    From my understanding, the first sim only class will start in November. Depending on how long the T-6 2.5 syllabus is, that might correlate with a March T-6 start date.

    That checks with what my orders depict, since my T-1 start date would be November 2nd. Looks like the next actual stick time I'll get after the T-6 is going to be the 135. Should be interesting to say the least....

    Anybody heard back from 180th AS out of Missouri?

    Did you ever hear anything? I interviewed with them last year. Really solid group and enjoyed spending time with them. Good luck! I remember the highest of highs and lowest of lows during the gauntlet of applying to units.

    I could just be overthinking things with the holidays and all, but has anyone heard back from the 314 ARS at Beale on interviews?

    I wouldn’t expect to hear anything until next week at the earliest. Most units do minimum manning for the holidays so it’s probably been at the very back of their minds. Good luck, I was going to apply before I got picked up at another unit. I grew up in that area and would love to go back one day. 

  4. Are you applying to only fighter units? It seems a bit peculiar that you have only had one interview with those credentials. I applied for three months, got two interviews, and was just selected after my second. All with scores lower than yours and considerably less hours with only a PPL. 
     

    I would say that if you aren’t already, apply anywhere and everywhere if you really want this. For myself, I looked at it as a “beggars can’t be choosers” situation. Also, I think you need to take another look at your cover letter/resume/LOR’s. I would be happy to review and give advice if you are interested! 

  5. Does anyone have experience with a Palace Front after being picked up with a UPT slot? 

    I am currently 3.5 years into my 4 year active duty contract as an enlisted aircrew member and just got picked up to fly heavies at my local guard base. Since I am so close to finishing out my contract (April) I figured a Palace Front would be the best course of action. I have not heard much from my unit after getting selected but I want to get the ball rolling on this. They did say that they wanted to work with my current squadron to send me on a permissive TDY to Wright Patt for my FC1, but I want to get my ducks in a row so that I don't end up getting separated from Active Duty and have to re-start the enlistment process and go through MEPS again. Has anyone been in a similar situation?

  6. I am currently serving as an enlisted aircrew member, looking to make the jump to ANG/Reserve pilot. Here is my obligatory "what are my chances". 

    25 years old

    AFOQT: 92/65/39/57/26 

    PCSM: 83 (97 at 201 hours)

    PPL W/ 50 Flight hours 

    B.S. Business (One semester left)

    GPA: 4.0 

    My AFOQT scores aren't the greatest but I'm a little hesitant to retake and do worse. I don't have a preference towards fighters or heavies, I will fly a box with wings if it sends me to UPT. Have about 1.5 years left on my active service commitment, but I figure its best to start applying now. Is it possible that since I am already an enlisted flyer and have been to SERE, that I might be better off since its one less school to send me to? I'm considering applying active as well but I would much rather get on with a unit as a part-timer and have more control over location.
