    Now hat we are on the subject lets list all the planes we can end up on. F/A/E-18 E-2 C-2 P-8 E6-B 60 helo's and all the variants Missing any?

    03 January 2016

    Right. I heard prospective pilots have been requesting P-8's because of the type rating

    So maritime patrol pipeline could put you on P8 or E6-B that's it?
  6. Brandon Kies

    03 January 2016

    Am I incorrect saying active duty does not fly E6-B?
  7. Brandon Kies

    03 January 2016

    Jets...I was told by a few pilots that if you say you want to fly anything other than jets people will think you're a dirt bag

    I got the finsel email yesterday. It was passed through so many people the attachments were missing, but Paul told me 03JAN a couple weeks ago. I assume that's my official date.

    I have a feeling my Finsel will come in soon, I was on 25SEP board.

    I can't imagine ever needing to do 200 sit-ups especially not for a PRT. If you can do 100 in 2 minutes you will most likely max out your score depending on age and sex. just my 2 cents

    So who are the pilots? And who has been working out?
  13. Brandon Kies

    03 January 2016

    That sucks not having enough time to move. I'm a bit surprised that we are chalked up for a date less than 3 months out and still no confirmation.

    No new comers and no finsels. I have a feeling we won't get any for another month

    Start with orders of a sentry, sailor's creed and chain of command, those will need to be memorized verbatim. As for the levels of war and code of conduct I heard those might not need to be verbatim, but could be asked at RLP inspection which depends on the team leaders. At enlisted boot camp we...

    Also, I don't know how many priors are here, but my own personal preference is synthetic underwear, like workout ones. Reason is we often get PT'd in the middle of the day in uniform then you just roll on to whatever else. At least that was how enlisted boot camp was for me.

    Brooksie, Do you have that gouge in electronic form? Maybe you could put up a link for us. I know for a fact we will all have to memorize general orders etc, here is the doc from the official ocs site. http://www.ocs.navy.mil/pdfs/App%20B%20OCR.pdf

    I imagine the letters should come soon. My OIC is supposed to get an email, so I'll let you guys know as soon as I get anything.

    No finsel yet. I'll be a pilot, eventually. I called the active duty processor to get my date

    Well this is it. We will all meet in person. Strange how quickly it all became real. So who's driving?

    Can anyone active duty tell me who I can ask about a "penciled-in" ocs date? I'm sitting here just waiting for finsel/orders. Thanks

    October-ish 2015 Pilot/NFO Rolling Board

    No one ever knows when the board will take place, it seems most of time eventually the recruiters will know a few weeks prior. John Is right about the professionally recomended, which is the 1st step of a 2 step selection process, in my opinion it is the biggest hurdle of the selection process.

    Command recieve FS letter?

    Here is a quote from my results on BOL; Professionally recommended. **There is no further action is required on the member's part. This is not a select at this point.** There are two Yes votes required to be final selected. One vote comes from the community boards (which the Y represents)...

    If you search hard enough online you can find a published paper where the navy had a 3rd party evaluate the ASTB, specifically the PBM section and in that paper it explains exactly what gives you a good score on the PBM

    I'm not sure about going through a recruiter since I'm active duty I submitted my application directly. If your package was completely finished I don't see a reason for your recruiter to hold on to it for any extended length of time other than to make sure it is in fact correct and complete...

    Rufio or Navyoffrec, have you seen boards delayed or cancelled due to sequestration in the past few years? Thanks
  40. Brandon Kies

    October-ish 2015 Pilot/NFO Rolling Board

    To continue the speculation, I think this means it won't be held until late October.

    So the Captain that gave me my physical called and said that NAMI requested a letter from CNRC for my OCS package. If I am all set with my 2808 and 2807 medical forms do I need to worry about NAMI to submit my package?

  46. Brandon Kies

    OCS Next Pilot/NFO Board 30 June 2015

    I really appreciate the info. I found in a Officer Recruiter manual to stamp or write "CERTIFIED TO BE A TRUE COPY" on the official transcript then scan it into the doc. I'm still not sure who I can get to do this, maybe my OIC? Thanks again, and good luck.

    So after scouring AW all night I've found out that ORDPRO'd means that the board has taking those kits and is waiting to view them. Otherwise the status is just received by PM. Is this correct, and if I get my kit emailed in slightly after the 5th is it for sure NOT going to make it to this...

    For anyone active duty when you send an application by email what happens as far as confirmation for it being received or this ORDPRO'd thing?
