Reply to Picking up a Guard or Reserve UPT Slot out of ROTC
I have worked with a couple of clients who have gone this path.
Like everything else, it’s up to the individual to make the contact with the “Unit” and get them to agree to take you.
I don’t think there is any preferential treatment for ROTC members, other than the perspective member probably won’t have to attend Officer Training School…

I know it could be “cost prohibitive”, but have you considered going to a Flight School that could get you your license in a “short” time?
Also, getting to solo is important, IMHO. Maybe consider asking a flight school if they could help you with that?
Let me know how I can help you on this journey!

What kind of Units are you looking at? MAF (C-130, C-17, KC-135) or CAF (F-35, F-16, F-15)

Make a list of “what’s important to you?”…Location?…Airframe?…Work-Life Balance?…Long Term Aviation Goals?…etc.
This will make it easier…

I recommend to my clients that the people you choose to write your LOR’s should be someone that if…
TEXAStooTALLReply to How "well rounded" to make ANG resume?
Include it all, Troy! We are looking for patterns of organized, goal-oriented, hard-working future Airmen that do more than the minimum. Valedictorian, Captain of the Football Team, Student Government, Volunteer work that you have done anytime during your life have prepared you for UPT!
I like to help my clients “weave” these accomplishments…
BenjaminReply to Will IPT replacing IFT change Guard/Reserve hiring?
I agree with SMAX’s perspective. The Air Force is no different than any other major civilian flying training operation (Part 121 Airlines being the biggest).
You want standardization across the community. I am sure that the IPT syllabus, as SMAX says, will continue to evolve and change. Some people will have more experience than others…

Just curious if anyone on this thread attended the Webinar with SIC & Tyler regarding current trends with UPT?
Would love to hear your thoughts.
