Yes, that’s what I did. You still need to take the ASVAB. It’s easy, especially compared to the AFOQT. You may want to still check out some practice tests beforehand. Good luck!

In reply to - Allen posted an update

If one wanted to enlist in a unit (as a crew chief for example), do you still need to take the ASVAB if you’ve already graduated from college and took the AFOQT?

You still have some time to get some flight hours in before you apply. That’s what I would do. Most other applicants who get selected for an interview with have a PPL at a minimum. I guard slots are very competitive these days. I would give it my best shot, and hope for at least an interview. That way you can at least practice for next time

Thanks for your answer and perspective. I ended up asking another longtime member turned friend of an author community I belong to. It is a great idea to diversify.

I think I will upgrade to a paid membership. Especially with the Black Friday specials. The courses look very helpful

Hi team, I was wondering what information to include when talking to recommenders. I have 3 so far, all at my Guard base.

One is an active duty Lt Col pilot at my base, but I hardly know him beyond a few interactions. I also have my Chief, who is asking questions about my volunteer time in the community and at the Wing, as well as about…

This announcement applies to enlisted airmen. However, they have been giving out some pretty big pilot age waivers. So don’t let age deter you. 30 is still plenty young for the military these days anyway. You’ve got time, but also use it wisely
