Whats the age limit for Aviation pipeline? I am a little concerned that I am getting too old. I am 26 btw, so feel free to make fun of me if I am horribly wrong

32 with no waiver and no prior service
Just to clarify, 32 is the cutoff to receive a commission, meaning candidates must finish OCS before they turn 32. If you leave to OCS and are 31, but will turn 32 by the time you finish OCS the candidate will need an age waiver prior to shipping to OCS.

If you don't give reporting live updates from ROM. I am going to be extremely disappointed.

Just got off the phone with my recruiter after texting him about the stuff that was posted on this thread yesterday afternoon. He said he's still going to submit mine for this deadline, but it's likely that my package will be pushed to the August board as that'll be the first FY22 board. Sucks, but not the absolute end of the world. Still gonna hold through to the end, although I might consider retaking the ASTB sometime over the summer. Maybe. Maybe not.
That will not be the first FY22 board, they have been selecting people for FY 22 for the past 2 boards, is your recruiter one that is mainly an enlisted recruiter?

Nah he's an OR. I may have just done a poor job of explaining what he told me, honestly. But that's what I got from the conversation. Main points are really just that this May board is unlikely (but still submitting), and that getting pushed to August is likely.

I got submitted this morning. My OR said the same thing, that my package may not be seen due to the board possibly being for fleet sailors trying to switch. I know it's still all speculation but thought it was worth noting.

i heard that at work today as well. reason being there was only like 5 fleet packages and that if they just used them for replacing drops from fy 21 and held all yall for august they could somewhat repair their numbers for stealing from fy 22. Chief can probably weigh in on this as i have only heard it as a speculation and wont be able to confirm it until Monday on account of the 3 day weekend. The community manager left earlier today i went to his desk about 3 but he was gone already.

I wonder if something like this would apply for those going for SNFO seeing as how there are different levels of demand for both SNA and SNFO
