  1. Interview Notifications out for the 133rd in New Hampshire everyone.
  2. Calls to interview for the 101st went out today. Good luck everyone.
  3. I haven’t heard anything since submitting.
  4. It was a Rescue squadron. I said going out with the bros and broettes. And told them at the end of the day my ideas probably didn’t matter since they would probably tell me I’m low man on the unit and just drive the rental car. They laughed at least. I hope that was right.
  5. Posting what stuck out: -what would you plan for us to do if the crew got stuck in a 18 hour layover in Topeka, Kansas -TMAAT you sacrificed for the betterment of the team -TMAAT you made the best out of a situation you weren’t thrilled to be in. Edit: one more -Do you know what Sputnik is?
  6. Calls for interviews going out for the 102nd in NY! Good luck to all!
  7. Thanks but no thanks for CT 118th sent out (at least first round). Good luck all.
  8. I appreciate the feedback. That’s really the gut feeling I had when I took everything in about where I stood. Thanks for letting me know I’m not off the mark. Just gotta keep working.
  9. Thanks for the encouragement! I’m not counting on it being a short quest that’s for sure. Congrats on the pick up!
  10. This may be an extremely ignorant question but I assume that if you get picked up by a unit you are there to stay? My wife has agreed she would take a leave of absence for the years in training but her expectation is to return to New England so she can continue her career with the DAs office. I was listening in on a zoom call for a F35 unit a few weeks ago and I couldnt help but notice tons of people from states where the 35 will be going in the next few years. Are they banking on some kind of transfer potential?
  11. My 201+ score is 90. So I’m about 195 hours away from that.
  12. Hey everyone! First off, merry Christmas. 2nd I know I’m a little behind the game applying I just found out you could be a reserve pilot a few months ago, let alone not be a pilot to apply. ANG is the only route for flying within a 3 hour drive for my wife and I. Shoot it straight for me. Scores as follows: Pilot 94 Nav 78 AA 67 Verb 67 Quant 62 PCSM 57 w/5 flight hours. GPA: 2.872 in Poli sci and religious studies (I went full liberal arts in college and first half was rough) I’m a 30 year old firefighter working in a city in New England and have been for the last 5 years. Worked for a large insurance company before that but traded the money to be a firefighter. My goal is to show the board I A) want to fly B) am dedicated to service and C) am not the guy I was in college as demonstrated by my work since then. 3 LORs (honestly don’t know any pilots personally to get letters from): My fire chief from my fire dept My a lieutenant on my current department who was my instructor and has been in fires with me. my formal mentor from my days at Liberty Mutual. the units in the state I live in and am a firefighter in are both heavies so I’m hoping to gain traction when they open up. My goal is to up the PCSM with both flight hours and a TBAS retest in 5 months. Bottom line should I even expect an interview til I get that score up? I’ve really felt like I under performed that day and the score shows. Thanks for the insight guys.
