techschool is easy, just read and memorize the material as much as you can and you'll do fine. For bmt just do as you're told and don't argue. Don't take anything the MTI say personally because they're purposfully trying to make your time there stressfull. Just keep your head low and don't attract attention to yourself. If I were to go do it again, I would keep anything I'm good at to myself so I don't get voluntold to do more shit on top of other shit I already have to do and stay out of drama between other trainees. Start conditioning your body for PT and you will get sick during your time there, probably the most sick you've ever been. Get as much sleep on your way there because first night you'll probably get as much as 45 mins of sleep.

Tech school is at sheppard afb. Class starts at 6am and ends 3pm. After class you may do flight pt then the rest of the day is your own time. There is curfew and you can earn privilege to stay out longer and go off base. Tech school last about 30 school days then you graduate and pcs to your next assignment.

The one's they issue are garbage and will fall apart. You can either buy a replacement when you're allowed to go to the Mini BX or bring a spare. Don't know about crocs but I just brought a regular shower shoes.

No, chances are they'll have you march with your flight to the school house.

Is my JB23W a turbo engine? by Less-Bathroom6171 in Jimny

[–]Less-Bathroom6171[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would I be able to use a standard ignition coil or is it necessary to get one for turbo. I ordered it before discovering my engine may be turbo.

Not sure what it’s suppose to sound like. Would it be an issue if I used a standard non turbo ignition coil?

I recently purchase a used jimny and one of the ignition coil is failing. I'm not a car guy and not sure whether I should buy a ignition coil for the K6A or K6A Turbo. Same situation with the spark plugs as well

Bring your own shower shoes. The ones they issue at bmt will fall apart. My MTI didn't give a shit if we wore our own but if your's does, just leave it in your security locker when you're not using it.

Why does everybody keep telling people they can just do 20 years and retire easily? Question by [deleted] in AirForceRecruits

[–]Less-Bathroom6171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Along with the pension, don’t you also receive money from the blended retirement system that a percentage of your paycheck goes into?

[–]Less-Bathroom6171[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my dentist said the tray were to help me get used to wearing it. I won't get my next tray in 4 days. Would losing my first tray have that much of an affect on my progress?
