  1. Congrats on getting the 60 slot. I'm guard which honestly made UPT much more enjoyable. There were 8 students in my helo class at Rucker. I would say the average is between 4-10. It just depends on how many people are tracking helos out of T-6's. The transition from fixed wing to helos wasn't too bad. Rucker has a great program and the instructors are very thorough. I knew more about the Huey than I ever did about the T-6. The learning in T-6's is largely computer based vs. the instructor led classes at Rucker. Obviously the flying is different so it takes some mental adjustment (i.e. during emergencies a helicopter can land basically anywhere so it changes how you think). Plus learning how to hover is challenging at first but comes pretty quick.
  2. I just graduated from SUPT-H in June. If anyone has any questions regarding the Helicopter track feel free to ask here.
  3. My packet was approved through NGB yesterday and was immediately informed that I will need an age waiver (I turn 30 in Jan19). There are no slots for UPT for the rest of this year. So anyone going through this process, prepare yourself for the long wait. I now have to wait for the waiver process before I can even get dates and the FY19 slots haven't dropped yet so I will have no idea what they are until that happens. Good luck everyone.
