    2006-2008 YG PRFs due to the wing in a few weeks, seems a bit early.  Are 0-5 boards rolling left for some reason? 

    PRFs I don’t think 06 year group owes anything..... the new PRFs are 2 lines of SR verbiage.   If I have to write anything, it’s going to be PROMOTE TO GENERAL NOW

    AF is considering letting you choose if the score counts. If you failed, and you’re not overdue, it’s ‘practice.’

    That ‘stress’ is about that keeps me passing the thing.

    there isn’t a huge difference between running 12 minutes and 14.    One is a decent enough score to pass, the other is obviously a fail.

    Not entirely correct. 10 records total...5 above and 5 below...needs to beat out all 5 below the cut or any 1 record above the cut. Much higher chance of promotion from a special selection board than above the zone! 

    Thanks for the clarification.  I knew I was “close”

  4. I’ve got some 1BPZ PRFs that made it.  Here is what an HPO looks like   

     

    DG ROTC, DG SOS (#7/800); WIC Paper (#1/130); Gp FGOY (#1/101)

    #9/160 CGOs (Gp/CC)

    #5/250 Capts (Wg/CC)

    #1/160 Capts (Deployed/CC)

    #5/180 Majs (Wg/CC)

    #1/150 Majs (Wg/CC)

    #1/220 Majs (Wg/CC

    #1/60 BPZ eligibles; best I have; Sq/CC after CAF fellowship; SDE; JCS. dP

    Spoiler alert...it will sound the same as someone who makes it IPZ except the bottom line will have a #1 strat from either a WG/CC or above. 

     

    Pathways to achieve this feat are 1. be a wing exec 2. be an aide/exec for a flag officer (preferably as a captain) 3. work a staff gig for a flag officer (again preferably as a captain). 

    Better yet, make sure you check the box on just one flying assignment to ensure you have enough time to do one of the above and then PCS to a fellowship program to ensure your O-5 PRF is written as a CGO.  This way the board can see how fantastic of a CGO you are without muddying the waters with FGO performance.     

    Yup

    your record as a Lt and capt seem to matter a whole lot more than they should....

  6. Maverick went on a 12 year Scientology mission.   

     

    The ending of the movie has already been filmed.  After a tedious 30 minute dog fight between maverick and 3 enemy planes, a couple of reapers come in with air to air missiles and wipe out the enemy fleet in seconds.   Pan to a bunch of airmen drinking Mountain Dew in a storage container.

  7. I don’t agree with the super Ps because they aren’t equal   

      a super P from someone with only 2 ipz eligibles isn’t the same as a super P from someone with 100 eligibles.

     

    also, devils advocate, but pawnman was 2/2 IPZ eligibles with a 75% promotion rate.  The 2/8 eligibles included 6 APZ guys, which doesn’t equate to 75% of the eligibles.   

  8. Sorry, pawnman.  Killer bottom line though.  That’s as good as it gets sans the DP check.  

     

    Definitely was your lack of Strats in the capt/major area and it looks like the FGO and Maj Strats were a bit too late and probably the same year.  

    Still, I think the AF did you dirty
