  1. Searched around and couldn't find a clear answer on this. What's the process like after completing the FC1/MFS? Does it still need to go to the GB for approval? If you leave Dayton with no waivers is it just waiting on signatures or is there still a chance to be DQ'd?

  2. This might be a very stupid question (as I hope it is). Would being born premature (7 weeks in my case, no health issues from it) be an issue for an FC1? The only reason I ask is because it's listed as part of my health history on a medical report. Hopefully I'm not about to open up a can of worms.

     

    Thanks in advance.

     

  3. If I read it correctly, someone mentioned that New Jersey is accepting applications for a UPT board (or would be soon). If that's the 177th FW, I called to verify but could not get a definitive answer. Sounds like they've hired quite a few pilots the past couple years. I didn't know if someone else had any more info though.

  4. I really enjoyed the analogy of the girl at the dance.

    On a separate subject, I've noticed that a point of contact in the unit isn't always given. Is this something I (we) should always try to get? Or is it the norm to only work with the recruiter whose information is given on the announcement?

    Not sure if I said this before, but I feel there is a fine line between being persistent and annoying that I don't really want to cross. At the same time realize to some of these units I may be "some guy off the street" and, of course, I want to change that.

  5. Is it standard practice to follow-up with a phone call to a unit after the packet has been submitted? I know this is common practice in the civilian world, no idea about military.

    On the same note, is there a general time frame it takes to hear back from a unit if they are going to invite you for an interview? I guess for me the anticipation is the worst part of it.
