bragging rights!

[coolkites]

those are not test required (by my knowledge) for anything CAP related but I saw somebody else list there ESF #9 and figured that I might as well list the ones I have passed. I repeat these are not required for anything CAP I tock them because I was bored and felt like it.

I Listed *WS because that is something I am hoping to start eventually I shouldn't have listed that I guess sorry

You must be talking about SWR-TX-091.  Never fear...SWR-TX-026 is taking steps to follow in your footsteps.

Hmm do I sense a rivalry here. (rivalry is good it keeps everyone working harder)

No, but he does need to make sure that he can BRIDGE the WATERS between his and other units.

Got it. He also didn't say which nation, so there's that as well...

Ya I'm doing a ridiculous amount of training
have been on several SAREXES including one that turned into a real mission. The Becker picked up a hit while we where returning the 182 to its correct base

1. Last I checked you can only train in 3 specialties at one time.
2. I now am GTM3 and UDF qualfied!

[SarDragon]

The training in only three specialties ended when paper 101Ts went away, a bunch of years ago. Currently there is no limitation, and until they fixed the software, having a signoff for a common task would turn you on as a trainee in anything that required that task (BCUT comes to mind).

[BTCS1*]

I did not know that, thanks for the info! Now which other specialties to train in... Hmmmm...

No, it doesn't.  You still need commander approval to be listed as a trainee in each specialty. 

The system WILL carry over individual task sign-offs for all specialties that share that common task.  But it doesn't automatically make you a trainee for that specialty.

[SarDragon]

Yeah, I thought about that after I posted it, and then didn't feel like changing it.

When the system first came online, it actually worked that way, but when they added the commander's validation after each qual segment (Pre req, and Fam & Prep), it went away.

Our squad has NEVER gone on a search and rescue. all the ones our wing gets (which is rarely) are down south (i'm in very north end). so even if we were asked to come down it'd be hard.  So i have no real experinces under my belt. maybe some day

I for one hope that you never have the opportunity to have to deploy what you've learned.  Kind of like hoping someone will get in a car accident so you can save their life...good job though on getting your training going!

[BTCS1*]

Personaly, I always (in the back of my head) hope for a non-distress ELT to go off. Then again, its distress untill you find it and see its non-distress...

KY-216 has bragging rights for FASTEST FIND OF AN ELT if ANYONE has beat our recently set record of 15 MINUTES tell me and by the way we have the bragging rights for ever on  finding an ELT in 15 minutes in one of the best and most secret and crowed places on an airfield.....Ft. Campbell and it was the 19th ASOS (160th for the ones familiar with them)  and anyone who knows them knows what its like there. but can't say anymore bout them like i said there very protective bout what people that's been there say sorry

[a2capt]

The speed to find an ELT is hardly debatable, considering there are so many variables involved. The call, the launch,  getting on scene, etc.

IE, in most scenarios it takes 15 minutes just for the WMAO to record the call from AFRCC and call the first or second IC.

Oh, so you're on "scene" already, thats like getting a first class seat on The Amazing Race, of course you're going to get there "in record time". Normally, it even takes about 15 minutes to get from a front gate to a flight line on a military base, maybe even 15 minutes from the security check at the flight line entrance.

So... ;-)
