That would explain the silence from Butters.

Wasn't that a Hind flying over during the beginning?

Yes. CNN never passes up an opportunity to diminish it's credibility.

Questions for the Army guys that did/are doing the switch over...

RLO or Warrant?

If Warrant how did that work in so far as converting over to a system that has no equivalent?

Active Duty or Guard and if Active Duty who did you call?

Not exactly ready to jump ship or anything, just keeping my options open as the field seems to be changing in the 4-10 year plan.

I'm an RLO as are the other guys I know that made the switch. WO's attend USAF OTS and enter as 2LT's.

I've only met one former WO in the AD AF so I'm no help re: a POC.

PM me with FWQ questions. I am currently in the -38 end of the program, but could certainly provide insight on the T-6/T-1 syllabus and FWQ oddities. You must be a rated military aviator. There is no flight hour requirement, just an ARB. Let me know if I can help.

Thread revival

I'm an Apache pilot recently picked up for FWQ. The latest word I've received is that FWQ is going away completely and I'll do the complete UPT syllabus instead of the self-paced T-6 program and join up with a T-38 class like some of the Army guys I know. Anyone know if this is accurate?
