    OP....Adding to above you might be able to rent a plane mid-August at the air field to take your check ride. However it's best to do it before you come if possible. Good luck.

    PPL checkride at USAFA

    I know the weather isn't cooperating, however I would try to get it in before next week if possible. To answer your question it is highly unlikely that you would have an opportunity in Colorado. You might have to reschedule for the day after Thanksgiving. I am currently at USAFA and received my...

    10 Things About Being a Girl and a Freshman at USAFA

    BLOL! OMG! Nice job @CurrentFlyGal! I thought originally it was some kind of joke. Hope the 23ers know not to take it seriously. You can't get much more sexist then that. Nice of you to speak up.

    Any reason to put an deposit on plan b?

    I highly recommend you all put a deposit on your plan B. So much can happen and does happen. Some get hurt in BCT and they are turned away for a year. So you have a year to take some courses like calc/chem etc. that will help you when you come back. You might decide like some do that USAFA isn't...

    I highly recommend you put a call in. This is not over for your DS and he can still be given a superintendent nomination. While we are on the subject some with a TWE will be appointed before IDAY as some who accepted their appointments change their minds or get injured. I know someone here at...

    The Waiting Club

    The waiting is painful I know. Appointments will come up to June (IDAY). Sometimes even after someone gets a TWE (notice in portal) stay positive and never give up hope. Am sure news will come soon for many. Good luck you are all the best of the best!

    Next appointment rush?

    Regarding above statement " Appointments could be released everyday from now until 15 April" Appointments while very few after mid April will still come in, some even after a TWE..... some up to June. While there is more to come over the next 3 weeks no one should give up hope.
