While rushing is not required, we highly encourage all applicants to visit the squadron. This allows us to have the opportunity to get to know you above and beyond what is written on paper. Please contact Major Sjoblom by email to coordinate. At the 109th AS we are not simply hiring C130 Co-Pilots, we are hiring future Aircraft Commanders and Instructor/Evaluator Pilots. We need candidates that will successfully complete UPT and C130J initial training then return to the squadron with the dedication and drive to be a strong asset to our squadron. Additionally, applicants will be flying, working, socializing and deploying for multiple months at a time with the squadron for the next 10-20+ years. Because of that, all interactions with the squadron are fair game for the application process. We simply want to get to know who you are. Moral of the story, just be yourself!

As of 28 MAY, the 109th is planning to have a scheduled squadron visit during our August drill. Tentatively scheduled for 2 AUG in the afternoon. More details to follow, please check back for more information. Additional inquiries, please reach out to john.sjoblom@us.af.mil for details.

UPDATE: As of 16 JUL, the 109th will be hosting an informal meet and greet on Saturday, 2 AUG at 1500. It's an opportunity to get a tour of operations, meet squadron members, ask questions, and get to know the 109th! Please reach out to john.sjoblom@us.af.mil to RSVP and if applicable, we'll make sure you have access to the base. See you on Saturday!
