Air Force 4 weeks agoSomething light for a Monday morning…
The 97th Air Mobility Wing is the “schoolhouse” for several USAF mobility airframes: the KC-135, KC-46, and the mighty C-17. Recently, the Wing hosted some interwebs personalities demonstrating the airdrop capabilities of the C-17. Though there are oodles of other “real world” C-17 airdrop videos, this was…

For anyone who needs this wealth of information shared, a third AFOQT retake waiver is possible. I’m not sure what the process is for civilians, but for those already serving it is straight forward. I submitted a request up the chain for unit, group, and wing commander’s signature per AFMAN 36-2664.
A2.6.2.2. Waiver authorities must…

@nichole-riebe Thanks for posting! Taking the AFOQT as many times as possible these days really can’t hurt you with the super-scoring system. I recommend everyone try this if they have any doubts about their scores.

Great info, Nicole! Thanks.

Air Force 3 months agoNGAD spicy take.
Pausing NGAD? Well that’s the headline, but the Secretary is careful to mention how committed he is to building the fighter.
The mixed messaging is going to be tough for congress to stomach….unless you are from Missouri or Illinois. I’d expect some hard lobbying from those states to keep the St Louis F-15EX line humming.

Definitely an awesome mission! Mission type seems to be overlooked when talking to some of my clients. The most common thing prospective UPT candidates look at is simply location and aircraft. However, everyone should also do some research on the mission type that each unit performs when trying to figure out which units interest them.

From talking with the Reno boys, not only do you need to be a proficient and current pilot in the unit, but, the process to be involved in the firefighting mission involves an additional level of trust and selection. I think flying in this capacity would be a great honor privilege! Imagine saving business, homes and putting out fires at ~150 ft AGL!

Air Force 3 months agoGreat opportunity to get rated!
Check out this Open Until Filled (OUF) UPT C-5 opportunity. OUFs can sometimes indicate an opportunity, maybe the job is hard to fill, or maybe you won’t have to interview 100 people.
Some folks love the C-5 (break in the nicest places)
But even if its not your number 1 is could get your foot in the door for a…
