    TBAS Waiver

    in Pilot Selection Process

    Posted

    Hey all. Does anyone have any SA on if there is any possibility whatsoever to re-take the TBAS a third time by waiver?

    I know you can get a waiver to re-take the AFOQT a third time, but was not aware if there was a way to get one for the TBAS. 

    Thanks!

    For everyone’s SA.

    The 148th FW posted this on their Facebook page.

    The 148 FW will be accepting applications for Undergraduate Flight Training (UFT) opportunities 1 July through 17 August 2018, with interviews for those selected to do so to be held between 13-16 September 2018. Please see the attached documents with more information on application requirements. 

    Deadline for receipt of applications in our office is 17 August 2018 (received by 17 August, not postmarked by 17 August) 

    If you are interested in applying, please send us the following information:

    - Applicant Information Sheet (attached)

    - Cover Letter

    - Resume

    - Official College Transcript (original or a copy of original)

    - AFOQT Scores

    Your application package can be sent to:

    Attn: Maj Gina Keppeler
    4680 Viper Street
    Duluth, MN 55811

    Notes

    * Individual tours are not done for prospective UFT candidates during the period of time we are accepting applications

    * We use the whole person concept. Let your accomplishments speak for themselves.

    * Flying experience and aero-ratings are highly desirable but they are not required.

    * Candidates selected to meet the Interview Board will be officially invited to interview with the unit. It is your responsibility to provide a current phone number and email address to contact you.

    * Typically we hire one primary candidate and one alternate.

    * Age Cut Offs:

    -Prior Service Aviators: It will depend on type of airframe experience

    -Non-prior Service: We prefer age 28 or less prior to the interview date (you must be in UFT by your 30th birthday and the available training slot is generally for the following calendar year)

    * Fulltime Employment

    -This Board is for part-time/traditional Air National Guard positions. If selected, you will be on active duty for training for 3-4 years but ultimately you will revert back to traditional/part-time status when training is completed.

    * UFT Packages: Concise, well organized, with a professional appearance are required. There is a great deal of competition for these slots and your application package is your first impression to us. Make it count!!

    For additional information contact:

    Maj Gina Keppeler, gina.m.keppeler.mil@mail.mil

    Best to all!

    Guys who interviewed at the 120th/Buckley, what was the timeline on hearing back? I thought I recalled them saying might be a week or two after they send names into HR. Any news good or bad? 

    No word yet. The head of the board said he was going to call everyone regardless of the decision. Keep an eye out on the phone.

    Of all my guard/reserve fighter bro’s, I only know a handful who got hired by the first (or second, third, etc.) unit they rushed. Takes a lot of no’s for most. Good luck. 

    This is the truth. Most get it within 5-6 interviews or in some cases more. Congrats to those who score it on the 1, 2 or 3, but patience is key. Continue to refine and push harder.

    So DC already has their candidates? No chance for interview if you didn't already get that Skype interview? 

    Not at all. Don't give up any hope until the notifications come out. Hope for the best, assume the worst. That's what I have learned. Keep at 'em!

    Anyone hear from Fresno yet? Also what was the deal with DC? They already selected all of the people they want to interview? 

    As far as to DC, they had over the phone interviews this past weekend. I am not aware of in person interviews being released yet. I have also asked around, and others have not heard.

     

    Do not know about Fresno.

    Haven't heard anything from DC yet. I'm sure everyone is prepared to withdraw all the green from the unit rushing fund for airline tickets. Keep us updated if good news starts coming round!

    You are not kidding about that......Sounds good. Will keep all in the loop if anything is heard soon. Cheers.

    To the tune of our favorite Buckley applicant, has anyone heard of the results of the 120th interview board? All that commotion was confusing and was curious as to if the final decision has already been made. 

    From what I know, the results have not come out yet.
