My question is, Can I volunteer in reception once i report to my next unit at the welcoming center or drop a packet once I am at my actual unit?</p> </div> <div class="clearfix"></div> </div> Response by Sgt Private RallyPoint Member made Jun 24 at 2022 4:08 PM 2022-06-24T16:08:55-04:00 2022-06-24T16:08:55-04:00 SGM Private RallyPoint Member 7743059 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The obvious answer is to get type rated in an airframe they have, so 47s or 60s for your first job.<br />Then you need a few outstanding OERs that demonstrate that you are quantitatively doing it all better than your peers and get at least 500 hours flying, or at least 50 hours Pilot in Command (PIC), then you volunteer.

This includes Guard and Reserve Aviators. Response by CW5 Private RallyPoint Member made Jul 13 at 2022 1:44 PM 2022-07-13T13:44:26-04:00 2022-07-13T13:44:26-04:00 2022-06-24T15:27:03-04:00
