Hey @RN_Jack,

I’d recommend checking out some of our e-courses to include the Air Force section on Different Paths to Wings (open to public) and the Roadmap to UPT e-course (Members Only). These both should supply a plethora of info on the process.


Goodluck!

@Mussels,

First off congratulations, it is no easy feat getting the call that you were hired by an ANG unit! Timeline in regards of hire to OTS or UPT does vary depending on unit. It also varies on if you are prior or non prior. I’ve seen my buddies who are prior Guard Crew Chiefs get to OTS in 11 months from the call.

Rooster,

Flight hours always look good on applications to show your passion for aviation. It also it shows you’re not someone just doing this as a hobby, but rather wanting to make a career out of it. If you can’t get flight hours I would still say play the cards you’re delt and apply (I would not let up though. Keep trying to build your…

Randolph will have a few UPT class anomalies like that’s where they did alot of UPT Pilot Training Next classes, but for the most part WAS is correct they do mainly PIT (teaching FAIPS and IP’s how to be an instructor pilot for UPT before heading back to Laughlin, Vance, Columbus, or ENJJPT).

The 182nd is an ANG squadron but it’s a weird one. It’s a B-course squadron that hosts the F-16 B-course 1-2 times a year. Since it’s a B-course unit all members are F-16 instructor pilots. Most of their hires come from Rated guys and gals separating from AD, but they’ll host a UPT board once in a blue moon.

Hey Andrew congrats on wrapping up your Army Active Duty time! I have no personal experience here with that transition but know someone who has done it.
