In the T-6 syllaus, our first flight is C4101. We don't have a 4000 block, but we do have a number of contact sims that the T-34 guys don't have. It's nice to have the gucci UTD/OFT. All of our flights (and sims) count for our NSS except C4101.
Must be. I congratulate your good fortune.
Careful what you wish for. I haven't had a week off since starting OCS. At this rate, I'll finish the RAG as an Ensign which is both kinda cool and kinda painful.

Yep. Then it gets over fixed because you get extended, then you miss wickets needed to screen for LCDR/DH.
I am unaware of another service that has such a hard time requirement as the Navy's YG+11 for a mid career wicket.

And, to pour on the salt, IAs/GSAs will no longer be...ahem..."career enhancing" at that point.
They never really were for Officers...

At best, they are neutral.. But the take seems to be IAs (right or wrong) are where commands dispose of the "trash" on the Pilot/NFO side.
Some of my SWO friends seem to have done well with IAs.

Fwiw, a lot of my buddies from OCS are in the same boat. We're all getting pushed through pretty quickly. But yeah, I'm not exactly gonna be surprised if I get volun-told I'm going to have to do some IA billet in B.F.E. for a while.
Just an update: Not sure on the Navy side, but Marines are spending awhile sitting at MATSG before coming up to TW5. I was a "priority" guy coming out of API because I was behind my peers (med down for 2 months during IFS) and I had to wait about a month before heading up to TW5. Guys who were there before me are scheduled to come up here more than a month and a half after me. So, for Marines, expect at least a 2 month (probably more) wait coming out of API. I checked in to TW5 on the 19th. I was originally scheduled to class up with VT3 on the 27th of August, but I got moved up to the 13th with VT6. Although, that part is not typical. The guys I checked in with are all mid September.
Regardless, the wait at TW5 is significantly less painful than at MATSG.

There is a guy here in Meridian who just made CAPT as a SERGRAD. My friend from Primary selected two weeks before me and hasn't classed up yet (I classed up today). I think things are moving extremely slow for the Marines right now.
VT6 is an awesome squadron and you'll have a good time...PM me for any particular details.
