bLACksUn1015 Posted December 26, 2017 Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 I am currently a DEP 09S, shipping out in Feb. and beginning OCS in May of 18. Obviously my contract is already signed and I am certainly not guaranteed branching Aviation. However, I am doing everything I can on my end to put the odds in my favor. I have a 3.98 GPA from college, 93 on my ASVAB, 64 on my SIFT, 275 APFT which will be 300 by ship out, and a Rucker approved Flight Physical. My understanding is that during my 3rd week of OCS I will need to fill out a 4187, have two Aviation specific LORs, SIFT scores, Flight phys, and a letter of intent for Aviation since Aviation is seperate from the OML in OCS. My question is in regards to the Aviation LORs. I live in Cincinnati and was wondering if anyone on here is a CO pilot in my area that I could sit down with maybe over coffee in order to obtain a LOR. Feel free to email me at patrick.dewhurst@gbs.edu. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mudkow60 Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 LOR's usually mean more coming from people that you have worked with and/or know. Tell them what you need, what you need it for, and what you would like the LOR to say (generally). Sometimes, writing it helps. My 2 cents from having asked for many and written a few in my time...

zaurus Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 Have you thought of flying for another military service? Why Army aviation vs the others? And why not the WOFT program in which flight school is guaranteed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
