CavGuy Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Has anybody experienced a super short interview ~10 minutes long? I'd normally say "its me" but all the other applicants were just as short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeeyee Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 For those of you applying to the 115th Airlift Squadron out of Point Mugu, CA, do we include official sealed transcripts with the mailed in application? Their flyer states this, "Sealed Official College Transcripts Unofficial copies placed inside application package" Obviously for the E-mailed application, the only choice is placing unofficial copies, but I'm confused for the mailed app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if that’s a misprint or if they’re just more willing than most fighter units to submit age waiver requests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, maybe went a little too strong on not betting any money on ANY future ones...but I'd still go with not many more. Point being, the wannabees should focus on other aircraft...IMHO.  For those interested in some light reading, I point you to the latest AF Budget document. See page 50. It shows you what the AF wants to have each fleet size at in by the end of FY21. Notice how the B-1 #'s drop? Even if you don't want to consider that tid bit of info. Feel free to look up B-1 mission cape rates these days. I imagine the average Reserve B-1 pilot doesn't fly that much. Just FWIW for those youngins out there with big dreams.   https://www.saffm.hq.af.mil/Portals/84/documents/FY21/SUPPORT_/FY21 Budget Overview_1.pdf?ver=2020-02-10-152806-743 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CavGuy Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Did anybody "rush" Portland in the past months? If so, what was the vibe like? Do they put high emphasis on rushing in order to get a slot? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was hard to get a gauge on how important it was honestly because most of the squadron was gone doing training, but the guys I did meet were way cool. I definitely got a Portland-esque vibe though - kind of a big city tempo mixed with a simultaneously laid back kind of feel to it, but while still maintaining their readiness and taking the job seriously. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATX51 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Silly question about 457th FW: their website says that they do not allow new hires to attend unit functions.  I assume this means drill weekends? I am in the Texas Guard and would like to meet these guys.    Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarheelaviator Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Haven't heard anything back from Oregon yet but best of luck to everybody.  Also if yall are applying to the 121st FS (DC Guard) make sure to get your applications in by 2/29. They moved their deadline up from 3/31 and they require a longer application package than most places.  1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
