    Any military aviators on here?

    I'll get a preference list, but almost everyone is going F-35B right now. Some guys are still getting Harrier or 18's though. To my understanding, most of those guys will convert to the 35 also.

    Memorizing Checklists and Emergency Procedures

    Not entirely sure! I know I have paper for sure.

    Memorizing Checklists and Emergency Procedures

    Yes! Fairly rigid structure and they supply me with a pocket checklist and a quadfold in addition to NATOPS.

    Memorizing Checklists and Emergency Procedures

    Thanks everyone. I'm not the brightest on the block, so I'll take any advice, and I did a lot of other research too. This is for Naval flight training, so I have to have the critical action memory items memorized down to the punctuation. I could've been more clear about that. I've pretty much...

    Memorizing Checklists and Emergency Procedures

    Yes, I definitely have critical action memory items that need to be memorized verbatim, down to the punctuation. So I definitely need to have those memorized. I'd also like to at least get a general flow for all checklists that way I'm not relying solely on the checklist (ie cockpit checklist...

    Memorizing Checklists and Emergency Procedures

    Thanks! It's been a while. And I'm not sure if I'll be restarting that or not. Perhaps! I let airplanebuyersclub.com expire, and of course, now it's for sale for almost $3,000! https://www.godaddy.com/domainsearch/find?segment=repeat&checkAvail=1&tmskey=&domainToCheck=airplanebuyersclub.com, so...

    Yeah they sent us a message asking for volunteers for SERE and it took me about 15 seconds to say yes haha. Just glad to actually start some training.

    Any military aviators on here?

    Yeah, I guess Marines haven't been the best about getting us to SERE so they experimented with sending a few of us before any flight training started. I had a blast.

    Hey y'all, haven't logged into the boards for a while. I went through SERE in February and am finally starting API (ground school) in May.

    Any military aviators on here?

    Yes, they still do stash jobs. I haven't been assigned one yet, but the ones that I'll pry end up with don't sound as cool as teaching sailing. We get to work the photo booth or administer **** tests (watch people pee) typically. And I stood duty already, and pry won't have to again! I've been...

    Any military aviators on here?

    Hey everyone. I graduated TBS last month and am now down in Pensacola for flight school after taking some leave. I'm loving it down here. I get to skip IFS (they solo a 172 with a civilian school) and go straight to API which is a ground school. I probably won't start that till January or...

    Things are going well! Just finished up PEX (patrol exercise). Learned how to hunt the enemy on the ground, essentially. TBS sucks but it’s really fun at the same time. Hard but rewarding. Glad I get the opportunity to do it before flight school.
