Anybody in Vance AFB right now?

So I was 1 of the 3 lucky bastards in my API class of 26 total that will be heading to Vance in late May. I was wondering how the track selections for intermediate training were looking as of late? Mostly Helos/props? or is anyone getting jets?

Short answer: It changes from week to week. The typical answer of 60% helos 20-30% props 10-20% jets holds true (around Whiting). But honestly, dont even think about that crap. That alligator is in Florida and, currently, your boat is in still in California. Worry about passing checkrides and stuffing your brain.

When I went through 27 the worst (most likely to be a dick) IPs were VQ(P) and Marines. I guess I got lucky and never flew with any bad ones.

Isn't that the same numbers for Corpus? Does it actually matter what base you do Primary at?
