Alright guys,

I am thinking about joining either the ANG or AF Reserve. Currently, I'm a captain for an airline but furloughs are right around the corner and I would like to have a fall back option. I'm not seeking a pilot slot but rather something I could use should the big "F" ever happen.
I'm thinking maybe ATC, MX, or maybe a boom operator just to stay in the air. What do you guy's think? What are the +/-'s of both ANG and AFR? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!
