kona4breakfast 6 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 AD, AFR or ANG? UPT or R/W only? There's a few of us that have come over. They don't make it easy but it's well worth it. If you dig through the forums you'll probably find some info to help inform your desires. DoDI 1300.04 covers ISTs. https://www.esd.whs.mil/Portals/54/Documents/DD/issuances/dodi/130004_dodi_2017.pdf Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gunner11 1 Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 Looking at AD and a FW transition. I've heard that they make it even harder for the RW to FW transition though. I found one mention in an AFI stating the maximum allowed time for previous active duty commissioned service is 5 years. Is this true/waivable? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CharlieHotel47 129 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 If you want fix wing you’ll have to attend the full UPT. Age limit is 33. Have never heard AD approving a federal commission time waiver for bros wanting to go AD. Guard / reserves once hired the unit will back you on getting the above waived. If you want AF helos I don’t think age and federal commission times will trigger having to get a waiver. I Would recommend chasing after a guard reserves fix wing slot... if you really want AD, go fly rotos with the Pedro bros.
