not just improved sims--anyone have gouge to confirm or deny this?
I looked it up also, UP7AA, it looks like its 12 weeks, should be an increased blending of Pilot/Sensor time.
also by your namesake, are you shooting for AD or ANG/RES for RPA?

That’s Great news!! Just to clarify does that apply for all the score categories?
No, i believe only Verbal and Quant scores.

The Super Score started this summer. If you take it a second time it will take all your higher scores as the score, not the lastest test taken score. It will benefit all.

Depending on the type of unit, the pilots will be involved in airlifting, logistics, etc. Probably not the boots on the ground though. Enlisted people and non-rated officers can be on the ground but more as a second string if the Army isn’t enough to handle it.
Source: was part of the response to the civil unrest in June and was trained in riot control.
the Air National Guard is fully involved and standing side by side the Army National Guard.

Has anyone read the updated 48-123. I am a RPA pilot select, according the AFI I am only required a IFCIII and MFS (phycological). All IFCIII items can be processed as all FOMC and BOMC locations. I have completed all IFCIII requirements and they are packaging my stuff to send to Wright Patt for a 2808 to get signed.
Wright Patts response is that the Regulation is wrong and RPA pilots need an IFCII and that everything will need to be done at location Wright-Patt.
DAFMAN date 8 December 2020, so anyones educated thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Has anyone had to provide their LASIK documents from 8-9 years ago? I had surgery in 2012 and now am required a FCIII for RPA. I have already made one call, but it appears that the civilian clinic that i got it done with, has changed names...and my records are in their cold storage.
Anyone familiar with needing to provide info for that far back and for an FCIII??

Hey everyone, looking for guesses and educated answers on what the updated pipeline will look like with the implementation of RPA Pilot Next training.

I would like some input from anyone currently going through the RPA pipeline and what the discussion is for RPA Next pilot training.
Guard RC-26 to Fighters (hypothetical)
in Air National Guard / Air Force Reserves

NDAA quotes it pretty hard that "they" don't want it, but...there is a congressman who flys it, whose also a guardsman. I still expect it to be gone.
