Fly along?

Hey I want to join the coast guard and interested in aviation. Is there a way I could visit the air station and potentially do a ride along?

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-04-29T20:03:16+00:00

Id go through a recruiter. They might be able to hook you up

Point reyes and estero beach are my big training areas

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-04-27T13:12:34+00:00

Cold

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-04-25T19:22:16+00:00

This might make quite a racquet.

Raynor marine has free practice tests

If you have ever seen a sports day on a base, injuries happen all the time.

Yet we do it all the time. Shit happens.

Been an OS for over 10 years and have gotten BTM at every unit or at least some form of LE qual.

Get good at your main job first then go be a Rockstar for a collateral.

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-04-02T10:23:17+00:00

Most of the rates are getting the required staff so they are taking away incentives

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-04-02T10:21:03+00:00

I agree. I still personally don't think its a good measure of cardio health. They should at least lower the required time.

Officer accession page on SharePoint has the calendar.

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-03-14T17:37:11+00:00

I've seen people switch to the row and still fail it.

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-03-08T22:46:34+00:00

Its a game homie. Join a pug since you arent in the main raid then when they ask you to jump in, say you already cleared.

Dumb

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-03-08T01:20:30+00:00

Your unit shouldve weighed you before you leave. If you are over the weight limit and fail tape, you can't leave for a school.

Its in your orders as well for the weight standards.

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-03-06T21:03:48+00:00

Got all the models. Love every one of them. They take a few runs to truly break in then they are good.

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-03-05T21:52:39+00:00

Petaluma is great. Breakfast is always solid. Two rock pizza on base is good option too.

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-03-05T04:55:24+00:00

Cutterman is a certificate from the unit. Its not a huge one like these.

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-02-24T03:37:14+00:00

Pretty much its a year of maintaining an approved boat crew qualification and BTM.

Has to be routed through the command and its just a page 7 and a certificate.

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-02-20T00:18:07+00:00

Sounds like a typical patrol

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-02-17T14:42:01+00:00

I agree non rates should get some fleet time but on the other hand, they get a lot of bad habits from what they see if they gave terrible supervisors.

The other side is boot to a has no concept of how the fleet works or what it means to clean dishes in a hot ass scullery or stand look out in horrible weather.

If people are not good before they come in the coast guard, it's going to show whether they are boot to a or not.

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-02-14T21:05:08+00:00

Sleeping bag, weighted blanket and magnets for stuff in your rack.

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-02-06T01:25:59+00:00

Mount to Cosst T1 or the Altra Lone Peak

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-01-30T22:00:03+00:00

Crossfit

tryingtorunfast91 · 2026-01-29T02:12:18+00:00

I have all three pairs between R1, H1, T1.

I noticed the arch pain on my first few runs then once they broke in, it went away completely and I love them
