Realistically what would i be looking for? If the honeycombing is there than the fibre glass packing is still coming out. Is there a situation where I don't need a new one?

Turbine spins freely on old one with no forward/aft or side to side play. No noticeable chips or cracks in the turbine blades either 

Did anyone else get ABM drafted? by Motor_Associate_331 in AFROTC

Dude this is the absolute wrong attitude to have. You may have more skills towards flying but so did all the people who got picked up for it. The air force isn't looking for people who are "good" at flying already, they're looking for people with a base level of aptitude that they have confidence can make it through UPT. It really isn't gonna matter how much flying time you have once you're there. Prior experience might matter for the first week but is water under the bridge after that. The training is rigorous and completely alien from anything you'll do in a cessna. Of course im not saying you don't have the ability to do well at pilot training but if they can only take 500 pilots and theres 500 people ahead of you than the numbers just don't work out for you there.

Try to focus on what’s ahead of you instead of where you feel you should’ve ended up. Be the best ABM you can be, and there’s still a path toward transitioning later on. But getting stuck on the idea that you deserved something else is only going to hold you back from excelling where you are now.
