  1. It's the Growler. Dudes go to B course with the Navy and learn to fly the EA-18 then report to the 390th Electronic Combat Squadron at Whidbey. You do a tour with them then transition to an AF airframe. From what I've heard it's because we don't have the EF-111 anymore and this is our last dedicated attack/electronic warfare platform and to bring some of the skills to other platforms. You also don't do any carrier stuff. I've heard from some Air Force guys saying it's a good gig and my Navy friends love the Growler.
  2. All CBM 24-06: 2xT-6 FAIP C-17 Travis MC-130 Kirtland KC-135 MI ANG KC-46 SJ KC-46 McGuire C-130 Ramstein C-130 Little Rock U-28 Hurlburt C-130 CA ANG LC-130 NY ANG C-130 MN ANG 24-07: KC-135 Eielson C-130 Ramstein KC-46 Travis C-130 Little Rock 4xT-6 FAIP C-17 Dover C-17 Elmendorf AC-130 Hurlburt C-5 Westover 2xKC-135 MacDill KC-46 McConnell C-17 McChord F-16 Homestead F-15E SJ F-22 Langley F-16 Tulsa F-35 TBD B-52 Barksdale
  3. Let me know if you guys have questions. I'm leaving Columbus this summer.
  4. Probably the class start date assuming the course code is the one for the T-6. But your class date could change once you get to Columbus. They're a little backed up.
  5. Are you RPA? You won't have to go again. Two years ago, people who did go went anywhere from March to May with UPT start dates ranging from June/July all the way into the following January.
  6. Basically, if you're a pilot or RPA select. You'll go to MFS unless you've already gone before. Your IFC should be stamped approved or stamped approved pending MFS. If it says the latter, you're going TDY to Wright Patt to get your eyes looked at.
  7. Ayyy I know who you are and you know who I am. We both have a mutual friend who has been tdy in Japan for the last several months. Hit me up if you have any questions about anything. I'm guessing you're in trans now on the new syllabus? I'm out at Altus right now but I'll be back in April.
  8. Probably email. I'd say just buy a CAC reader for your personal computer if you're concerned about it.
  9. I think the person who posted it messed up the link. It won't work yet. You're still within the 7 days to decline period so assignments won't even begin to get loaded until after that.
  10. 37th or 41st? Congrats on the dollar ride and good luck. I was in your shoes last year and thought the same thing. Well worth all the stress from just applying to everything thrown at you during upt.
  11. https://www.cae.com/defense-security/what-we-do/training-centres/usaf-initial-flight-training-ift/ Know the boldface before you get there. That's all you need to know before you arrive. I'm sure reddit and other places have good tips but you only need to know the boldface and ops limits.
  12. Same as previous years I'd imagine. You get 7 days from the official public release to email afpc to decline your selection.
  13. I don't think that's what they meant by diversifying the results. Scores also aren't everything. If you didn't get the results you hoped for, it means there were other areas of your package that you were beat out in. I know guys two years ago who weren't selected at all with scores similar to yours.
  14. Only the number 1 person gets additional points for the package from what I hear. After that it doesn't matter what your commander's ranking is. I was 3/3 squadron and 5/6 wing.
