Sent from my iPad using Baseops Network Forums Well, as we all know, step #1 is recognizing you have a problem. This will be interesting to see play out. Prior to this the O-4 board has represented a giant off-ramp with limited opportunities to regain professional traction. Hopefully this changes things. But, as General Goldfein notes, I am skeptical the Air Force can pull it off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This essentially gives Wing Commanders more control over who goes or is at least pushed for school and potentially more slots since those that were awarded off the board are now absorbed by the 3849 process. Should be interesting to see how this plays out. But definitely skeptical as to how the numbers pan out across the career fields and Wings.

If the Air Force is smart about this new process, who are we kidding they will screw this up also, they will give each wing x number of slots that the wing king and use to fill. Then the rest the AF does some mind blowing process to fill the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorta destroys the whole argument that "the AF gets it's promotions and leaders right most of the time!!!" you'd hear from the Liquids et al on this board. In Liquid's defense, he must be really busy giving out his no-notice ground evals to all the pilots talking about the airlines at work... maybe that's why he doesn't participate here anymore. That's gotta be a full-time job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
