How is this going to change when C-17's delpoy for 4 months straight? Can you make more money bumming then AD? Don't some C-17 bases have weekly milk runs?

Thanks for the info guys.
Actually, I am going to a C-17 unit. I was just curious about my future financial situation...that is, before Fedex picks me up ;)


Orders are toast. i wouldn't count on them. They're just not going to need as many of us on orders with the three week SRT's and the deployed squadrons. They've already started denying people's requests. If things turn around, and you get them, bonus. But I'd plan on averaging 2-3 K per month bumming as a 1lt. It's just really hard to predict how things will work out. We really need the airlines to pick up and open up some breathing room in the Reserve.
 
These forums are confusing. The C-17 guys over at baseops said that there were too many trips available and bumming will continue for years to come.
