Anybody use the tricare retired reserve plan for health insurance before u turn 60? Seems like my airline insurance is cheaper/similar depending on which plan, but just wondering how people like the tricare? Or maybe no one uses it?

Well that’s pretty cool. I don’t want the mortgage payment to go along with the no money down, but good news nonetheless. im tryin to make sense of what it’s talking about if I’ve used some entitlement that hasn’t been restored. How’s it work if I’m tryin to buy a house when I’m still trying to sell my old house? No limit there either?

PEX!! Gross!! If u look at the bright side tho, it’s better than having 12,000 issues. Ha!!

So does that do away with the jumbo loan or whatever it is called now if u go over the $475000 or whatever it is? Meaning, u could take out a $650,000 loan and not have to put the 25% down of the overage?

Whoa!!

U could look at enlisting in the Langley guard while u go to school too. Different state for me, but the air guard paid my tuition plus a monthly pay while I went to a civilian college flight school. U can nerd out and be an RA too, they pay room and board. Bingo bango! then u have a military foot in the door with options.

U talkin more than the 6? https://breakingdefense.com/2019/05/lockheed-says-it-can-fit-2-more-missiles-in-f-35-bay/

Some relief from the now constant threat of eielson 😬. Copy some people love eielson.

Lol, ultimate troll! What’s ur bonus number?! I know a person that got the mythical about “are u sure u want to separate, or what could we do to keep u” email. The legend lives!

Are u living in base for both gigs, or u commute to one?

Shady J has Reserves right? Prolly gotta be established in the Strike world for that gig tho. South Carolina isn’t too far away if u are willing to be close to North Carolina instead of IN North Carolina. As for the firefighter piece, I used to fly jets with a former firefighter, no kidding. On another note, “My father was a fireman....he puts out fires!! My sister Sal....”

Also a good idea to rush a Reserve unit if ur not already. Reference the guard/reserve forum if u havent seen that yet.

Not sure how it works with u as an active duty person, but when I was in the guard a long time ago I applied for OTS and some guard bases at the same time. I had a couple guard pilot interviews lined up when the AD pilot slot came calling. U kinda get a guarantee-ish of what plane you’ll fly with the reserves tho. It’s always nice to have options and any accessions recruiter should b able to help u out.

Perhaps not?

And how bout life insurance, still normal SGLI in the grd/res? Then once out altogether, what’s the favorite life insurance company on the market?

Is there a normal way part time guard/reserve folks while also flying for an airline do health insurance? Or is it the std it depends answer? I’ve heard tricare select and airline dental, what do u all do with a family?

Ah man, not Zippy T! Another good one under the gun, hope it works out for him and was erroneously alleged.

Has anybody had any luck taking years/months of GI Bill ADSC from active duty to the guard/reserves? I asked about it a few messages back, but looking for the specific way to go about it. AFI 36-2649 says you can take the ADSC from active duty to the guard/reserves via Palace Chase/Front, but how is that done? For instance, duder has a date of separation already 6 months from now, Palace Front paperwork good to go, 1288 done, then transfers the 9/11 GI Bill benefits over tomorrow with 6 months left on active duty. Does this need to be annotated somewhere, or other paperwork signed, or what? I know it says so in the reg, but just seems like an easy way to get stuck.

Ha, yikes! All the surveys suck anyway, but a survey to see who's willing to jump on the grenade?!?! Good on ya Catman!

Thanks for the inputs
