February 3Feb 3 Buddy just got Laughlin 15 May IPT 20 Oct UPT. Good chance they're going down the list and loading assignments alphabetically.

I really thought with the shutdown it’d all be on hold.
February 3Feb 3 Last year’s forum theorized that assignments were loaded based on merit, like those will more competitive packages were given earlier class dates. No idea if that was true. I’ll report my last initial when my dates are loaded lol
February 4Feb 4 Possibly, but then wouldn't we have heard about assignments for the ENJJPT folks first? Maybe they've already moved onto bigger things and don't associate with us lowly UPT selects lol
February 4Feb 4 Anyone else just sitting here refreshing CDB on vMPF every 5 min lol? I'd imagine it probably flows --> anyone with humanitarian consideration --> anyone coming up close to Age restriction --> then alphabetically and/or merit based
February 4Feb 4 Literally... My boss asked why I keep refreshing EFMP lolI just want to know my base!

Probably wanted to get that dinosaur his wings before he turns into jet fuel.

Maybe they've already moved onto bigger things and don't associate with us lowly UPT selects lolI do know there are some people that didn’t volunteer for enjjpt that were pretty competitive. So I don’t think that has much weight. Also the Enjjpt pipeline is backed up as well. I know a few people there that waited over a year to start.
Wednesday at 11:32 PM5 days Yesterday I had received an email directly from the rated accessions training manager and told me that I would have an RNLTD of March and class start date of April at Laughlin. Nothing officially in my CDB but I was told I should get an assignment notification in by the end of the week. My last name also starts with an A, so alphabetical assignment uploads could be possible. Edited Wednesday at 11:35 PM5 days by lilboat88
Thursday at 01:56 AM5 days Not by last name unless they started that recently. I knew a guy who started two months before me with a name at the end of the alphabet. Order or merit might be a thing or it might not but alphabetical probably isn't it.
Thursday at 04:32 AM5 days One of the dudes at Creech just got his dates yesterday. That’s cool the rated manager emailed you directly since you would move next month. Praying I move in March as well!
Sunday at 12:37 PM2 days Cheers yall, I was a UPT select on the 24 board. I’m down at Columbus. IPT complete (Peachtree City, Ga), T-6 dollar ride is next week. Hit me up with any questions. Super pumped for you that were selected!

Hit me up with any questions. Super pumped for you that were selected!Thanks! How was IPT, and is there any way we can influence where we go? Peachtree is my most desired spot, it’s right next to home Did you and your class feel ready for T-6s after IPT?
Sunday at 05:42 PM2 days I was in the second ever class of IPT at Peachtree. There were a significant amount of growing pains associated with IPT. Those should be ironed out by the time you get to where you’re going. IPT is good for bonding with your class, and getting your hands warm. There is some negative transfer with the G1000 and the legacy instruments of the T-6. Checklist usage at civilian flight schools is much more lax than in a military environment. IPT was cool. I got my Multi and instrument out of it for free.99. Where you go is luck of the draw. You can take strategic leave when you get to CAFB to align yourself with a IPT location you desire. But even then it’s not a guarantee as they fill classes as you arrive. You may get back from leave and the class you’re trying to get into is already full. It’s a little chaotic with casuals down here. Lots and lots of first assignment LT’s are waiting to start training.
Sunday at 07:18 PM2 days Man hopefully they make the IPT locations less of a crapshoot then that, I was under the impression we would find out our IPT location at the same time as UPT location.
Yesterday at 01:41 AM1 day Likewise was picked up during the 2025 board and did UPT at Vance. Can't answer any IPT questions as I was in one of the last classes on the 2.5 syllabus but graduated T-6 UPT last week and am currently in academics for the T-38. Open to answering any questions you guys might have about UPT or Vance!
1 hour ago1 hr I have a buddy who was able to find out my IPT location and it’s in PeachTree city near Atlanta Georgia!
