HH,

Man, I gotta say I LOVED teaching part time in an active duty unit. Lots of great guys in Possum town, and only 3 hours away. If you can stand not being shot at and being a training toad a while--it seems (outside looking in) like a great gig. If I hadn't already secured a wonderful job flying Eagles part time, I think flying T-6s amd training new guys or raging around in T-38s would have been great. Ditto the T-1...not an airlift guy by trade but some of the nicest dudes I know at FDX do that part time and dig it. I'd say you'd probably be a great fit.

Just shine your boots. AETC will have its own pains, but its a great place to share what you've learned all these years.

I've about had it with this crap. 7 years left is too much for med benefits that will probably change by the time I'm 60 and a 1500 buck a month check. I'd be better off flying extra at my airline and investing that extra money.

Some aspects of the AFRES were more rigid and idiotic than the AD. I feel your pain. I dealt with some mickey mouse BS as well and just decided to quit playing. I miss the flying and 75% of the folks from the 18th, but have not regretted my decision at all. I had 8 years to go, but decided it was not worth it. FWIW.

Flew with an FE not too long ago who was doing the Colombus instructor gig, he said they are way over full, and he was thinking of leaving. Anyone have friends at the tanker unit in Fairbanks?

The Phx unit is always looking.

I've heard that the PHX unit is one of the hardest to get in...? (Got a bud who flys for SWA talking to them)

We have one a year. It's a super drill over four days to knock out all the ground stuff. We super drill in Feb and make up July's drill then. This way we get one month off in the summer without drill.

Don't forget on the ANG side that all UTA's, except Sep, have to be made up by 21 Aug. That little gem threw a monkey wrench in everyone's plans.

I've got a minimum of 6 years to go and having been furloughed once I will not get out of ANG until I absolutely have to. I still like flying the C-130 over anything I have flown in the airlines.

Which PHX unit are you talking about? F-16 RTU?

No the tanker unit at Sky Harbor.
