Hi all,
What exactly are the requirements to skip IFS? Do you have to have your full PPL? Or just a certain number of hours? Do you wait until you get down to Pensacola to show them your hours/PPL and they let you skip IFS at that point? Or does paperwork have to be submitted earlier in the process? Also, does skipping IFS affect your API start date or would you start API at the same time regardless?
Sorry for all the questions - trying to decide whether it's worth it to shell out for civilian flying hours before OCS in order to facilitate skipping IFS. I searched for some answers but a lot of the material was a bit outdated. Thanks!
