July 27, 200916 yr If you get a job there, stay away from the WOPR- "the only winning move is not to play."

If NORAD is not on the list for your plane, they might be able to make a drug deal with another team.
August 1, 200916 yr Who and what occupations get to work at NORAD? Can pilots volunteer to work there? Most definitely--LOTS of rated positions, particularly in the J3. My last assignment was NORAD--I left just over a year ago. The job itself was a bit "eh" (staff work is staff work), but there's no beating the location IMHO. You imply you're a pilot, but don't mention your MWS or rank--preponderence of rated slots there are filled by 11Fs, O-4 & O-5s, but there are a handful of captains and heavy drivers/EWOs/ABMs/etc. In fact, during my time there, a fair number of non-pilots got picked up for 11x jobs there when they volunteered for them since the billets were going unfilled. Let me know if you have any specific questions, I'll do what I can to answer.
