hey guys, guard dude here making my last trip to Altus soon, are crash pads still approved without a non-a? I read a few pages of this thread and I can't really follow it. Just have no desire to stay on base, tell me I still can still stay off, Thanks!

The uncertainty of being in the reserves, finding a civilian career and never experiencing active duty life. Although, this post and the great people who have helped me out have made my decision a lot easier.
Never experiencing active duty is like saying you never got to experience prison or priest molestation.

To me it's simple. If you desire a long career focused totally on flying (in an actual plane), AD isn't the best way to go. There is nothing wrong with telling people that.

Funding fee is based in how much you put down, google it and you can see a chart. I believe if you put 5-10% down your funding fee is 1% of your loan.

I also guarantee there are a few states here watching this.I guarantee you there are a couple of provinces in China watching this, and that the CCP is pissed it's happening because they're already areas giving them fits...

1. UAVs suck, but your life is stable.
2. If "the schools suck," sell your boat/motorcycle/other toy and do private school.
3. Vegas isn't bad, the commute sucks, but theres no traffic on the way to work.
4. Keep flying at KVGT to stay current.
5. Get out of the Air Force when able.
6. FAIP hours don't count? You sound like a tool.
Peace

There is a Chipotle, just confirmed by 379 EFSS/FSC. Opened 5 Sept. Only bummer is they don't have the pork carnitas.

Go on prda or pull your surf and look for your rdtm code, that is what makes you eligible or not. Many of us carried the 11m label but were flying with acc and AFSOC and got paroled. Good luck

You do deploy less than most traditional pilots. We worked 8 hour shifts at creech, but showed earlier/left later a lot. With the commute, plan on being gone 10-11 hours a day. Your flight hours don't count for anything. Overall it's a very boring job with almost no satisfaction. The pay is good though. I would consider other things before this, the community is pretty much a black hole that I tried like hell to get out of.

It shouldn't take math to prove it's a disadvantage financially to stay in, thats why a "bonus" is offered. If it made financial sense to stay in, they wouldn't need to offer incentives. That being said, theres nothing wrong with staying in, especially if you don't want to fly when you get out. Just don't bitch when you get a 365, they have you by the balls if you sign up for more pain after your 10 years.

Why don't you just go talk to a recruiter? If you have had serious legal issues, the army is more forgiving on those kinds of things than the af is. I know several dudes with duis in college that fly choppers for them now.

Wasn't trying to be a dick, just a pet peeve of mine. I don't get how you can collect money for a "disability" and still serve. I know i'm probably being a mean old white guy, but it's how I feel. I'm sure you can do both though, and many do.

Disabled and still in the military? Why not

While we're at it, just close the zoo, it costs too much anyways and is always in trouble in the news. I'm serious, shut the bitch down.

I just wished we picked a correct Muslim dictatorship to fund and arm this time, what's our record over there of having these heathens turn against us?

He was in charge when my vsp got approved, for that he is better than Curtis freakin Lemay in my book.

I've been told firsthand by several guys that got to fly him that he was awesome, noting but respect. Really is sad news.

At some point in your career, you will realize how little the Air Force actually cares about your flying ability.
