Flying Commitment in the Reserves?


Recommended Posts

Hey folks,

I'm currently a tanker guy in the reserves, but I was considering an IMA job closer to my house. (My commute is killing me)  I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a flying commitment for the USAFR? I have been flying since Oct 2010. I know of the ADSC, but does anything like that apply to the reserves?

Does anyone have an AFI reference that I could look up?

Thanks for the input.

 

EDIT: I did find the AFRCI 36-2102 that addresses the issue. It does seem that even reservists incur a 10 year flying commitment after they get their wings. My new question is this: can I still look for an IMA job and still inter-fly with my current squadron?

I'm pretty sure it's only a service commitment. I've never heard of anyone in a "flying commitment".

As for flying as an IMA, AFMC/A3 said a few weeks ago that AFRC was granting NO flying waivers for IMA's. We used to have a bunch of flying IMA's but after the reg changed a few years ago they became all non-flying. We were trying to get waivers for some, but guess that's not happening now.

Interesting since there is at least one FAC 6 waiver that was granted to an IMA within the last year...so maybe the AFMC/A3 didn't hear right. Or maybe it was that AFRC didn't want to push that particular waiver ??

It may be a change in stance very recently. Or, just the fact that there's always an exception!
