WEAPON

Read my reply after I posted it and thought I should probably delete this.

What a moron. The USAF is full of people like this unfortunately. Oh well... Drink beer!!!

God speed... Never forget, the price of freedom. The price of freedom will never be known by those that live under it, but by those that defend it. Godspeed to the fallen angels, your cause was just and your sacrifice eternal...

It is possible to get AC's out of UNT, Nav or EWO, U-boats or H's. You cannot get MC-130H's though. Sorry for not being specific earlier. I have heard of a UNT stud dopping an AC FCO slot. We had a guy in my sqdn get picked up for that. I hear it is really fun, but can be very difficult training. I know several folks that are looking to go FCO.

:beer: Godspeed to him and his family...

The USAF was only allocated funds to purchase 183 Raptors. Now, we will only have 182. I hope the pilot is ok. It sucks to say, but these things happen. I would not have thought this soon though.

I have heard TONS, and I emphasize TONS, of people apply. Word is though, the minimums are set in stone and if your paperwork is not flawless, forget about it.

UNT grads are not eligible for the MC-130H as a Nav. Last year at one of the Command Day forums, the MC-130 guys told us to be an H-model Nav, you MUST have prior 130 experience. I could have sworn he said 1000 hrs but I could be wrong. Either way, no H-model out of Randolph. P's and W's are fair game though. I wish those guys the best if that is what they want. I graduated from UNT in May and from what I understand, Kirtland is so backed up that people are looking at almost a year before they start the MC FTU.

They must have grounded the Talon fleet. There has not been one up here at Randolph since this morning.

What about NAVS, and what if you want Bombers?

How do they check or test your sinuses during MEPS or the FC1?
