I'm 32 yrs old, (turning 33 in 3 months) currently working on my private pilots license. I have 45 college credit hours. I was thinking of enrolling into Active Duty to find stability, finish my bachelors online while serving. Then using the benefits to pay & finish flight school afterwards. Spoke with a pilot who served Guard over 30 years ago and told me to look into it, so thankful to find your channel! My question is from my position/age and lack of education, with hard work and some good luck can I make this work? Through the guard of course.

How do you avoid over performing a aircraft? Heard another pilot talking about it being very easy to accidentally go super sonic which can get you in trouble

How long do you serve as an officer in the airforce?

I did 4 years active duty. Spent most of it at Dover Afb. My biggest mistake was getting out. If your lucky enough to be part of the USAF you should be proud. It's a great experience.

I'm 34, and want to do fulltime and commit to it until I get old. I recenlty lost a lot in my life so I'm thinking of joining air force. I'm single and have no responsibilities aside from my condo and car. For now I have a monthly bill of $2,5k, would I be able to pay the bill while im away? Any advice would be awesome.

I did 3 years active-duty Air Force and went palace chase. Then I did 2-year regular Air Force reserves and then did 1 year in the Virginia Air National guard. I enjoyed the Virgina Air Force National guard the best.

Dude this is great. I’m in the middle of Active and Guard because I wanna travel and meet cool people

Thank you very helpful. I was looking for people's experiences with the timelines.

How many hours did you obtain after you completed your training?

Its not what it used to be...same with the airlines..

they may be trying but they arent succeeding. takes forever to get to TFOT and then UPT

How is it being on the ground forces as a NG? Like a security or special force

I wonder if any soon-to-be Air Force officer has been assigned to UGPT without asking for it. "Sorry to do this to you, Cadet, but despite your grades, they don't want you for engineering..."

Thanks.

Will like to connect with you? Im in the Reserves and waning to become a pilot

I'm in highschool looking into ROTC for college and then serving in the reserve, very interested in flying C-17s as well, do you have any tips for newbies and how is the pay?

This was so very helpful to me, thank you! I was in the dark about the Active Duty and National Guard for not knowing about the Air Force as a whole. This gave me all the relevant information that I needed.

This guy is bluntly honest, that takes balls sacks to do, my friend you are unique, may God always bless you 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

I did 4 years in the Active Duty Air Force, got out and "Palace Chased" into the Air National Guard for another 26 years. Spent 15 years of my ANG time as an AGR. There are pro's and cons to both sides but I loved the Guard.

Why did you decide to go from Fighters to Heavies and was the TX course easy for ya?

Any advice for old guys? Currently 33, 98 PCSM, 93 AFOQT Pilot, 270 hours, commercial with instrument. Maybe I’m a bit too old/late considering the age limit. Your 2 cents?

Can someone clarify something for me. I am 34 going on 35 next month may 27th.. I’d love to try my shot at becoming a pilot in the guard or Air Force. I spoke with a recruiter and he said there is no age waiver it’s strictly you have to have started before you turn 35. Everything I have read and looked up says there are waivers and I seen a few people speaking about becoming a pilot at 36-37 .. now I am unsure if they started before 35 or was the recruiter just stern on killing my dream which I feel like he wouldn’t but I’m certainly unsure now.

Is it also a 10 year commitment for national guard/reserves for pilots?

Great video. Thank you for the information. I am currently enlisted in the reserve and I want to commission as a pilot. This helped clear up some questions I had.

currently a spouse at Sheppard. im sitting at 1200 hours with turbine and turbo hours. going in for civil path to wings right now (97 on pcsm). im curious what kind of written, oral tests will it be and how to prepare that? should i open up my old sheppard test prep? thank you!

As someone aspiring to find a route to get pilot training, I love this, I was thinking active duty but I’m going to ask about reserves

How are pilots assigned a squadron?

Hi, I’m stationed at Travis and want to go the route you went. Who can I talk to in the 301st? Is there an email I can reach out to?

7:50 Although The mention of the Civil Path to Wings (CPW) program is exclusive to the Air Force Reserve. This is not the case in 2022, as I and a few applicants that I know very well are on an active duty track. Thanks for a very informative overview!

This was the best C-17 pilot video EVER 👍👍👍 I never saw a video like this please do more!

Hey! I am concerned that my prior records of me taking zyritec will disqualify me from becoming a pilot. I used to have a mild allergy to pollen but it seems to have gone away. What should I do?

My son is finalizing his paperwork for the upcoming Airforce October OCS/pilot board. He has his degree,PPL, good scores on test and good meps. Letters of rec. as well. Also has his package in with the Navy.The Navy cancelled the previous board. Hopefully he gets lucky here shortly. He is 28 though, could that be a real problem !?

I am not a citizen of USA, is there anyway i could join the USAF

Is this the 301st airlift squadron?

I have a question about the resume template under the AFRC UFT Guidebook attachments. Should I change the font and font size? It seems like it would be very difficult to read

Any way you can make a video or talk about how you prepared for the AFOQT and TBAS. I'm active duty and I'm working towards applying soon. I have the AFOQT and TBAS in August and was wondering what you did to prepare for that. Thanks ! Your content is very helpful.

Congrats on 520 Subscribers!!! Keep going!! 👍👍😁😁

Was getting ready to start studying for the AFOQT and was hoping you could give me some advice on what to study and how to ace it as well as maximize my PCSM scores, thanks again!

Does the AFOQT/TBAS/PCSM have an expiration? I got a 99 on the AFOQT and PCSM back in 2019. However, My Guard unit wouldn't approve my release. I'm just wandering if I will have to retake everything by the time my contract is up in March. 2023

this was so helpful thank you

Great videos can you bring a fighter reserve pilot here

Are you able to bring a reserve fighter pilot into a video? A reserve fighter side would be nice

Can you talk about your wash out? What you did wrong and can you tell us how to prevent it from washing out. Also

Interesting sounds pretty hard to join a flying a squadron it’s almost like a try out lol and or gatekeep

Thank you for the videos they are awesome! How can I apply for your unit or similar?

Hello sir...may I pls know the max age limit for a pilot slot in ANG

Fantastic video!

Hey sir I’ve got a question about the C-17 track to the airlines. I’m a 22 year old junior in college PPL+ Instrument with 90 hours and I’m a f-15 guard crew chief. My question is if I was to get hired by a heavy unit with my CFII and about 200 hours would I be able to go to a mainline after completing a 6 month prog tour and becoming a traditional guardsmen or would I still have to go regional. Thanks
