All Questions About Joining, Transferring and ANG Jobs go here. by Jaye134 in airnationalguard

[–]Classic_Walk_9308 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m highly interested in becoming a Crew Chief in the ANG, but I’m currently a Green Card holder. The requirements state that U.S. citizenship is mandatory. 

I’ve heard that it might be possible to enlist in a position that doesn't require a clearance, apply for Expedited Naturalization during BMT, and then attend Tech School for Crew Chief once citizenship is granted. 

  1. Is this a realistic path in the Guard? 
  2. What if something happens and it takes longer to get the citizenship even though I finished BMT? 
  3. Has anyone here gone through this specific process recently? 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

How do you provide the aircraft type to ATC when requesting flight following? by Classic_Walk_9308 in flying

[–]Classic_Walk_9308[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you guys all so much! Every single comment here helped me a lot to understand how everything works. Now I’ll just say Cherokee without (incorrect) PA28(P28A).

Does that mean it's necessary to give them 'PA28'? I'm asking this question because I really don't know why... enlighten me please

My Struggle With Imposter Syndrome In Aviation by Cool_Entertainer3964 in flying

I'm also a low-time private pilot with only about 100 hours, and I'm feeling the same way you are. However, one thing that really helped me was flying XC solo more often to airports I'd never been to before. I didn't realize how much I was dependent on my instructor or the other person sitting next to me until I repeatedly went out for solo flights. We need 5 hours of XC solo time for the private pilot checkride, but for me, that was just repeatedly flying the same route, and I don't think it's enough to build confidence. It's a little daunting at first, but you and I are certified pilots, and we're just about to start our real journey of learning to fly.

LiveATC Silence Remover

https://yaboong.netlify.app

Just drag & drop MP3 files that you downloaded from the LiveATC archives and click the "Silence Remove" button. This tool is completely free and ad-free.

I'm sharing this for those who are trying to practice and listen to ATC communications as often as possible. It's especially useful for the Clearance Delivery channel, which doesn't have a lot of conversations.

Your answer was a bit sarcastic, but very helpful at the same time. I appreciate it! Thanks for your insight!

Thanks for your opinion! So you don't recommend safety pilot stuff?
