Greetings All,
DISCLAIMER: First of all I am not a detailer or a recruiter, so I have no agenda here other than passing along some info that a few bro's might find useful.
The Coast Guard needs to grow some fixed wing drivers in a hurry, so they are looking for guys in the other services to come on over. Sorry all you helo bubbas but this time around it is a fixed wing only thing. They are particularly interested in C-130J guys so if you are currently/recently qualified on that weapon system you would compete very well for a seat, but folks from all the other communities are encouraged to apply. Currently we fly the, HC-130H, HC-130J, HU-25 (Falcon 20), and a few oddball things like a G-V and a Challenger. The link below should answer most of your questions.

If you have any general questions about Coast Guard flying just do a search on this board...there has been quite a bit of good info passed on the subject. Or, just post a new question and I'm sure some one will chime in.
Good Luck,
ck130
