DC-8's @ BWI
What company flies DC-8's out of BWI? White plane with light blue stripes. I thought it was cool, because I've never seen a DC-8 in person.... Oh yeah, anybody flown into Jackson, Mississippi? There's a big ass bump on the runway that scared the poo out of my wife!!- chawbein

I'm trying to contact a unit to see if they have any openings for pilots, and I was wondering who I should ask for? Any tips? I am having trouble getting ahold of anyone in the unit. -
How long did you have to wait...
How long did you have to wait to get your PCSM?? I took the BAT yesterday and the Sergeant said he would email them the same day. The PCSM website said within 72 hours. Anybody have any problems? Oh yeah, they seemed annoyed because I showed up early!! When I was at the MEPS to take the... -

One small problem
I have a small problem... I am starting to think of letters of recommendation and I don't know anyone very well who is an officer. I'm dead serious, I have a good friend who was enlisted in the Army, other than that I just don't know anybody. I want someone who could attest that I will make a... -
Thanks for all the help
...scores are excellent (except for quantitative), and it wouldn't have been possible without the help from this board. I don't mean to brag, but I'm **CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED** proud of my scores. Not bad for a guy who got a 2.2 in college. Below is an excerpt from a... -
Quantitative Score
How important is the quantitative score on the AFOQT?? I got a 54 on that section. Will that be a big hurt on my chances? -
AFOQT Practice Test
I just took my first practice test last night (ARCO bood) and I was looking at the number of questions I got right. In the Scale Reading, Block Counting, and Table Reading sections I got about half of the questions done and guessed on the other half giving about the same number of correct... -

My turn coming up...
Went to see my local ANG (147th FW) recruiter yesterday, it was a pleasant experience (much more than when I met with the AD recruiter two weeks ago). I got scheduled to take the AFOQT next Thursday. She seemed more than helpful, even though I am looking for a UPT slot. Soooo, we'll see what... -
Help!!
Now that I got someone's attention... I am currently working through the practice problems in the ARCO book for the AFOQT. I am having trouble with the "mathematical reasoning" section, does anyone know where I can find some additional practice problems to work?? It has been a long time since... -
Active Duty question
What is the process for getting a UPT slot in Active Duty? Is there any chance of being selected for a spot before actually being obligated? To explain a little better, I'm not real keen on going out and joining with the hope that I might, maybe get a spot. Any comments would be quite helpfull. -
Speaking of Transcripts...
Do I need to have my college transcript sent directly to the recruiter or can I present a sealed transcript that I have already ordered? -
How can I fly the BUFF?
Does anyone fly the BUFF in the reserves 917th Wing? How difficult is it to get one of those slots (i.e. do they hire from the outside)? On that same note, the 433 AW in San Antonio (C-5's), do THEY hire from the outside? How do Reserve/Guard units feel about people who commute? Is it a big... -

Resume for Guard and Reserves
I've gotten some info. on this subject before, but I wanted to get a few more thoughts. What sort of information should I include on my resume for the Guard and Reserves? Should I include work experience? How do I list my limited flight experience? Do I include my test scores? Do I include... -
Height Limit for fighters?

Guard or Reserve?
I'm sure that this has been discussed before, but I was wondering which is the better way to go in order to fly. I've posted my life's story before, but here's the short, short version: 24 years old; married; B.A. in Computer Science, less than stellar GPA; 35hrs flight time about ready to... -
Letters of Recomendation and other stuff
I'm looking hard at going Guard. What sort of people should I ask for letters of recommendation? I'm not in the military and I have been out in the working world for about 2 years. My uncle was a Petty Officer in the Navy for 20-some-odd years, would that be a good source? Would I get one... -
Dependants and ANG
What provisions (if any) are there for a dependant during pilot training? i.e. What do I do with my wife while I train (UPT and beyond)? Can she live with me? Do I have to leave her at home for a year? -
