Recalling Active Duty Air Force Pilots
Sounds like the pilot shortage is causing the USAF to lose their proverbial minds. Getting recalled for 3 years could put a dent in some people's plans.....

Can you spell USERRA?
My understanding is if you get recalled for less than 5 years your employer is required to reinstate you to your previous position as if you never left (your old seniority number and date of hire longevity).
Dent? That might be a big BONUS to a lot of folks!*?

"Trump's order removes those caps by expanding a state of national emergency declared by President George W. Bush after 9/11..."
If this is true, most likely recalled under "contingency" orders and the time would EXEMPT from the 5 year limit!!

Getting recalled would mean a big pay cut.

Everyone relax. It gives authority for voluntary recalls, just like eight years ago...except last time, I believe the AF self-capped at 550, and it was mostly flying positions (UPT, and I believe airlift, too). Pretty sure these are for rated-staff ONLY.
Good luck getting takers on that....
