July 08 Selection Board

[Lobster]

Hey guys, my recruiter told me that unless something freakish happens that I'm going to make the July board. I am applying for BDCP Pilot and was wonder who else is up for this board? I know last month most of the guys on here got it so my fingers are crossed that this month will show the same trend...Cheers and good luck to you all!

I was up for the June board for BDCP and was "tabled". My OR said it wasn't bad, just that they didn't want to deny me (yet) so putting me off for the July board. Only so many slots open and all.... Sheesh

You had to fast? I thought I would but my recruiter didn't say anything?

Do you guys know when the next board is?

 

[SkidGear]

hey bond def post when you make it, I am up for the aug boards with similar stats...are you just going for sna???


I scored 6/7/6 48 blah.....have around 900 hours rotor comm/instr.....etc.etc....good luck

Yeah SNA, they suggested fasting because it would make the blood work go faster, something about having a fasted blood sugar level(the explanation given to me by a healthcare professional). Typically my OR said people would drive in the day before meps and do their PRT. However the day before my meps was father's day. So we had to do the PRT after the physical. Everything above minimums so he said not to worry about it. I am just athletic and I felt like crap performing poorly.

 

[Lobster]

yeah I could see how getting blood drawn would take it out of you, I would have been a little ticked myself

Also, just to toss some more information around. Where are you guys/gals in school at and if you already fly what kinda machinery are you working with?
My first two years of school were at University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. business/marketing. Now I am at Middle Tennessee State University, aerospace/pro pilot.
More aeronautical ratings not really necessary, because the navy will teach me to fly how they want me too. However, I figure I will fly another 100hrs by the time I graduate anyway, so I might as well earn ratings anyway.
I learned to fly in a 152, took my ride in 172(152 wasn't working). took my instrument ride in a different 172(the other 2 172's* wern't ifr legal). after my instrument decided I wouldn't fly 172 unless I had too. So since then I have been flying an Old Piper arrow II, which does alright(faster with more buttons and knobs). So besides that I think about girls, being a naval officer and watching movies about both. One I suggested, The Final Countdown.

I'm going into my Junior year at Elmira College this fall. Before I got here I spent three years playing semi-pro hockey in Canada so i'm older for my class year. No actual flight experience just simulators

 

[Lobster]

Is this really it? There are only three guys up for the boards this month on AW?

My OR said he'd call me when he got the official numbers of how many were applying but I thought there would be more that were on AW...

 

[Layzee101]

It does seem kinda slim for posts....
