testimonials

BogiDope Has Helped Hundreds of People Like You Get Into the Cockpit of Their Dreams

"SIC was super helpful! Had a good format for the hour/went over all of the big questions, was really generous with his time, and was supportive and encouraging even when I know some of my answers sucked. SIC helped break down the questions in a way that was really helpful in comparison to just going through the online prep. Going through the online prep felt pretty overwhelming at times, and he had clear methods that simplified a lot of what the online prep suggested. I really appreciated how encouraging SIC was throughout the whole hour! I was so stressed about my interview, knew a lot of my answers didn't sound good, and was nervous about meeting with a bogidope rep and having my lack of preparation highlighted. He was so positive, constructive, and concise in what the structure and critical components to include in your responses are."

"This service was extremely useful. Like many aspiring military aviators, I have already done a lot of research and legwork on my own accord. This service allowed to be better focus on what matters more strategically while also getting connected with an already niche community. I likely saved months of time from taking less efficient steps in my main goal or otherwise trying to spend hours digging for it in outdated sources. Husky was awesome. By sheer coincidence he resided fairly close to where I am at as well in the Ventura/LA area. Encouraged me to get connected with others seriously hustling this path in the Bogidope services while also offering points of contact beyond the strategy session. He also provided precise actionable steps. The pricetag being close to $100 was a bit steep for me considering I am a college student and largely self-funded in my entire journey. Something closer to $50 - $65 would be more accessible for me."

"Chris was amazing. We did 2 sessions, packet and interview prep. He said my packet was solid and didn't have too much feedback, and I agree it's overall solid. Quickly we pivoted to interview prep. The second session was interview prep, and honestly, 90% of his questions were almost exactly what I encountered in the interview. His feedback was crucial to my experience, and I felt completely prepared for the interview. As the questions rolled on, I could see exactly how Chris wanted me to answer them, and my answers felt natural because I had just practiced the night before. Scheduling was super easy, Chris was available a couple days after I signed up and I appreciated being able to see his availability. I didn't find the course too helpful, but I've interviewed before. From an outside perspective it definitely has some good info, and the "ways" of answering questions was helpful. At first I thought it was the expensive, but after my experience with Chris I absolutely see the value. I didn't know what to expect going into it, and I'm very glad I did."

"Chris "Sharky" Mazzei was unbelievably helpful. He gave awesome insight in small details that I looked over with my initial preparation for my interview, and I was left feeling 1000% more confident in how to prepare better going forward. Please do yourself the favor of giving a coaching session a try, you will not regret it! Chris recognized my lack of readiness with grace and was extremely generous with going past the time allotted time to make sure I was provided with well intended and useful critique on my questions and how I answered the mock interview questions."

"Pros: Francis was very very helpful. Will be following up with her to make a game plan for the next few years. She gave me a full hour which I very much appreciated. Cons: It was a little convoluted as far as the (sign up) process goes. After you become a member I feel like the signup page should look different, or just show the price based on your membership. The value was definitely there, but I feel it was like 40-50% more expensive than it should have been."

THIS IS YOUR CALL TO TAKE ACTION

It’s time to break free from the sidelines and waiting for that elusive ‘someday’ – the day when you’ll magically feel more confident, when conditions are just right, and everything becomes easier.

We all understand that ‘someday’ is essentially a synonym for ‘never.’ If you’re ready to take the leap and shape your future in the world of military aviation, the moment to act is NOW.

Seize this opportunity, and watch your life transform like never before.

faqs

Anyone targeting an Air National Guard or Air Force Reserve pilot slot—whether you’re brand-new to the process or already rushing squadrons and want to maximize your competitiveness.

No prior military or aviation experience is required. We start from the fundamentals and build progressively. Some candidates come with flight hours or military background, while others start from zero—our program accommodates both.

Plan to dedicate 3-5 hours per week to get the most from the Bootcamp. This includes attending live sessions, watching training videos, and completing assignments. The program is designed to work around full-time jobs or school schedules.

All live sessions are recorded and made available in your student portal within 24 hours. While live participation offers the benefit of real-time interaction, you won’t miss any content if you need to watch the recording instead.

Absolutely! Each student receives personalized feedback on their resume, cover letter, and interview skills from experienced military pilot coaches who know exactly what squadrons are looking for in candidates.

The Bootcamp provides structured, step-by-step guidance with accountability, personalized feedback, and access to coaches who have actually served on hiring boards. Our systematic approach prevents the common pitfalls of self-guided research.

Yes! The Bootcamp is specifically designed with ANG/AFR hiring processes in mind. Our coaches have extensive experience with these units and understand their unique selection procedures and culture.

Much of the résumé, networking, and interview prep applies universally, but the curriculum is laser-focused on ANG/AFR hiring. Future tracks for other pipelines are in development.

Week 1 of the Bootcamp is dedicated to exploring different military aviation paths and aircraft communities. You’ll learn about fighters, heavies, tankers, and helicopters to help determine which best aligns with your goals and strengths.

While we can’t guarantee hiring outcomes (no program truthfully can), we provide all the tools, knowledge, and preparation needed to maximize your competitiveness. Our past students have achieved significantly higher selection rates than the general applicant pool.

You’ll also be invited to join our alumni Mastermind network where you can connect with other applicants and receive ongoing support during your application journey.

We offer a 14-day satisfaction guarantee. If you complete the first two weeks and don’t feel the program is right for you, contact us for a full refund.
