    Pilot/NFO Board FY 19- Oct. 2, 2018

    Posting here because I’ll probably end up back at OCS with the people on this board. Heard from my recruiter about a month ago that I was picked back up and to expect either the November 4th or 25th class date. I was in class 03-18 last year and got an NPQ for pilot due to my eyesight. Came...

    As far as I know, yes. I was told that acquiring my instrument rating would be considered a significant change, so I'm sure gaining a PPL would as well.

    Oh wow. At least you don't have to worry about aging out or anything. Could be worse

    11JUL17 Pilot/NFO board

    Pro Rec Y SNA. Found out yesterday. This was my second attempt; I submitted for the April board and was only offered NFO. I never had any intention of applying NFO, but my recruiter told me I "had to apply NFO as well to submit for SNA". It was not what I wanted; I've already made a serious...

    I simply know what I want out of life. Now kindly eat shit, troll. Everyone else, thank you very much for the kind words and advice; I sincerely appreciate it. I plan on resubmitting and potentially submitting an AF kit as well.

    12 APR 17 SNA/SNFO Board

    Well regardless, congratulations everyone. I plan on reapplying asap. If turning down NFO hurts my chances, then so be it. I never wanted it in the first place. Personally, I'd prefer to PIC Cessna 150's for the rest of my life than sign for 10 years knowing I'll never fly a fixed/rotary wing...

    No waivers and absolutely nothing on my record. Had great references too. I can't wrap my head around why I wasn't selected.

    I may have had a coupe of Budweisers tonight... but no matter what happens, we're all gonna be alright. Hoping to get a nice birthday present from the Navy today with an SNA Prorec

    12 APR 17 SNA/SNFO Board

    Personally, I have nothing against NFO's; I just want every chance I can get to fly. I'm currently a pilot so I know I love to fly. If something happens down the road that's out of my control and I have to redes, then so be it. If I'm going to put my name down on paper for 10 years though, it's...

    What the heck. You'd think they would review all of the NFO only people first. You can have mine.

    Sounds like your recruiter is just trying to pressure you into NFO

    12 APR 17 SNA/SNFO Board

    Maybe a few people have switched from NFO to pilot... in the last decade or so. If you sign NFO don't get your hopes up to ever pilot an aircraft for the Navy

    I also think the same thing. Just talked to NRC, Prorec for NFO. I asked about the SNA results and he said he hadn't heard anything yet. Said more than likely some people will be prorec'd for both. I put SNA/NFO on my app, but will only take SNA. My recruiter said I "had" to put NFO down even...
