Hello everyone, since I didn't see one already made I guess I'll go ahead and make one.

Good luck to everyone!

My stats:
91 PCSM (Yes for PPL, 105 flight hours at time of TBAS)

24/431 (DG) Field Training 2018

Wow... congrats on your future pilot slot. Awesome stats! ENJJPT quality.

For me:

97 PCSM (61 hours, yes on PPL, 99 Pilot AFOQT)
1/46 RSS
130/398 FT (whoops)
100 FA
3.32 GPA

Fingers crossed, can't wait.
 
ENJJPT always sounded more like a personality type to me, though.

I fondly remember my days as a young mosquito wing at Sheppard being told I had to salute those T38s overhead...

That and carrying a "torch" everywhere...Good times.
 
I wish you all the best. but please remember that ENNJPT wings a lot less.

I won't swear by it, but I think they only have 8 classes a yr, whereas, Columbus, Vance, Laughlin will have @15. Now add in those 3 where they wing @900 and ENJJPT wings less than 200 you can see how competitive ENJJPT is regarding slots.
~ All UPT bases will have international students too.

ENJJPT is a great goal, but the real goal is to wing. It is a hard 54 weeks with highs and lows. See Raimius tag line blog regarding life at UPT. It is true in every aspect regarding life as a UPT student.

The only reason I see wanting ENJJPT over the other UPT bases is that everytime they are short on RPA pilots they will pull them from every UPT base except ENJJPT. Yes, ENJJPT does drop only A, F and B airframes. but if you are good at handling the stick you are just as likely to get into the 38 track at Del Rio as at Sheppard.

Plus, nobody at your airframe school house will give a rats arse if you winged from ENJJPT. They only care about getting you through their school house.
~ My DH was a WSO. Due to the fact that they had more WSOs than pilots in the school house he was double crewed. 1 was a FAIP and 1 was a USAFA ENJJPT pilot. The ENJJPT pilot busted and was FEBd. The board decided to take his wings.
Just saying they did not care that he winged out of ENJJPT.

Again, I wish every candidate the best.

This "risk" should be diminishing now. I believe 12U/18X's have had their own separate track for some time now, right?

LMAO. Fliers are always known to have a type A personality.

Not rotor-dome pilots... ;)

Great stats as well. Above the curve, you should be fine with your slot.

I just got informed my RSS is 1/16, so ENJJPT might actually be a very real possibility now. I took into account a lot of the options between UPT and ENJJPT, and decided to give it a shot. I know its a lot more work, and no room for failures, but I'll give it my best. Just like USAFA vs ROTC, its ENJJPT vs UPT; Doesn't matter where you did it, you are all the same at the end.

They have had their separate track for yrs. RPA pilots go to Randolph, which is not a UPT base. HOWEVER, when they fall short from an MPC aspect they will pull them from the UPT track and send them RPA.

It was only a few years ago right before winging night they informed the students that 2 at every UPT base minus ENJJPT would go RPA. When I say right before, I mean a few short weeks. It was :jaw: for the students that thought they would fly an airframe only to find out at 49 weeks they could be sent RPA when it came to the DROP night.

Needs of the AF always comes first. These students that entered UPT never thought RPA was on the table, but there they were a yr later at UPT being handed an RPA to Creech because at that time HQ AF MPC said we need more RPA pilots and the RPA school cannot produce enough for their mission needs.

This is not uncommon in the rated world. The fact and reality is every person with a rated slot will also deal with timing.
 
I think Jeannie Flynn Levitt and Nicole Malacowski aka Fifi would have an issue with the Testosterone comment.

Jeannie was not only the 1st female fighter pilot, but also the 1st Wing Queen for a fighter base.

Fifi was the 1st woman on the Thunderbird team.

OBTW neither went to ENJJPT.

Lets also add
Gen Holmes...Columbus UPT.
He is currently the Commander for ACC.

Just saying do not assume that ENJJPT is the end all be all. You will need to prove yourself at the school house and once operational. It never ends.

If you get rated it will be 3 yrs of proving yourself over and over again. No IP at your F16 squadron will care you winged out of ENJJPT and the other pilot winged out of Vance. Just like they won't care if you commissioned out of USAFA. The slate is wiped cleaned the minute you step into that op squadron.
 
About one week left until slots will drop!

I heard a rumor that they had a little problem with using WINGS now to do it (I don't know if its true, but it would not surprise me) so if they do come out the 18th I'll be surprised. Probably during that week they will be released.
 
My son is at Vance. RPA doesnt take anyone from UPT anymore. In fact, people slotted for RPA have been kicked up to UPT at the last moment. Dont get me wrong, I wanted my son to go to ENJJPT, but the only advantage of ENJPPT is that everyone flies the T-38 unlike UPT where maybe 3 out of 15 get the T-38. While it was once true that all ENJJPT studs got fighters or bombers, it isnt true anymore and many of the graduates get transports and other plane. Based on drop nights that I have seen listed, ENJJPT does seem to give out more fighter/bombers than UPT but not by much. According to my son, Vance hasnt given out a F-35 in almost a year although the last three graduating classes came up with three F-22. The last ENJJPT class had a F-35
 
1 step at a time.
If you get your desired rated, than GREAT. If not don't despair.
~ Many cadets are picked up alternate. Many that get UNT may find themselves at UPT right after commissioning.
~~ Both instances happened in my DS's Det. Mainly due to the FAA FC1.

I do disagree with Humey to a point when it comes to RPA dropping out of UPT

This may be true for his class as of now, but Big Blue can change that on the dime and has in the past. 2 classes before my DS's class out of UPT they dropped RPAs, even though they had an RPA school (Randolph). 18 months after DS winged, and 4 -6 weeks prior to that class winging (drop night for airframe), Big Blue said we don't have enough RPAs and at every "traditional UPT base" they took 2 from that class and sent them to RPA bc they were so short in the RPA world.
~ Too say there were UPT students crying in their beers that drop night would be an understatement.

My point is it comes down to timing. IF the RPA world is short they will hit the UPT world. Do not walk in and think that you will not go RPA. Retention is part of the equation when it comes to HQ AF.
~ You are an AS300. You will commission in 2020. You will be lucky to start UPT early FY 2021. UPT is 54 weeks. Drop night is @ 48 weeks, that places you FY2022.

Although the AFMPC always has a 5 yr plan rolling regarding the needs in every AFSC, they can't predict retention to a certainty because retention rates are tied to the economy too.
 
When do ENJJPT results usually drop? I don't think my scores were competitive but who knows.
