Another question if anyone knows the answer, if you have some civilian ratings (ie. PPL or PPL and instrument rating, but not multi-engine), will you do the whole program or an abbreviated version?
Hey everyone,
It looks like IFT is going away, and IPT will now be required for everyone regardless of ratings. From what I’ve found, IPT is a 139-day program at a civilian airport where students complete their Private Pilot, Instrument, and Multi-Engine ratings. So far, I’ve only come across articles mentioning IPT locations in Mesa, AZ, and…

Jchip, Jeremy and 2 othersReply to Picking up a Guard or Reserve UPT Slot out of ROTC
Hi D.J,
I’m a recent ROTC grad who was selected for UPT in the reserves and will be in processing soon. Guard is a bit difficult since there is no formal board for ROTC cadets. Basically, you’ll apply off the street like any other applicant and if you get selected by a unit, request a conditional release from AFPC. Whether or not that release…
Reply to How much has your score improved after prepping for a second test of the AFOQT?
First time: AFOQT pilot: 66, PCSM: 67
Second time: AFOQT pilot: 99, PCSM: 91
That PCSM score is from only taking the TBAS once, so it shows how much improving your pilot score helps, and I also had max flight hours for both of those scores. Hope this helps.

My first pilot score was a 66. I then decided to invest in 3 months of one on one tutoring with @Tutor-Gunboss and improved my pilot score to a 99. I believe the third time still requires a waiver, but study like your second time taking the test is your last. It’s worth taking the extra steps with tutoring and making an investment in your…
Dylan and Nelly19How much has your score improved after prepping for a second test of the AFOQT?
I am just curious to know how much people’s scores have improved after prepping for a second test of the AFOQT?
Also, has anyone recently been able to take a “3rd” test and does it still require a waiver?
TIA

Picking up a Guard or Reserve UPT Slot out of ROTC
I apologize if this is a repeat question, but has any one, or does anyone, have information about how ROTC Cadets can earn a Guard or Reserve UPT slot after they complete ROTC? I have worked with a couple of clients who were looking into this, but I wasn’t sure if there was a specific program that allows you to do this?
Any information would…

As my previous post talked about 6th gen and that Alex pointed out was awarded to Boeing (hmmm wonder why?!), other nations are investing in their own 6th gen. Who knows if this is a publicity stunt since the US announced 6th gen contracts but the article below shows China’s “6th gen” flying over populated…

China's two new stealth fighters should send shockwaves through Pentagon
The competition to win the next war is heating up fast. China just released videos of two different sixth-generation planes, putting it substantially ahead of US military development.

To me China is nothing but publicity stunts, we should take it seriously either way just in case this is real, but from what I’ve seen on China they’re a paper tiger.
