I got zero got'dayyum sleep last night because you don't know the difference between the AD and OTS pilot boards. Congrats though ;)

I lol'd. Only cause I've been doing the same thing. It's already 1400 at Randolph...I bet they're closing up shop.

I'm saying Thurs/Fri this week

The way I understood it this morning, seemed like 3-4 weeks from now. Hopefully they release it sooner though.

I just called...told 3-4 weeks before results are released. Could be just the standard answer they are giving right now though.

Looks like last years board had 43 picked up for UPT and 7 for ENJJPT...not too bad of numbers. But then again, not sure how many applicants there were.

I'm waiting to hear as well for this AD board. Check out AFI 36-2205 para 1.5. It doesn't give a time frame but it shows who it goes through. Hope this helps, good luck!

I personally think he wasn't going for hossa's head. Hossa turned in toward center ice right when Torres was coming in with his shoulder. I would understand a 5-game suspension but 25? Come on..

Torres didn't "jump" the way everyone is portraying the way he did. It's his forward momentum as he goes into the check. As you can see, he led with his shoulder and finished his check the way Rainman said. It's just because it's Hossa..

Yes, it is possible. However, unless your detachment already has a system in place for getting incentive rides, I wouldn't call a squadron directly. You're a cadet.

I'm going to Vance with an EAD of 16 May, IFS March 2013. I hope it doesn't change. My colonel told me they were not "placeholder dates, but actual dates". I'm pretty skeptical though.

Smokey - If possible, that'd be great!

Read the previous 7 pages. Oh, and they take a lot of blood.

Having a PPL, or at least some hours, shows that you can comprehend the information for flying. And then also, it shows that you enjoy the flying as opposed to people who get to flight training with no flying experience and who thought it would be "cool" and then deciding it just wasn't for them.

What's surprising is that it took this long.

Hey guys, I had a quick question, are we allowed to wear any ABU certified boot to FT? The boots my class were issued are extremely uncomfortable and I bought my own and was allowed to wear them throughout the year with no problems. In the FTM it just says "Boots, combat, black or sage green w/ ABUs" Thanks

I can understand where a person with high flight time believe they know all and were taught the "civilian" way, but I don't think at least having a private pilot's license would be detrimental. I have about 19 hours and hoping to finish up my PPL before the end of the year. Thank you for the responses!

Toro, I understand that having a PPL or more won't guarantee you a pilot spot, but it's just something else to put on the package that shows you want to fly. How would a good amount of flight time work against you?

It shouldn't be. I got Mono last November, worst thing in the world. I wouldn't wish it upon anyone lol. My doctor said you can feel the effects from Mono up to a year but it shouldn't hinder your flight physical.

lol so far this is the best, most honest advice
