  1. Do you know if they sent everything out? I haven't heard anything yet.
  2. Anyone hear anything from Atlantic City F-16's (177th) or Duluth F-16's (148th)?
  3. I have not heard anything
  4. I have not, so I imagine that means no.
  5. I have not heard anything
  6. Thanks, haven’t heard from the 121st either.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. I have not heard back from either. Got a TBNT from Tulsa though.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. Thank you, I'll cross that bridge if I come to it.
  17. This is very helpful, noted for the future. Thank you.
