IFS in PCOLA
- Thread starter bubba716
- Start date
There are people (SNAs and SNFOs) who have done IFS in both locations. I'm hearing from people at TBS now that it's pretty much the same-some get to stay in lovely Quan-TEE-co while others come down here right away. Definitely something that your company will have to answer for you.
I was a December grad and I made it known about six months in advance that I wanted to start TBS in January. It worked out for me, so as soon as you finish OCS start talking to your OSO. With you being PLC it may not happen but if your OSO knows your wishes you stand a better chance of getting what you want.

For Fox company, they did not let anyone do IFS outside of Quantico/Manassas. Many tried, all were rejected. I think it depends on your company as well as the state of things in Pensacola. That aside, the programs up in VA are pretty solid, and its only 1-2 months.
[edit] They (the powers that be) told us initially that there would be a limited number of IFS slots in P'Cola. This wound up being false, and we all went to either Quantico, Manassas Aviation, or Dulles Aviation. The latter two are about 40 minutes from Quantico... a pain in the ass, but one made slightly better by carpooling.

im about to go to college and go through NROTC and im wondering is there anything that help me into becomming a Naval Aviator.
I did IFS before I picked up with Alpha. The state of affairs now is that only a few guys are doing IFS in the Quantico area. A majority are doing it in Pcola, a few others are doing it in Atlanta and some in Ohio. Its fair to say that it will change with every company, and as scotty said, it all depends on how things are down in Pcola and here in Quantico. Like everything around Camp Barrett, you probably wont know until a few weeks before its going to happen.
