droz88 Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 I have some questions about the coast guard that hopefully can be answered here. Particularly, I was interested in the coast guard reserves helicopter pilots. How does one get a position like this? From my understanding you are able to have a full time civilian job while flying sparringly for the guard. This sounds ideal for my situation which is why i'd like more information. If I'm wrong on this understanding please correct me. Thank you, -Droz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uberchris Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 i am active duty on the enlisted side, and i HIGHLY doubt that flying helicopters in the uscg is a part time job. as a matter of fact i am 99% positive that our pilots are all active duty LTJG, LT, or LTCMD's. I could be wrong but im pretty sure that im not and that reserve officers pretty much just push paper behind desks. Talk to a recruiter for specifics.800-go-coastguard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zVo Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 uberchris, I can back you up that there's no such thing as Coast Guard Reserve aviation officers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Pig Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Nothing related to aviation is available in the USCGR. When I got out of the Marines I looked into the CGR specifically for aviation hoping to get a pilot slot. Nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droz88 Posted December 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 My mistake guys, What I was thinking about was the Air National Guard and not the Coast Guard. I have started a new thread about that so perhaps a moderator could delete this thread? Thanks for clearing that up though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
