Dusty318 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Hey all, I'm new here but not new to the hunt for a UPT slot. I've been hitting it hard on the NG interview circuit but haven't been able to land a job yet. Couple of alternate-selects but that's it. What resources/tips/TTP's do you guys recommend for learning about the AD UPT application/selection process? Is it best to just work 1-on-1 with an AD recruiter or can I do things on my own like you can on the Guard application side of things? This forum is called "Pilot Selection Process", but not many folks seem to be talking about the application process itself, just the post-selection stuff. Appreciate the help and good luck to everyone looking for a chance to fly. Before you go and hang me for my crimes (asking dumb questions), I have looked through old forums and the "ROE for posting".

Are you a civilian? If so, and correct me if I'm wrong, but I would assume you have to go through a recruiter. Otherwise just wait for AFPC to post next board's PSDM (usually late April/early May). It outlines exactly what you need to do to apply. You can look at last year's PSDM to get an idea for what to expect. I would imagine not much will change. Things you can do now ahead of time (and should do if you haven't already): - Get your FC1 accomplished. This can take several months and a lot of guys miss the application deadline because they wait too long to start it. - Take (or retake if necessary) the AFOQT and TBAS. There's study materials, tips, etc online. AFPC posts average scores each year of pilot selects so you can compare your scores. - Get civilian flying hours if you have the time and money. Will increase your PCSM score until you hit 60 hours and will show the board you're serious about flying. If you've been applying for NG slots you've likely already handled all that.
