Doesn't sound like a bad gig but they might as well just put everybody on the RPA syllabus at doss. More experience even in the da20 is better than less.
-
When I was there pilots only did up to the solo then they had their pre check and check rides. For RPA, we started doing the nav routes dual and solo plus the cross country and night flight before pre check and check. Makes sense if you think it's the only time we get actual in aircraft experience. Are pilots doing more than just solo, pre check, and check at IFT now?

That mean we are good to sign a lease before we inprocess on base?
-
That's great and all but he asked if he had to wear them and the technical answer is yes. Up to them if they want to follow the AFI. Doesn't bother me.

When I went through MFS a few years ago, they never actually sent the SF-600 but my assignment notification info said we can pick it up at our local flight med.
-
If you're at base that has flyers there might be a tailor shop outside of base that can make one for you.

1 Nov start date. Game on
-
Gotcha. I haven't seen any dates so I just emailed them. I did however get my assignment requirements email and it had some interesting stuff in it. Like saying on one sheet I need an SCI for UPT??? Also had something about going to MFS but AFPC said when I emailed them that I am good to go and don't have to go back so I guess I just need to hit up flight med when I get back from my TDY to get the SF600.
-
Did you get that date through email?
-
Anyone going to Columbus get class dates yet?
-
Any word on class dates? That's all I'm waiting for.
-
Honestly, a simple name patch should work. Your base will order you one with the correct color combo when you arrive. As long as the one you get for IFT is in regs, you're good with whatever color you want.
-
I'm toward the end of the line as well. I guess since I don't need MFS or IFT they could just give me an assignment and hopefully a class date soon. Nice! If that's what's showing for the EFMP trick then that's what's loaded for your assignment. Mine was showing that for a week before I got the email with my official assignment notification of Columbus. I guess I'll be seeing you out there!

Got my assignment notification this morning. Heading to Columbus in September!
-
Columbus was my #1 in my letter to the board.
-
Guess I'll hope for a PDD and class date next week. I think vmpf is currently down so I'll check again later.
-
Nice! I still haven't heard anything other than I'm going to Columbus. Can't even get to my CDB or AFPC Secure right now for some reason.
-
How did you find out your start date? I haven't seen anything.
-
Just to note. You don't have to have family who is EFMP to do the trick. You don't even need to have dependents. If you have an assignment loaded, the EFMP trick seems to work. If you don't have an assignment yet, then following the steps won't produce any results.
-
- Log into vMPF and click under self-service actions - Click on Assignments (while in self-service) and go down to the EFMP section - In the new tab, click on the "apply to change/cancel assignment - If this doesn't kick back with "MILPDS doesn't reflect an assignment loaded, click on next and choose any of the options then next again. This next screen will tell you what unit and base you will be going to.

Used the EFMP trick to find out I'm going to Columbus! @CoolCar I'll be seeing you out there at some point.
-
Just saw this pop up in my CDB under Restrictions in the 1st Assign category: "ATTENDING TNG PCS STATUS OVER 20 WEEKS"
-
I've heard rumors they've lengthened IFT for UPT selects. Not sure if it's true or not.
-
Man I haven't seen any assignment notifications. Hoping to hear something soon.
