stract Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 FNG to the forum but thanks for this thread. Its kept me somewhat tethered to sanity throughout this process. VSP approved with a catch.. 03 62E 2 month Adv flying training ADSC waived Got tagged to deploy several months after applying for VSP in Feb, now the DOS they approved me with today is during my upcoming deployment hrmm... Good luck to those still waiting good for you, sucks for whoever gets tagged to deploy in your stead!
Nasty2004 Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Approved. '06 11M. ~3 yrs. UPT ADSC. Congrats to all. I guess I need to get started on that Truckmaster Driving School app. 1
jsanto1 Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Mish_Hacker, can't think of any 05 11B from KBAD that applied/made it this far. Don't know if airframe is being taken into account but I'm obviously talking B-52. Don't know if you're B-1/2/52.
Nasty2004 Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 10 months TA ADSC waived I don't think that's waived, I think it'll come out of your check on a pro rata basis. BUT WHO CARES?
chizz Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Check fire...Jughead is one of the good guys. break Lots of approvals today all over the Fache Bravo. Congrats to all. haha, I love it. So when one of the "good guys" mouths off its ok, but when one of the "bad guys" does its not? Kinda like when that airman of the yr mouthed off and I couldnt reprimand her, you know, because she was airman of the yr

Don't know if airframe is being taken into account but I'm obviously talking B-52. Don't know if you're B-1/2/52. jsanto1, I'm B-1. I know of one other '05 11B that applied (another Bone guy), but that's all I've heard. Thanks for the info. Have any Buff guys been denied? Or have not many applied? If you're looking for any other 11B numbers from the Bone, let me know...
chizz Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 my buddy is an '03 Buff that applied and hasnt heard yet. rickybobby, they let a T-6 IP leave to go fly the E-11????? SCORE!!!! have fun flying for corporate
C-21.Pilot Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 they let a T-6 IP leave to go fly the E-11????? SCORE!!!! have fun flying for corporate Uh, yes! There are 6-9 guys that I know between CBM and here at RND that have the E-11 stink on them.
Dubs Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 I don't think that's waived, I think it'll come out of your check on a pro rata basis. BUT WHO CARES? Haha, yeah. Small price to pay for freedom!

SCORE!!!! have fun flying for corporate Chizz, I "volunteered" after I saw 4 bros head over to fly caravans on 365s. I am hoping to get re-qualled in the Tanker in the ANG (or stay here in T-6s) and then head to an airline job. Unfortunately my type rating expires in Aug on the global.
Nasty2004 Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 FAA type ratings don't expire, you just go non-current. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Guest nsplayr Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 ...and E-11A IP Mummm...bacon... Congrats dude & to all the other VSP parolees.
RicketyCricket Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Approved 2006 11M in AETC 3 years, 9 months UPT ADSC 2 Pickup Taco trips remaining
outlaw05 Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Congrats to all that have been approved. My application is still pending, but now I've really got my hopes up...
Cornholio5 Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) What a great day! Of the 10 or so of us 11Ms that applied in my squadron, only one was denied. From the looks of things, the 2005 year group fared out well. Congrats to everyone! 2005 11M 2.5 years UPT ADSC The only problem is that they let bucky60k out of his AD cage. Better watch out for that hombre! Edited May 20, 2014 by Cornholio5
chizz Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 FAA type ratings don't expire, you just go non-current. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk correct, you are just non-current. and all it shows it you can fly a jet like that and it gets you in the door to about 50% of the corporate gigs if they like you. most of us without that kind of type wont even have a shot even if i have 3x the amount of hours you do.
Vspapplicant Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 So, more approvals tomorrow? Or was that the big push?
HuggyU2 Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 most of us without that kind of type wont even have a shot even if i have 3x the amount of hours you do. So... how many people do you know that are in "corporate flying" (as you put it)?
chizz Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 A former commander and E-11 pilot in particular. A couple former kc-10 guys with GV types And one without (family friend) and a bunch of other randos like a local guy for a jewler and a family friend used to for a car dealership. Why do you ask?
ucf_motorcycle Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 06 11S approved about 3.5 yrs left on UPT ADSC Just checked my email from downrange. Now I got to find another job in 4 months.... Has anyone asked about pushing back the DOS since these approvals got delayed so much?
Infamous Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) Just curious. With the huge amount of people getting out combined with the VSP what do you think it'll be like hiring at the airlines? I imagine there will be a decent amount of legacy guys applying too? This job market could be interesting and I'm sure will make the hiring departments of all walks of civilian aviation happy Edited May 20, 2014 by Infamous
Sierra Hotel Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 I know I'm at the back end of the gravy train but Approved (deployed)... 2005 11M, T-6/C-5 UPT ADSC: 3.0 years waived Denied on 1st attempt, re-applied. CDB & CMS not updated yet... Still show "ref to AFPC off vol sep pay" but have the email. Good luck to all of you guys on the outside, you can have my airline/corporate slot... Going to try my hand at a non-flying gig. -SH
FUSEPLUG Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 From the looks of things, the 2005 year group fared out well. Congrats to everyone! Thank God. Now I don't have to do a PRF!
WannaPC Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Congrats to everyone who got approved so far!! Out of curiosity, has anyone actually gotten a disapproval email yet? I know someone had posted an article or email a few pages back explaining how that would happen next week but then I swear I saw someone post that they had a guy get disapproved. Just wondering, as many of my friends have gotten approved but yet I still have a few who haven't heard (in the same year groups). It's just interesting to me and I hope they're just getting a delayed approval. Again, congrats on your freedom!
