Anthros for NFO training

[Aggie08]

Had my flight physical in Corpus yesterday and they said my functional arm reach was two inches too short for pilot, because I don't fit T-34's, but that I'd be ok for NFO. But don't NFO's fly T-34's in primary too?

Nope. Sherman Field's T-34s are gone, replaced by T-6s. Anyway, NFO fit check requirements are different since you're not required to get full-throw of the cotnrols.

You'll get remeasured when you check into A-pool anyways and that's the one that really matters. I was supposedly out of standards for pilot thumbtip reach when I got measured at Great Lakes but when I got down here, my measurement was miraculously 5 inches longer. The best part was running into the same HM3 who measured me up at Great Lakes the next day at NAMI....urge to stab rising...rising...
