BogiDope posted an update in the group
2 months agoAir Force Pilot Training (IFT, UPT, IFF, & FTU) 2 months agoSome more insights from a current UPT stud expanding on the UPT memo that was sent out:
“T-38 tracks will now start dropping heavies and FAIPS predominately (for active duty).
Also, delays are even felt here in the T-6. There will be a two-month gap between when I finish preflight and academics before I do my dollar ride (first flight in the…

Great information, terrible news for T-38 Studs. Hopefully this will clear quickly. I can’t imagine this will help the retention issues. I can see many leaving immediately to go the airlines once the 10-year commitment is up.

Super helpful info. I just finished up IP upgrade at Altus about 2 months ago and we had about 5-6 T-6 only bubbas going through initial qual sims while I was there. The general consensus was they had been screwed over by the syllabus design and were struggling to make it through initial qual.

We just created a new BogiDope group to discuss the latest/greatest gouge for the Air Force Pilot Training Pipeline (class drops, gouge, trends, rumors, etc). We just posted an official memo that describes some of the issues with logjams in the training pipeline. Check it out!

2 months agoAir Force Pilot Training (IFT, UPT, IFF, & FTU) 2 months agoOne of the drawbacks of active duty is the lack of control. Luck and timing (along with individual performance, of course) play a huge part in what airplane you’ll fly.
According to this recent memo, active duty (not necessarily Guard/Reserve) fighter slots will be limited over the next year or two until the training pipeline logjam is cleared.

Big shout out to @Albatross for earning a UPT slot through the recent Air Force Reserve unsponsored board!
Welcome to the club!

What does an unsponsored slot entail? Is there any guarantee in airframe or location?

Time for your monthly trip to the range to hit a bucket of (interview) balls. Join @SLAP tonight at 8pm EDT for mock interview practice.
Whether you have an interview next week, next month, or next year, the best thing you can do to prepare is to get reps. Hope to see you there!

Reply to Rated Heavy Pilot to fighter/bomber
@NJCS13 In our experience, what you’ve previously heard is accurate: fighter pilots can transfer to heavies easily, but not the other way around. There’s no rule precluding heavy pilots from becoming fighter pilots, and there are (very rare) examples of it happening, but it’s uncommon due to the amount of retraining (ie time and money) a…
