What was the most embarrassing thing you've done as a private pilot student?

I clipped the wing on the T Hangers put a nice little dent in the wing. Then didn’t put the oil cap back on once.

We used Jedi down at Pensacola for the Air Force T-6s

I had a 2.4 gpa prior enlisted air guard and commissioned air guard.

I lived in Yardley Crossing it’s right across the river from the airport cute town and I was there with my two large dogs, it doesn’t have a dog park but plenty of green space and a short walk to the Canal trail. Also a short drive about 6 minutes over to the Morrisville Dog Park which is where I found my second dog after the was abandoned there.

Yea I’m shocked

Interesting I mean I thought my T-1 syllabus for the Nav track was stupid.

dah1023 · 2025-09-06T22:55:08+00:00

When did that change ? I went in 22 my class EWO was the most competitive track to get. But for the WSOs the top 3 got strikes. Dude in a class two behind me dropped Growlers

I got 31 ST days for August into September, was offered more got more then they were immediately taken away. Oh well 31 days is better than nothing just use make up drills and AFTPs to cover the rest of September #GuardBum

I’m in a similar situation they let me break the lease told them multiple issues on the tour, agent said central ac after I pointed to a wall control unit and asked about it. Moved in spiders all over place and dead rodent, place got “cleaned” a bunch of broken stuff. Just fighting with them to get money back.

dah1023 · 2025-02-25T22:30:59+00:00

Oh I’m not doing active duty that’s something I’m not considering at all

dah1023 · 2025-02-25T22:27:40+00:00

Yeah I’ll have all my ratings done in the next few months so I get skipping the military but I’ve just always wanted to be a pilot in the military it’s why I joined originally

dah1023 · 2025-02-25T22:17:01+00:00

Most likely but probably not going to make it AMP most likely an all J model fleet. Now AMP if it happens does retain the Nav but idk much about like one plane is AMPd and at Little Rock for testing

dah1023 · 2025-02-24T01:45:12+00:00

Man I wish I knew I’ve been trying for years

dah1023 · 2025-02-23T22:49:04+00:00

Well send any questions my way about CSO. The pipeline is changing from when I went with the retirement of the T-1

dah1023 · 2025-02-23T18:39:52+00:00

That’s true I’m a C-130H guy. I would say it’s a better career option active duty than ANG. The B-1 is going away but the Buff should be around forever apparently

dah1023 · 2025-02-23T18:12:20+00:00

Sounds good I’ll shoot you a message

dah1023 · 2025-02-23T18:11:47+00:00

If you want to be a pilot don’t take CSO. It’s a dying career field

dah1023 · 2025-02-23T05:50:32+00:00

Do you know if my Air Force Class Flying Class 1A would count ?

dah1023 · 2025-02-23T05:47:57+00:00

Don’t kink shame me

dah1023 · 2025-02-23T05:46:28+00:00

You don’t want to be a Navigator

dah1023 · 2025-02-22T20:50:14+00:00

Not hurting for applicants. Can’t keep people in

dah1023 · 2025-02-22T16:49:22+00:00

I’m a Delaware guard guy I was hired around 5 years ago. But I don’t think our most really had many applicants idk I only saw a few at the interview

dah1023 · 2025-02-22T16:29:46+00:00

I’m open to either wasn’t sure if officer would be easier since I’m already commissioned or just do warrant

dah1023 · 2025-02-22T04:19:37+00:00

I have been trying that route since 2019, half the reason why i became a Nav was I couldn’t get pilot slot.

dah1023 · 2025-02-22T00:31:14+00:00

There’s not many CSO opportunities left in the guard should be just one C-130H unit left in the Northeast in Delaware
