So what you're asking is if you're a rock star in P-3 advanced can you change to E2/C2. I've never heard of it. I think your only option is going the Masterbates route a few years down the road.

Transferring from one pipeline to another
- Thread starter PCHomerun_4

Uhhhhh.........no. Like Zab pointed out, there are a few exceptions every once in a blue moon (requesting a transfer and getting drafted for one are completely different by the way), but that type of transfer rarely happens.
I have actually known a few people who transferred pipelines before being winged but it was always being transferred from jets to E-2/C-2 or P-3 etc and not the other way around. Zab's buddies are the first I have heard of a P-3 guy going elsewhere, and I have known a lot of aviators.
The only pilot transfer from props to jets that I know of was a Hawaii ANG C-130 guy who rocked flight school and got F-15's instead. That was an internal ANG thing though. The only NFO transfers I know of were guys who went Strike/Fighter to Strike or VP and one Strike guy who got Strike/Fighter because a guy cheated (long story).
So, long story short.......it does nto normally happen, so don't bet on it......
I stand corrected by those with greater experience, apparently anything is possible if the planets are in the proper alignment and a butterfly flaps its wings in Asia
I should have said I haven't heard of it happening in the last year during the time I've been in maritime advanced/RAG.
I should have said I haven't heard of it happening in the last year during the time I've been in maritime advanced/RAG.thanks for the info, sounds like I'm locked into the P3 community, but that's cool with me, the mission sounds awesome, just really wanted to land on the boat though. I selected pretty recently and didn't exactly get my first choice so just curious if I had any options.
I highly doubt I'd ever apply for a transition years down the road. I think once I get to my fleet squadron I won't be lookin' back, as brett said. Also, from what I hear you have to go straight back to an operational squadron (no shore duty) if you transition. Is this what you'll be doing MB?

If you call 2 years in flight school with ZERO responsibilut besides being a student, no shore tour, then yes, back to back sea..
