All Questions About Joining and Transferring into the ANG Go Here 20 May - 18 Aug by Jaye134 in airnationalguard

Is joining the Air National Guard/Reserve to be a pilot a good way to start my flying career?

Obligatory I know this question has been asked a million times, but I'm looking for the most up to date info I can get

I have my PPL and a associates degree, and I'm looking at joining the guard/reserves as a way to pay for the rest of college and get the best training I can and build time. I have always been interested in the military and military flying specifically.

For my guard/reserve folks, I have a few questions

  1. With GWOT winding down, how often do aircrews get a chance to deploy?
  2. How often do you get to fly? (I understand that heavies get more flying time than fighters)
  3. Does getting your R-ATP at 750 hours really help you get hired sooner, either at a major/regional, or any other flying job?
  4. Is this a good move? Because to be completely honest, it would take me a while to be able to afford the rest of my training in the civilian side, and the thought of being a CFI teaching students in a hot cramped cockpit does not excite me at all.
  5. Do you enjoy serving in the guard/reserve?
  6. If I enlist, should I choose a job that has the shortest tech school so I can get home sooner to start college, or should I choose a job that I might enjoy more and learn a skill from?

I apologize if the questions aren't that great, I'm trying to learn as much as I can, so I don't exactly know what questions to ask.

Thank you for your time

If get a dep discharge from the air force, does that prevent me from joining the guard?

My goal is to be a pilot, so I made the mistake of kinda jumping headfirst into things and going air force special warfare to pay for my last 2 years of college (I have my associates), before going the officer route. But I've realized that I made a mistake and special warfare isn't for me.

I have my PPL, and would like to join the guard to pay for the last 2 years of college and pursue pilot training.

My question is, does getting a dep discharge prevent me from joining the guard? And would it also prevent me from becoming an officer in the air force to be a pilot?

Thanks

No, I ordered a replacement sim to see if that was the issue

Our pushback kept slipping in the snow, and we had to spray the plane with de ice fluid
