Anybody happen to confirm how to submit to the Nebraska -135’s, is it via email or mailing in a hard copy?

The posting reads like we should mail it, but figured I’d ask here just in case as an email is listed, too. Thanks as always y’all!

    Anyone know if our favorite Buckley applicant got the call?

  • You're not going to like what I have to tell you, but if you take it to heart, it will help you in the future. Your attitude is 100% the opposite of what it should be. You need to debrief yourself on

I was on the one on the 8th. Everything was pretty boilerplate. Everyone had a chance to ask questions. Let me know if you have any specific questions about what was covered. 

What are the VTANG Zoom calls? Are they specific to the UPT board or are they an inter-squadron call? or something else? Thanks!

They are for UPT. If you reach out to the POC he will send you the info.

Did you guys already submit the application to the VTANG ? I have not becuase it said on the website that applications window doesn't open till November.

I have not yet

I know it's been about a week since this was asked, but has anyone heard back from Jax yet since the video submissions?

The POC did state during one of the zoom calls that we can start sending in applications; no need to wait until November.

I heard back today - no luck this time. Looks like they are doing personal emails, so it may take them a bit to get to everyone.

Is it true that if you are sponsored you may still not meet the Reserve board? (New to this, sorry if it has been asked before).

Seems it used to be if you were sponsored and cleared medically the Reserve board was just a formality.  Now it seems they have severely cut the number of UPT slots for the Reserve so they are prioritizing the most undermanned squadrons.  

Pilot 87, Nav 55, AA, V, Q - in the 20s, PCSM 87, 2900 hours of flight time, ATP, 3.4 gpa, is it worth submitting package or try to up the latter 3 scores? Thanks in advance.

If you go to the main page, there should be a forum for "What Are My Chances?" and that typically draws some good responses from other applicants and pilots alike. 

That being said, good job on the P and PCSM. Really depends on what you're looking for, but I'd say with how competitive aviation is right now across the board, it's probably worth trying to increase your scores. But (big but) don't not apply because you're going to retake. If the deadline's coming up, send the app in! Never self-eliminate.
