  1. 8 minutes ago, Lost as you are said:

    I think for the class start dates it's situation dependent. My RNLTD to Columbus (see you there!) Is 15 Sep and my current projected start date is 14 Oct. Still no orders or RIP for me though. I'm just thankful with everything going on I'm still able to move.

    Same here, was told a Columbus start date of 14 Oct.  Look forward to meeting you guys. 

  2. If the timeline is anything similar to what it was last year, we should begin to hear about IFS/MFS/UFT class dates starting tomorrow, in-line with the public release, at the earliest.  All the assignments and TDYs have to be manually hand-jammed by AFPC, so we will probably start to see a slow trickle of dates/RIPs hitting our inboxes. 

    Keep an eye on your 'Career Data Brief', under vMPF; it will list IFS/MFS under 'Projected Training' with a start and end date.  Concerning class start dates, your unit's loss roster (controlled by the CSS) is the first place to indicate any pending assignment, even before CC advance notification or the auto-generated AFPC assignment e-mail.

    I’ll just wait till Tuesday at this point, everyone took a 5-day weekend.
     

    My stats are 88PCSM w/PPL, 98 pilot afoqt.

    Yeah, me and you are in the same boat man -- no news yet.

    My stats are roughly:

    99 PCSM ~360 hrs, PPL/Glider/CFI

    98 Pilot AFOQT

    3.78 GPA - AFIT Master's 

    #1/3 Wing Strat

    An approved ETP for my AFIT ADSC.

    I see last year the list was published on the 7th but assignments didn’t come out until the 19th.  Think that’ll be the same this year? 

    Hope so.  My wife is more curious about when and where we're going. I'm just hoping if haha.  I think the PSDM says something about 7 business days for assignment notifications.

  5. I am also hoping to be notified tomorrow.  I know our Wing had only three applicants, so there are a lot of high-level eyes on the results of this board.  Here's to hoping our leadership doesn't hose us tomorrow and hold the results until Friday...or worse, until Tuesday after the long holiday weekend 😶.

    So I might be stretching here but Im hoping to get as much info as possible and hoping someone here might be able to answer some questions I had. First a little back story. When I applied for this board, I did so with the intention of accepting only a CSO slot and potentially a RPA slot. Recently I found out I was medically disqualified from CSO so I am trying to find out as much info as possible about RPA. All my questions are involving the pipeline. I know the it involves IFT (2 months), then 4.5 months at Randolph, and then 5 months at Holloman. However, AFPC is telling me these are all TDYs now and they are no longer PCSing families. Is the Air Force really separating all RPA candidates from there families for 11.5 months to go through the pipeline? It seems outrageous to me, even if they are allowing a couple weeks in between to go back to your previous station. 

    Also any ideas on how many people generally deny RPA slots? Hoping one opens up for me now that I cannot get CSO.

    TDYs seem like a win to me -- more $$ in your pocket.  Can you not take your family with you?  I have always taken my fam along for the ride, on TDYs ranging from 3 weeks up to 4 months.  Just use your MI&E per diem to offset a larger living accommodation.  Heck, go for a furnished place to save you the hassle of moving furniture over.  Take the essentials and leave everything else in storage back at your PDS.

    No ideas on how many people turn down RPAs; however, I feel that it is more competitive to obtain than over a CSO slot.  Just my two cents though.

    So I received a call back from AFPC! 
     

    - ~300 applicants with ~ 200 total slots

    - 50/50 split between Pilot/RPA & CSO/ABM

    - “Most everyone who received a slot got their first or second choice” (that’s the line that caught my attention)

    - No emails will be sent from the APFC side to those who didn’t get picked up, so we’ll all have to wait

    -Commander Notification will come out via AFPC Secure to FSS’s first thing Thursday Morning. It’s on the FSS to check 

    Not sure if this is new or useful to any of y’all but just wanted to put it out there. 
     

    Here’s to next Thursday! 

    You are the man!  Thanks for the insight.
