I’m more concerned about a last September board repeat

Does that mean this regular board might be in trouble too

I don't think they've ever cancelled a board this close to the convening date. Most of the recent cancelled boards were cancelled at least 30 days prior and I couldn't find anything looking through the older threads.

Update:

OCM has evidently finally finished their review, we’re on the last step where NRC finalizes everything before posting results.

Unfortunately, “expect results late this week / early next week” (for the third week in a row)

I’ve served 9 years for the Navy and still haven’t wrapped my head around how slow it operates.

The modern world is amazing

That being said, you are giga screwed if you break it lol

Also @elariosa95 would you say there are folks that end up flying ospreys in every class lol, curious how it works since it’s not clean cut rotary vs fixed wing?

On the marine side, yeah plenty of people get picked for tilt rotor. Statistically, that’s what most marines fly

Navy tilt is a different story. When I selected last year, selections for Navy tilt had been closed off for a few months, and then they suddenly reopened. They’re fairly rare in that one will get it every few weeks or so, at least that’s what it looked like last year; by the time I left Whiting, I think only 2 or 3 people had selected Navy tilt, but those were also only people I knew, there could’ve been more that I just didn’t know

They have, they have even cancelled boards after the convening date, NRC can do whatever they want to.

Oof. I figured things could get weird after what happened with the March Board but that's unfortunate. What were the circumstances? Budget, not enough slots, or something else?

Thank you that’s great insight

No one’s safe until results are out

Just due to available spots for that designator, contrary to what people think spots won't go away due to budget issues, and since AD boards are run by those on AD even during shutdowns they have happened.
