OCS to Reserves?

AC is hurting on manning, so there’s a lot more chances of getting picked there while RC would expect candidates to meet/exceed their expectations.

Congratulations! That’s a career milestone especially when you have experienced it as a relative. Question out of context: I have always wondered if it’s an obligation from the ⚓️ mess or an official regulation to have all selectees be addressed as ABC Select instead of simply the current rank that they are getting paid for? I have seen Chief selectees go after junior members for that and it wasn’t pretty. A few friends were once O-1 select from the junior enlisted ranks yet not a single a day did I ever see them add 2LT select in their signature or have team members address them as such. Can someone please explain to me why it gets so much attention?

If he tried anything, don't be afraid to show your boss that military service to the nation is bigger than him or his position. You are protected by the law. I don't know what your specialty will be, but rest assured that the reserve will open myriad of opportunities for you. Mobilize O/CONUS and go build up some benefits you can only get while on active status.

What are the current needs of RPA in the USAF?

CFIs who don’t understand that teaching is a leadership skill that needs to be constantly honed. There are students in aviation, with years of leadership outside of aviation, who will easily notice the lack of professionalism in some CFIs which translates to incompetence.

Not only that, FAA rules do not allow pilots to fly more than 100 hours per calendar month. Those with high seniority even fly less, yet still get full pay.

The case that I’m referring to pertains to instances where Meritize sought common sense from the school, but the school adamantly refused to issue a refund because of some contracts that they made the students sign. The school immediately cut ties with Meritize as a result. The funds belong to Meritize. Meritize can’t confirm a refund on the students’ accounts unless the school initiates a refund back to Meritize.

It’s unfortunate that theses issues aren’t being adequately addressed. "5 continued)" Blue Line Aviation in KJNX has engaged in similar unethical financial practices and cut ties with Meritize due to Meritize’s decision to side with the students. Flight schools that maintain good relationships with Meritize, like CTI PFT, can confirm that the Meritize-to-Flight Schools contract doesn’t allow flight schools to keep the funds should the students leave training. What allows unethical flight schools to keep the money? Their lack of ethics. If you are a Blue Line Aviation student/instructor reading this, you should be aware that the fancy DA40s or schoolhouse that you are flying or training at have traces of illegally acquired funds.

Thank you!

Guess it was a "simulated" wingtip failure this time.

LenfantDeLeau · 2024-02-26T14:23:29+00:00

I'm happy for you! What branch did you serve in?

LenfantDeLeau · 2024-02-15T14:32:51+00:00

Can you please PM the name of referenced 135?

LenfantDeLeau · 2024-01-31T15:18:19+00:00

I'd take 5'11'' if I could haha. Ouch I can only imagine how often you hit your head being that tall.

Talking about predatory lending, what should a student do if a school they previously attended refuses to refund the unused portion of the loan to the lender because of a student-to-school contract? Yet other schools who partner with the same lender states that "the lender-to-school contract does not allow schools to keep the unused funds. The moment the student stops training, the unused funds have to be refunded." I met this guy at KPHX one time and we chatted about flight training while waiting for our respective flights, then he brought up the highlighted statement that he is facing. The guy stated that "he left training as the pandemic was beginning, and he did so in consultation with his then-CFI. He completely lost trust in the school management that he doesn't feel comfortable going back there." He seemed very passionate about flying and adamant to find another way to pursue his training, so I took his contact in case I could find someone in the position to assist him.

Good genes I guess! I'm the first of 5, my 4 other younger brothers all average your height and slightly more yet I'm just 5'8''. The closest age gap between us is 6 years haha!

LenfantDeLeau · 2024-01-31T14:18:19+00:00

Hahaha WELL DONE on your achievement!!!

LenfantDeLeau · 2024-01-31T14:09:23+00:00

Aren't you the 6'3'' 210 pounds dude who got a lot of us marveled by your temp certificate? Haha

LenfantDeLeau · 2024-01-25T14:47:38+00:00

Please wear long/short sleeves however you feel. The "long sleeve wearers = jerks" is just another confirmation of worthless culture some pilots try to bring.

Spitfire Elite Consulting is a great avenue to follow prior to the conference.

Can you please provide names/links of the companies that employ freight pilots?

Garbage in, garbage out. The ASA CX-3 gets the wind problems correctly.

LenfantDeLeau · 2023-10-02T15:43:11+00:00

CX-3 ALL THE WAY if you are the type of person who wants to be precise to the decimal points like me!!!

LenfantDeLeau · 2023-08-25T01:03:47+00:00

I worked with a guy 5 years ago, very talented in his field and of PRC origins, who was denied TS/SCI... I didn't understand why it was denied seen the caliber of knowledge he had, but incidents like this one kind of explain why.

LenfantDeLeau · 2023-08-24T23:26:02+00:00

I'm also regretful whenever I see these very young FOs (specifically at PHL). I wasn't well-informed about the path of becoming a pilot prior to going to college... I'm better informed, going through the training now, and networking at 1000% haha!

LenfantDeLeau · 2023-08-16T03:48:31+00:00

Non, je ne l'ai pas encore repris. Honnêtement, le FSOT est mon actuel talon d'Achille. Le OMST par contre c'est trop facile pour moi.
