Hi,

Are there any members here who are pilots with the 177th that would mind getting in contact with me?

Thanks,

Paul

Doesn't generally work like that, you have to get ahold of them.

What does not work like that? I can't find the "call a pilot" hotline that does not involve recruitment :)

Or, just ask for Timmay!

He means don't expect a pilot from the squadron to just happen across your post and get in touch with you like they're customer service reps. Sure it might work, but sometimes It's all about perception. Instead go the extra mile it takes to track down the contact number for the pilot section.

One trick: Go to airnav, look up the airport/facility of said guard unit, and scroll down to additional remarks, and usually the base-ops number is listed. Go from there.

Step One: airnav

Step two: ?

Step Three: Profit!

Is it totally cool to just call such a number to inquire about openings?

Send in your application when they have a board. If you have what they want, they'll contact you. I assume you're new to this process. Good luck!

Thanks gentlemen, I figured it was worth a query.
