1nfrequentF1yer Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Looks like Fresno boards (according to 144FW website) are suspended/postponed/canceled. Not sure which one... As of today: Quote *** Until Further Notice the UPT board is suspended and no visits to the unit will be approved *** UPT Selection Requirements: The 144FW will be holding a UPT board on TBA *UPT Application Packages are due by TBA *Interview Notifications will occur approximately by TBA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone stay safe out there. Everything non mission essential Air Force wide is on hold right now (most people are teleworking), so I doubt we will hear much aside from all these boards/interviews being postponed for awhile. I do feel like not hearing any news is better than being told "no thanks". Some units are not allowing their people to leave the local area, so traveling to interviews/rushing squadrons is also a no-go for a lot of active duty until mid-May 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CavGuy Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 (edited) If this continues for the next few months, I could see units doing Skype/Facetime interviews to keep a flow of people coming to the unit. Edited March 20, 2020 by CavGuy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodflightcowboy Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 I know this is a weird time so I'm not putting too much stock into it, but has anyone heard from FW or Toledo? I heard from Tulsa - and I know others did - but the board is TBD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 112th FS just sent out an email saying they are delaying a month or two due to the Covid outbreak. 2. I spoke briefly with a pilot at the 121st in DC. They are in the same boat and pushing it back but he said he was pretty certain they are not cancelling it so nothing to do but hurry up and wait for now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll call at some point again this week but what I've heard is CA ANG is delayed until a later date until this situation returns to "normal." Keep in mind everything is shut down. No non-DoD visitors to any bases right now, MEPS appears to be closed, active duty and AF reserve recruiters (at least the ones I've been working with) are in a holding pattern, even the USAF recruits can't ship to BMT right now. This sucks for everyone but nothing we can really do. Just keep yourselves in shape, healthy, and squeeze some hours in if your local GA airport is still functioning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd call them or reach out to the POC and see if they just missed you. Everyone's life has been turned upside down right now so pretty easy to imagine a simple mistake was made. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilotcrum Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I was told by my reserve recruiter that the Air Force is not taking on any more people through the process (filling out paper work with a recruiter, going to MEPS, going to FC1) to become pilots for the rest of they year? Can anyone confirm this? He said the reserve boards are still happening and luckily since I've got everything done besides getting picked up that if I apply to the May board there will basically be no competition. Sounds crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems fishy to me personally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Init2 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 The only thing that has happened to me was my FC1 was rescheduled NOT cancelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hefe Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I was accidentally sent the list for Guard FC1/MFS dates. I know the Guard has stopped scheduling MFS UFN. Looks like first “available” appointments are early July but not sure if they’ll actually fill those slots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
