  1. Anyone have a specific link on mypers? I did a cursory look and couldn’t find anything that specifically referenced covid 19 and delaying separation. I did find a Separations PDG from Aug 2019 that talks about cancelling a DOS, but didn’t have specifics about changing an established DOS.
  2. Shaft, thanks for posting, I’ve been interested in CalFire since we had that other thread a while back. Are you guys still 6 on, 1 off? I think I read there was some thought of changing that up? It seems like fire season is getting longer each year.. is that changing operations any? Can you post some more info on the pay? I know it’s not a $350k wide body airline job.. just looking for a planning factor? And lastly.. what’s it like on family life? It seems pretty good, home most nights right? But I’m sure there’s more to it. Thanks!
  3. I’ve got a 17z takeoff, we’ll make a call at level off
  4. Agreed, I think I may pursue that angle some more.
  5. Copy, that was my understanding of the AFI. I’ve heard of people getting PTDY approved, but it’s probably be doing done incorrectly and I wouldn’t want to gamble that down the road some FSS dude notices and now I’m charged for leave I was planning to take terminal with.
  6. Anyone have the job hunting reference handy? I’m Palace Chasing and as far as I can tell I’m not entitled to that PTDY
  7. Is there more to do beyond getting the 422? Also, I haven’t gotten official word from AFPC yet, but I can see in CMS that mine has been approved. 11M, asked for 6 months off, submitted 30 Dec, had intent to hire letter submitted with package. Longest single part of the process so far was getting the Wg/CC signature on the 1288
  8. I submitted mine recently and asked for 6 months, all approvals so far, so I’m fairly optimistic that I’ll be good to go and will find out soon.. however I heard the same thing and wish I had asked for an extra 2-3 months off..
  9. Acquisitions for the government is done by those inexperienced/ineffective individuals that remain behind while all the experienced and effective dudes/dudettes leave to work for LM, Boeing, etc.
  10. So what’s a potential defense here? Short financials and reits? Buy gold and bitcoin?
  11. Now I’m second guessing my apps.. what is considered an accident or incident? I’ve shut down so many engines I have no count. I had a pretty unique emergency once but we recovered the aircraft with no damage. I listed my over speed, no damage, with my Q3; but not under incidents. What’s the threshold?
  12. It’s sim time only. Also, 80 hours isn’t going to be a deal breaker for a mil guy. I’m a child of sequestration.. 1/10 of my total flight time is Other time.. counts for zero.
  13. Congrats! Interesting that you had disapproval’s, I thought inside of 6 was a sure thing.
  14. Which is also basically the same attitude our national leadership has regarding Afghanistan and our endless wars in the Middle East
  15. Why do you prefer bad elf to stratus?
  16. Same, thanks for sharing your experience
  17. Did this kid run over the 4-star’s dog and get his daughter pregnant?
  18. And an FTU and a WPS?
  19. Also.. GPC limit is pretty high now, $20K? at LRAFB, we are supposed to be getting a “super GPC” (held by the Group RAs) that is supposed to have a crazy high limit.. $200+K. They say it’ll be here by FY20
  20. Checks, plan on submitting one year out from the requested separation date. Have a few more months to wait.
  21. How far prior to your requested separation date did you submit the PC app?
  22. Not a new transfer. You can add kids and swap months without incurring additional time
  23. Just a Herk driver with no clue in the world.. landing configuration at 6000 feet? No way, that seems crazy. Is that standard ops for a 767?
  24. Earliest you can submit a PC app is 12 months from your requested separation date?
  25. The revocation status of the smart card certificate used for authentication could not be determined. Thanks Comm.
