Sunday is Reset Day:
BogiDope,
Sunday’s are reset days and you should start off by making your bed. Sunday is your day to reset yourself spiritually, mentally and physically. It is your day for laundry, groceries, meal prep, church, gym or windy walks. Whatever helps you reset your body and your mind to prep for another week of work, school…

Husky replied to the discussion Hiring question in the forum Air Force 2 months ago
Ya I’d second what Slap said. When I was a hiring guy I lost and gained folks in these situation. There are always ready alternates eager to jump at the chance and most units are jealous – they only want to love people who love them the most.
A difficult convo but I’d recommend your friend have it as early as possible.

Great to see the iron flowing! Looks like there’s a spot for your name on the canopy rail.

Give ‘em the Gun!
Much respect to the A-10’s 30mm. But check out this video from an F-16 range day. That gun makes a hateful sound (~15 second in).

Hot Take: Introductory Pilot Training (IPT)
Air Education and Training Command (AETC) owns most of the pilot training pipeline and appears to be pretty far along to its next evolution of the process: IPT. I attached a solicitation for bids that is available in the public domain (eg google).
Husky’s Take: They’re clearly pretty far along in…

So for National Guard, each state looks a little different. The workhorse is the C-12, which most states have. Several states have the C-26 but it is much less common.
It’s worth noting that in the vast majority of cases, the Guard will hire you into a rotary wing platform to grow you as an aviator in their primary mission set (lift, attack,…

I’m sometimes asked by non-military clients during Interview Prep about how to answer possible questions about UPT commitment when the candidate has a spouse, significant other, or a larger family with children. The concern is that they somehow feel like the need to bring their family to UPT would somehow be seen as a hindrance during the…

I have a checkride for my Private Pilot License in 10 days, and I’m planning to take the AFOQT and TBAS soon after. For those who’ve taken the AFOQT, do you think my recent PPL studying will help me score well on the pilot section, or should I also focus on some additional resources to aim for the highest score? Thanks!

I’d recommend getting an AFOQT prep course or book. Also, there are multiple sub tests that are used to compute your pilot score- math knowledge, instrument comprehension, table reading, aviation information. Good luck and congrats! I’ve got some study tips for the TBAS too, just let me know.

Great question…definitely recommend additional AFOQT-specific practice. Many of the subtests that factor into the AFOQT Pilot Component are not directly-related to your PPL study. We have several resources here at BogiDope, including an in-house AFOQT tutor, #Tutor-Gunboss, and a dedicated Military Test Prep discussion group with webinars and…
