Reply to The best way a college student can go about flying in the military
Unfortunately there’s nothing that could guarantee anything. You never know what could get in your way that could cause something to change. I’m not too familiar with the Marine program, but have heard that if you sign your contract and later cannot become a pilot for whatever reason you’re on the hook for a job of their choice.
My advice to…

4 months agoAir Force Pilot Training (IFT, UPT, IFF, & FTU) 4 months agoSome more insights from a current UPT stud expanding on the UPT memo that was sent out:
“T-38 tracks will now start dropping heavies and FAIPS predominately (for active duty).
Also, delays are even felt here in the T-6. There will be a two-month gap between when I finish preflight and academics before I do my dollar ride (first flight in the…

Great information, terrible news for T-38 Studs. Hopefully this will clear quickly. I can’t imagine this will help the retention issues. I can see many leaving immediately to go the airlines once the 10-year commitment is up.

Super helpful info. I just finished up IP upgrade at Altus about 2 months ago and we had about 5-6 T-6 only bubbas going through initial qual sims while I was there. The general consensus was they had been screwed over by the syllabus design and were struggling to make it through initial qual.

4 months agoMilitary Test Prep 4 months agoHas anyone used afoqtpracticetest.com for test prep? I’m particularly interested in feedback from those who have taken the AFOQT and can comment on how comparable the questions are. I’ve watched some of Tutor Gunboss’ webinars, and while they seem similar, I’m cautious about wasting time, especially with my test date approaching on September…

@EricD Tutor Gunboss will take you to the finish line. I’ve used multiple softwares and 6 textbooks, but Gunboss’ material and insight was superior. I spent 9 months studying and scored 99 Pilot / 71 CSO / 99 ABM. Unless you feel ready and absolutely have to take the test on the 21st, I’d take the time to book a couple sessions per week… Read more

If I could do it all over again, I would have just worked with Gunboss. I bought all the study books, they were ok, but working with Gunboss is what helped me get that 96 Pilot score. It really helps to have a personalized studying approach, especially if you are like me and math isn’t your jam.

The best way a college student can go about flying in the military
I’m currently a senior at Florida State University, working towards my private pilot license. I’ve always wanted to pursue a career in military aviation, but I’m unsure of the best path to take. If anyone has advice, I’d really appreciate it. I’ve looked into the Marine Corps program and the Air National Guard, and I’m specifically…
