No, I'm driving. I was going to fly, but just about everyone on AW recommended driving. By driving, you get per diem, a vehicle for weekend liberty, and a place to store your snickers bars and other contraband...
Hey! Another person from Drought Central! Can you tell me more about your LASIK waiver? My recruiter told me to apply for one as soon as we get to P'cola - eyesight was my only disqualifer from SNA.
Hey OctoberSun, if I end up in this class I may end up driving up there instead of flying, so I'll gladly give you some trunk space and/or a ride if you want to carpool.
26 - BDCP Pilot - Non-prior
Denton, TX (about 30 miles north of Dallas)
Yes, I have an FCE scheduled for next Tuesday (the earliest it could be scheduled) so other than that I have to get into MEPS for a new physical and complete the PRT, then sit back and wait for CNRC to decide if and when I go. My only other issue is that I'm coming up for the age 27 limitation for pilot in March, so I have just four classes left to get into in order to commission before then. So we'll see what happens, I'm going to stay on them and hope they can squeeze me into the 18 Sept class but who knows.
And as far as the LASIK waiver, I was under the impression that the PRK was the only method allowed for non-priors, but they were in trial for current servicemen who wanted LASIK to see if it was compatible, etc. Did they approve it now?
