The ROTC detachment near me was not offering the test.

Hey Randy, I want to say don’t downplay yourself! I understand you want to be realistic but I’ve heard from many pilots that if they were realistic or listened to every person who told them no, they wouldn’t be where they are today.

Capitalize on what you can; you have a hard degree, so sell that. I’m sure you’ve heard plenty of times to get the…

Hello!

I’ve been trying to stay up to date on all the changes the Air Force is experiencing (as many of us are). I have a couple of questions in regard to Helo’s, if anyone can chime in. Correct me if I am wrong on anything I mention.

Reply to TBAS Scoring - Best Score or Latest Score?

Here is the link to check your scores and information about the test. Don’t forget to submit any flight hours you have to increase your PCSM! I also highly recommend using a practice program prior to taking the test. Expect the test to be paced faster than most practice programs.

Hello,

Question about the TBAS – are we allowed to use a sticky note to draw a compass (rotating the sticky note next to the screen) for the UAV portion?
