tparrotte Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 I've been waiting literally months for my flight physical approval from Ft. Rucker. I do not know if it never came in or what because my recruiter keeps giving me the run around and is lazy. My question is does anyone know a number I can call myself to find out if it was approved so I can tell my dumb ass recruiter to get a board meeting for me. Either a number at Ft. Rucker if possible to call or by some slim chance somebody knows who I am supposed to call at Ft. Drumm. (Thats where I took the physical at). I hate having to rely on a recruiter its what slows this hole process to a crawl. Thanks. Quote
Mymm Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 I'll get you the number for the medical clinic here at Rucker and PM it to you. Quote
Helo_Rookie Posted December 6, 2008 Posted December 6, 2008 (edited) I'll get you the number for the medical clinic here at Rucker and PM it to you. Could you PM that number to me as well, I'm in the same boat down the road in Maryland. Thanks Edited December 6, 2008 by Helo_Rookie Quote
sactown77 Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 It took me a month and a half to get the results, so dont be too discouraged. btw i passed. Quote
tparrotte Posted December 9, 2008 Author Posted December 9, 2008 (edited) My flight physical is missing. The doctor that had done it was transferred to another unit and I have no idea how to contact him. (which is now deactivated) He had even given me his cell number to call him and make sure he had sent it, which I did and he said it had been sent. I've been waiting for it for a while. I never heard anything from my recruiter so I figured it out for myself and Ft. Drum and Ft. Rucker have no flight physical on record for me what so ever. So now I am pretty screwed since I am off to Guam here soon. This is a huge setback, I don't think I will be able to finish my packet until at best summer. I am not happy.

1badz32 Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 I've been through MEPS, but have yet to take the flight physical. MEPS seemed pretty detailed, what happens in the flight physical that isnt already done in MEPS?? Quote
tparrotte Posted December 14, 2008 Author Posted December 14, 2008 Not much at all. It was basically a simple physical, and they checked if my ears popped. It all depends on what kind of doctor you get as well. Of course my flight physical disappeared so I have no idea if that is how a real flight physical goes or if he screwed up and that's why it got lost. Quote
1badz32 Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 oh, ok. Thanks man.I wish i had some adivse to offer, I hope you can get it all sorted out. good luck. Quote
tparrotte Posted December 16, 2008 Author Posted December 16, 2008 I got all my flight packet stuff from my recruiter. He is a cool guy, he feels so bad for not getting my stuff don and had no problem handing over all my stuff. I actually have a copy of my flight physical in my packet, but nobody has it on record. Anyway I leave for Guam January 15th, and I called the recruiters there and they said they can go flight physical and boards. So I am still shooting to get into the March selection. Quote
