Anybody interviewing for FRED at Travis tomorrow?

If you don’t mind me asking how did you apply to them? They didn’t post any hiring announcement for a while?

    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 actually cold called them like a year ago and got their information for their board then, but then it ended up getting canceled due to COVID. Then they emailed me out of the blue a couple weeks ago asking if I still wanted to interview.

When did you hear this? I haven’t received an email yet even though they confirmed receiving my application.

The invitations to make a video were sent out Sunday evening. It sounds like it was a super competitive year like S_E said.

Got it. So it sounds like only the “yes” notifications were sent out, and nobody has received a “no” yet.

Good luck to those selected!

Y’all ever hear anything from MT?

Not a word yet here

TBNT's out from Oregon. Good luck to those selected, at this rate we're going to see 400 apps go in next year...

Somewhat terse TBNT from Oregon just went out for anyone who's still wondering lol. 

Anyone know if Whiteman AFB is allowing base visits before their upcoming A-10 board, or does anyone have any contacts there?

Totally just googled what "terse" meant...I've heard Oregon is big on guys visiting/being around the unit. Tough to do in COVID times, but could help for future applications

They are, though I’m not sure it was an option this year. I never heard back when I asked. 

Has anyone not received word from Oregon?
I have not, assuming that means we didn't get it because invites to submit videos went out, and so did tbnt emails. We must've fallen through the cracks since there were probably 300+ applications.

or they are giving us extra review 😉 ...prob realistically slipped through the crack.  I going to send them an email and ask.

Anyone hear word from Fresno 194th F15?

New Orleans 122 F15?

Montana 186 C130?

I’ve got apps in at both the fighter squadrons, nothing yet. I keep checking my email like a mad man for the 194th though haha. They said either an April or May board with interview notifications going out two weeks prior. So it could easily be mid to late April for the 194th if they in fact run a May board.

I wouldn’t expect anything from the 122nd yet since their deadline isn’t until May 15th.

Awesome! Really appreciate the update. 

Great news about the 144th, guess my blood pressure will be going up again as I feverishly check my email along with @Checksix this week. 

For what it's worth, I've had two consecutive fighter POC's mention in my feedback emails that increasing ratings and hours is a good way to make an application stand out, I'm wondering that with the growing number of applicants each year that flight experience is going to carry more weight.

Did anybody else reach out to New Orleans F-15s about rushing, submit an app, and then hear nothing back? Trying to get details on rushing.

Something like that. They never responded to my initial inquiry about rushing. Followed up today, but if I don't hear anything then I'm just gonna submit my app on Tuesday and ask to come to the April drill.

Update on the 144th/194th, board is being pushed to June with notifications mid-May, probably.
