Guard RC-26 to Fighters (hypothetical)
If a unit has a visit opportunity, generally I’m there (with a few exceptions as some units announced visits on very short notice. I feel like I’m building a connection, but obviously performance indicates the contrary. I am re-writing my cover letter, as that is the most recent (actually best overall) best bit of feedback I’ve gotten. I have been tailoring my letter somewhat, but am doing it more now. I have only really gotten 3 bits feedback from units. 1, I wasn’t social enough (full disclosure, I spent 5 full days at this unit, and spoke to all the pilots, so a bit confused, but obviously my feelings don’t mean anything). 2, I didn’t call people by rank (even when they introduced themselves by callsign). 3, a bad fighter cover letter.

Guard RC-26 to Fighters (hypothetical)
Well, I'm happy that post started a spirited conversation. Please carry on, but an update for those interested: still nothing, 0 for 31 on interviews, pressing on.

Has anyone heard anything from the 100th (Montgomery F-35's)? Sent and email to tier POC but haven't heard back. Figured I'm SOL but want to check.

I have not heard back from either. Got a TBNT from Tulsa though.

I got an email two days after I sent in my packet. I'd send them an email if you haven't heard anything by now.

I can confirm the above, I was told the same thing today. I haven't heard anything, or gotten any communication since I submitted my app, other than being told rushing was invitation only. With that said, I would guess invitations will go out after the application window closes, as that has been my experience. Good luck everyone.

Guard RC-26 to Fighters (hypothetical)
Oops, I’ll fix the typo, it’s fighter, not flight. I haven’t even gotten feedback from boards, even though I asked. COVID has prevented me from rushing, and I finished the degree in December, no skeletons in the closet per se (my post history has a better resume in a what are my chances thread). Also, everything has been reviewed by the guys at bogi dope.

Guard RC-26 to Fighters (hypothetical)
First some background; I've been applying to almost every fighter board since 12/19, with no interviews, no feedback, no nothing. Fighters is the dream, specifically in the Great Lakes area (with the 115th being my "dream unit), but I'll go anywhere if hired. I saw the 115th posted a UPT board on their RC-26's, and I'm considering applying. Hypothetically, if I was hired there, would it be possible to prove myself as a pilot in the unit, and then possibly transition to the fighter side, or would I be locked it? Should I apply, or pass on this and keep pushing fighters? Abridged credentials: age 24, PCSM 94, Pilot 99, Nav 99 (rest of the scores are eh), BS with 3.84 GPA, ~3,000 hours with an ATP/CFI/CFII Thanks. Edit: thank you all for your input. At this point, I’ll pass and keep pushing fighters. Good luck to those who submit an app.

Do you have POC info for DC? I finished my degree in December, and have been trying for the last few months to contact someone there, but no dice.
