Our "List"

Once again, the Air Force surprises me...

Usually when a drop comes around, the class will get a list of their planes with locations that are available to them for that drop. Well, they decided not to do that this time. They instead gave us a list of every possible plane with every possible location to place in order of what we would like. That's 42 choices to rank. Most of those choices are irrelevant. The instructors already know what planes are coming down to us, so I don't really understand why we are doing it this way. To me, it just seems like a way for people to get their hopes up for something that they don't even have a chance to get.

So, instead of writing out the entire list, I will just give you our top choices (again, we don't even know if these locations are available, but this is what we want):

1. C-17 Dover (Delaware)
2. C-17 Charleston (S Carolina)
3. C-17 McGuire (New Jersey)
4. C-17 Travis (California)
5. KC-10 Travis
FAIP (First Assignment Instructor Pilot) is number 8 & 9. If we get one of those, we would stay here in Del Rio for 3 more years.

I will update this if anything changes (our order, if we find out what is available, etc). Our drop is next Friday, so 8 days from today. Please keep us in your prayers!
