I know one of the pilots in the C40 squadron at Andrews. He actually used to fly Vipers for the 121st and then switched over to the bigger jet so he could balance other responsibilities outside the guard. He mentioned that they haven't had a UPT board and typically just hire rated aviators (I know they tend to fly around a bunch of very powerful government officials which probably has something to do with it). If you're looking to fly heavies I'd probably focus your efforts elsewhere. Edited January 18, 2020 by tarheelaviator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B2 guys have prospects send in a resume and then they reach out, mostly rated though. This was maybe 8 months ago, so it be a good idea to reach out to them to get an updated response Can confirm the B-1 bit. The Dyess Reserve folks won't have a UPT board till 2023. As for the Missouri B-2s they just had a UPT board but it was open to only for folks who were currently in the Missouri Air National Guard. The POC said they occasionally will recruit UPT from the outside but it depends on the year. Hope this helps some folks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found out from my sponsoring unit yesterday that the Jan board is cancelled and they’re moving everyone to the March board. This is what they heard from AFRC. I guess the AFRC Student Pilot Training pipeline is backed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only been asked to do recce at 1 interview. The aircraft listed were: T-6, T-38, F-16, F-15, F-18, B-2, U-2, and SU-30. Obviously that list depends on the type of airframe/unit you're applying for, but generally speaking, if you can identify all current US fighters/bombers, USAF trainers, and 5-6 foreign aircraft, you'll be just fine. As a sidenote, that slideshow also included Robin Olds. I'd be able to identify him and John Boyd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
