Motivated! Thanks been watching since the ocs guide!

[@jmladdy]

Congrats on Strike! Your ASTB video was a huge asset for me last January when I began my process of applying. I'm on the 25JAN21 pilot board so I hope to hear back on selection in the coming weeks. Love the idea of creating a community here, you have a member in me!

[@FaithByFlight]

Awesome man! Glad to hear it! Keep us updated on when you go.

[@TrollerzTV]

Did you get selected??

[@jmladdy]

@@TrollerzTV I wasn’t. Gearing up to reapply for the June board - as long as they don’t cancel it.

[@astro_karbowski]

Thanks for these videos man, I’m current Air National Guard enlisted looking to pickup a SNA/NFO slot one day. Have my private, instrument and Comm ASEL but the ATSB was a mystery to me as compared to the AFOQT. Ordered a bunch of study books and I’m gonna hit the test well prepared when I finish my degree!

[@FaithByFlight]

Get after it man! It's a good career

[@TrollerzTV]

What do you mean by a complete mystery?

[@tyrexshow934]

Thanks for the videos and congrats 👏! You'll make videos about the phases of T45C and FRS ?

[@FaithByFlight]

Thats the plan, but Ill see what I can do in regards to OPSEC

[@westonarmendariz947]

Your texan had the 3 screens? Don't they use the analog gages but in little screens?

[@harrisonwells2950]

Love the videos. Keep it up! What did you find to be the most challenging of part of primary? Was it similar to others' challenges?

[@FaithByFlight]

Most challenging part for me was getting all the EPs/Checklists and procedures down. The flying aspect was very natural to me, but I am an outlier in the group having 600+ hours under my belt. For most, it was that they were flying an 1100 HP aircraft after only flying 10-15 hrs in a 100HP aircraft. So the transition was difficult as well as learning how to fly at the same time.

[@BFBArena]

Congrats, maybe I’ll see you in El Centro

[@illbill1811]

Is platform selection after primary the same for NFOs?

[@FaithByFlight]

I believe so, but Im not an NFO, so I cant be 100% certain

[@deuz9849]

How many jet slots did your class had on your week? Edit: How many jet slots should i expect in the future?

[@FaithByFlight]

2

[@JackSmith-ev1gi]

@@FaithByFlight how many people graduated your week? What is the average class size?

[@FaithByFlight]

@@JackSmith-ev1gi We had 6 people in my squadron. I think overall, with all the squadrons combined, it was around 20 people. My class size started out with 8. I dont know how many finished.

[@JackSmith-ev1gi]

@@FaithByFlight so 2 of you got jets out of the 20 or so that graduated during your graduation week? Or was it 2 jets out of the 6 in your squadron? Also, I’m applying for May 2021 board so I hope to get picked up! 🤙🏼

[@FaithByFlight]

@@JackSmith-ev1gi It was 2 out of 6 in our squadron. I think there were 2 others out of Pensacola and another one from the opposite side in Corpus. So 5 total, maybe 6 if I didnt count right out of probably 20-30 selectees at the time. And good luck man! Hope the time goes quick for ya

[@connorwinton4343]
