Could be cool to hear stories from peoples rush experiences or interview people from varying units to hear more about unit personalities (life at that location/flying that aircraft, unit-specific traits, etc). That way when trying to learn about a unit you could get some extra insight.

I enjoy the 1.5 hr podcasts, listen to Fighter pilot…

Nice job on the scores! Next biggest thing is getting flight hours. Some units are requiring you have your PPL by time of hiring board to even apply to their unit so definitely something you want to get started on if you haven’t already.

@Kratos The Test of basic aviation skills (TBAS) tests your “pilot aptitude” with a series of psychomotor challenges. There are some really good resources online to practice with. You are required to take the TBAS along with the AFOQT to get a Pilot Candidate Selection Method (PCSM) Score. They combine your performance on the TBAS,…

I also struggled with this but had success with AFROTC, I reached out to a couple explaining my situation and finally got one to schedule the test for me. Some will only do them once a semester, but keep reaching out till you find one that will schedule one as soon as you are ready. Good luck!

Application Forms-Witness Needed?

Hi all,

I am applying to a UPT slot and I am trying to fill out the required forms. For the AF form 24 and the drug use questionnaire, they both require a witness and asks for the “grade of witness”. Additionally, the AF form 24 says “Subscribed and sworn to before me at ____(location) on ____(date).” Does this need to be done with…

Hey @SLAP ,

Thanks for the response. I am aware that the lack of my PPL makes it more difficult; I have started studying for ground school and plan to keep working towards my PPL while I get all the other pieces together.

I reached out to the local AFROTC group. They gave me a POC to help schedule the AFOQT, but it has been 2 weeks and no…
