SPOT ON...

You guys are going to love this! Here in SUPT land it was just announced that starting in fiscal year '09 (starts October 1st), the USAF will send TRIPLE DIGIT SUPT grads to UAVs. I kid you not.

Here at Columbus we were told that we will start the ball rolling by assigning 1 T-38 grad and 1 T-1 grad to UAVs starting with class 09-01 (they graduate in early October). I'm guessing the same thing will happen at Vance and Laughlin. I have not heard how many T-38 grads from Sheppard will be UAV'd. Anyone else know?

I'm telling you greenshoes, if you go active duty USAF you are foolish. We have 2 guard kids right now here at Columbus in T-38 training. They will finish SUPT, go to IFF, off to F-16 training, back to their guard unit two years full-time, then they will be part-timers. Yes, their squadron may be turned into a UAV squadron someday but highly unlikely unless there is another DoD BRAC.
