I just finished Primary at Moody AFB and expect to start Advanced for Helos at Whiting in the next couple of weeks. I'm looking for any useful tips for moving to Milton, checking in, ways to prepare, etc. Thanks.

Im not exactly sure who goes where and when, but is it possible to stay in that area the whole time? Trying to think about the wife's continuing education
It's actually really easy to do when you're married. Somehow the "needs of the Navy" always seem to involve saving the money it would cost to move you and your family to Corpus/Vance. You should be able to do it pretty easily (speaking as one who has done it). The only problem with your plan that I can see is what might happen if, during primary or API, you decide that you don't want to fly helos. I can't understand why anyone would decide that, but it happens. Don't let yourself get so caught up in your wife's continuing education that you stop from trying to fly what you really want.CORPSviation said:Can i stay in FL for all phases of training?
