The only waiver I've ever seen is to waive the board itself. When one washes out of our FTU because they just can't hack single-seat fighters, leadership often offers them a waiver to the FEB. The terms of the waiver are generally acceptance of an ACC crew aircraft, basically anything but single seat fighters. Not sure how the B-15 fits into the mix. The WG/CC is the waiver authority.
Sometimes the waiver is not offered. A dude washed out of my FTU class and was not offered a waiver because he washed out for reasons that the leadership deemed "safety of flight" problems. They went after his wings. His own words - it was the shittiest experience of his life. He won and got a B-1. That's my only data point for a waiver not being offered. If problems are due to SA and safety of flight, the waiver may not be offered.
Hi,
What was his safety of flight if you don’t mind me asking?
