How far out from retiring did you apply?

bkC130, congratulations and well-done! That is what I call a stellar resume. I wouldn't be surprised if you get multiple offers from other places as well. Awesome!

My favorite part is the zero hours in 24 months as I am in a similar situation but starting to build my time back up....

Apps live about 12 months from avail date....which is another 2 months before official mil retirement due to terminal leave. Always said I'd take the Summer off in retirement transition year....but then youth sports fees and mortgages get in the way right?!

AA CJO
1675 TT, most of it alone and unafraid.
Mil IP time, CFI and CFII (though never used it, except on the application).
Went to commuinty college, then a state school, and grad school was a different state school.
Got lucky I guess and got into test pilot school, I guess they overlooked the community college thing. Happy and honored to have the job. Starting at the bottom and have a ton to learn and looking forward to it. How was that for on track and jabbing at the potential troll?

Single seat, almost all pic time. I don't think I makes it better but some folks care about pic time.

Yeah, I'm sure he is just being modest. A TPS grad has to have an engineering and/or hard science/math degree. They are usually pretty smart people. Most likely a fighter guy with those low hours. Plus AAL has that box you get to check if you flew fighters. Congrats on the CJO!

But do they have to put a cover sheet on their TPS reports?

Yep, and put them in a blue folder; the joke never got old.
