Breckey Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Yeah, considering the AF has about 2% of the DoD's helos it makes sense that we are filling helo air advisor jobs... SMH! The Army got out of it by saying that the Mi-17 was not safe to fly. It's the only deployment that Huey guys can fill other than the odd staff job.

MC5Wes Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) Is this only for certain bases or majcoms? Haven't heard anything about it at my base-I have a GS that I would love to steer towards VERA.Looks like you get another chance.http://www.airforcetimes.com/article/20140326/BENEFITS/303260035/AF-civilians-another-shot-early-retirement-separation Edited March 27, 2014 by MC5Wes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azimuth Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Rusty, I was tagged for a 365 to teach Afghanis to fly (O-4 T prefix billet). My validated TERA application made me ineligible. So they are still out there. Altus, Glad to hear. Maybe I'll know something soon. Guy at work got tagged cause he's a S-prefix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makinbacon Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Rusty, I was tagged for a 365 to teach Afghanis to fly (O-4 T prefix billet). My validated TERA application made me ineligible. So they are still out there. Altus, Glad to hear. Maybe I'll know something soon. We still have 365s from all AFSCs showing up to advise with us in AFG. What sucks is that some of them were ineligible for TERA because of their 365. Hopefully they won't get invol'd separated after they get back in 2015 under the updated AF Farce Shaping program.

Mish_Hacker Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Any bets on whether or not the vmpf migration loses all of our VSP applications? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mish_Hacker Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 vMPF is back up... I'm still "Referred to BPO." It appears that this downtime was not used to get SECAF waiver authority for UPT ADSC.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shweaty Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 vMPF is back up... I'm still "Referred to BPO." It appears that this downtime was not used to get SECAF waiver authority for UPT ADSC.... Do you think that's what they're still waiting on? I had hoped the end pause meant they got the approval. I was thinking with the backlog the pause caused us VSPers are the last priority to TERA and 15 yr retirement and we are at the bottom of the stack. My other crackpot theory is they only received pilot apps for VSP and not enough of everyone else. HAF is probably waiting on the other AFSC's to apply so they can get cut them and deny us because they filled they're quota. I'm going bat shit crazy.

Catbox Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 the servers appear to have been successfully migrated. I can only imagine how AFPC is patting themselves on the back for only taking 24 hours instead of the planned 48. Take credit where you can porch warriors!

TERA applicant Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Are there any SERB individuals that can't retire until 2015 apply for TERA? If so please let me know. I am still in a "FM Pending Auth" status... unbelievable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSCguy Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Friday is almost here...who wants to speculate AFPC will post a new RIF PSDM late in the afternoon to barely meet the deadline to have guidance out 6 months prior to the board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jstarsshag Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 (edited) Anyone else get this gem? Is it just me or does it sound like if you ask any questions about your future that has been on hold for the last 3 month, they will conviently loose your request?

aerobat95 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 (edited) I am at my wits end.....this is total ######ing bullshit.....make a goddamn decision and let us all know one way or the other. The Air Force leaders and I use that term very loosely owe that to us. I would never want to go to war with any of these incompetent POS we have as "leaders"......they would get us killed. Sorry for the rant but enough is ######ing enough already!!! Edited March 28, 2014 by aerobat95 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altus Barbarosa Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Even though I took it in the ass I've for to ask, what timeline have they broken that would cause you to spazz like that? Other than the 30 day batch shit they have yet to actually bust anything. Now when they bust the 1 April date, which I expect them to, then we will all spazZ ZZZZZ!!!

aerobat95 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 (edited) I am just fed up with the indecision with this and EVERYWHERE in the Air Force....Not to mention all the dang changes and such.....So 1 April is when we should know.....hmmmm....not gonna hold my breath but who knows maybe the Air Force will surprise me in a good way.....

I was actually just joking about the migration and using that time to get waiver authority. I definitely agree the VSP processing will probably occur after TERA, due to the timeline difference. I'm still curious as to when they will release the "updated" RIF matrix. Until that happens, I don't think they'll process VSP. Unless they are just gonna keep the RIF numbers secret...
