I didn't see it on Bogidope, do you have to contact them directly to get board info? Yeah, packages were due back in October. I only found out by asking the 190th personally when their next boards would be held. Shared the info with my fellow interviewees during the 107th FS boards but did not post it on here as I had not used this site before. When all else fails, never be afraid to just call the squadron and ask!!! 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long story short, pursuit for AD UPT slot did not pan out this year despite my UPT-worthy scores, but oh well. I have my PPL so that's a plus and some AD experience.

Burt Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Sounds like Fresno and Oregon will be holding their boards on the same weekend. Oregon on March 2 - 3, with two rounds of interviews (1st round Saturday, second round Sunday). Fresno on the 3rd. Massachusetts will have their social on the 1st as well. Interesting...

ayz33 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Is it just me or do reserve units seem to hire less? There's a couple I really have my eye on but i haven't seen much from them. Do they do things a little different? One unit told me they wouldn't be hiring for a couple years which seemed quite odd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Mighty Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 ^ can verify that is correct. MA did hire at least one who did not attend the meet and greet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hokie540 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 If I were to get more flight hours or complete my PPL in the time period between a package submission deadline and a hypothetical interview date, am I able to update it with the units I’m applying to? Or am I locked into what I submitted?Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donkey Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 (edited) I doubt you'd be able to update your application during that window, although someone with experience can correct me if I'm wrong. But for sure you could mention it during the interview if you completed your PPL, got an additional rating, doubled your flying hours etc. EDIT: Looks like I was wrong (not surprising hah). Good to know. Edited January 16, 2019 by donkey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilot Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 You can always email the unit and tell them you’d like to update it if possible if a certain milestone is met. Can’t hurt. I wouldn’t email them after every flight hour you fly, but a ppl vs no ppl is a big deal. They may just say got it thanks and annotate it, or have you submit a copy of it, or not respond at all. I’ve heard/seen updates done (or not) various ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was my unit that was hiring and I knew them already which may have helped but I would definitely try. Worst they can do is say no.

Kylrs Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I got picked up to fly A-10s with the 303rd Fighter Squadron at Whiteman AFB last year. I spoke with the hiring manager and they have far fewer applicants this year than they had last year so if you’re looking to get in an A-10, the odds are better than they were for me so send in your applications! Applications are due April 15th and the board is in June. There won’t be any official meet and greets but feel free to try to visit during the April or May UTA. 303fshiring@gmail.com https://bogidope.com/job-listings/303rd-fighter-squadron-0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it an immediate disqualification to not have a PPL? I won't be able to start working on mine until May, but I am just curious how it works out. Also, is it difficult to get active orders there? I did some time at Whiteman and would love to go back, but it's tough to walk away from a active duty when I am the only one who makes money.
