We were told this week the slow down was temporary to catch up training pipeline and that they needed all available IPs on the line this summer. We just got training dates today. 88s all start 6th, high ssn bids to 73s and ERs same. Mid range ssn 3-4 weeks, some low ssn 73s as late as 9 aug. With smaller classes I wouldn't expect as much time off when they ramp up again in the late summer/fall. That is what they said the plan is. Badgers spreadsheet is the best gouge out there on dates/numbers.

I believe you posted this earlier but just seeing if anything changed or more clarification was made. No OTS 7/6, some in 7/20? Similar in August probably? Thanks!

Yes to all. Badgers #s appear to mirror what we were told. If that is true we won't get any other "rumors" to spread to the bros until the mid July class.

If you were a late May CJO it looks like September possibly October class? Badger thank you for the spreadsheet. Getting anxious to get on property.

How does Badger get the projected class sizes? Just curious. Looks like a big slowdown. And it's not a lot of fun hearing crickets since CJO! Looks like I need to put my apps out to McDonalds in the mean time!

Tell me about it. I will be in grace month for recurrent training in August. So do I go to training just to leave in a month or take a 2-4 week hiatus? AK said August when given CJO but its looking like it will be a later class.

Excited to start.

All of the numbers are based on inputs from guys on the forums. The guys that get the call to start, the guys in class and the guys that post the CJO info. The more people we encourage to join the conversation the better the data will be. Talk it up.

Exactly. I don't have a crystal ball or a direct line to AF or AK, nor am I clairvoyant, else I would have won the lottery 6-9 times already and be living on easy street.

Several folks got called from the 16 Apr CJOs...about 5. The rest will probably be in the 3 August or 17 August.
