INDEX CODE: 100.07
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His elimination from the Fixed-Wing Qualification Training Course (F-V5A-Q)
be removed from his records.
_________________________________________________________________
RESUME OF CASE:
On 21 Mar 00, the Board considered and denied a similar appeal by the
applicant. A summary of the evidence considered by the Board and the
rationale for its decision is set forth in the Record of Proceedings, which
is attached at Exhibit E.
The applicant provided additional new evidence for possible reconsideration
of his application. The new evidence is comprised of letters of support
from his senator and prominent military officials (Exhibit F).
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant’s Total Federal Commissioned Service Date (TFCSD) is 15 May
83. A Flying Evaluation Board (FEB) convened at Vance AFB on 20 Oct 92 for
the purpose of developing and considering evidence concerning the
applicant’s professional qualifications as a trainee and to make
recommendations regarding his future continuation in the Fixed Wing
Qualification Training Program. A legal review of the FEB’s proceedings
found it legally sufficient to support the board’s recommendations to
disenroll the applicant from training and to revoke his aeronautical
rating. On 18 Nov 92, the 71st Flying Training Wing (FTW) commander
concurred with the FEB’s findings and recommendations.
The applicant’s Education/Training Report, AF Form 475, rendered for the
period 7 Sep 91 through 8 Mar 93, reveals that he was eliminated from the
Fixed Wing Qualification Training for flying deficiencies.
The applicant was relieved from assignment with the 8165th Student Flight
and honorably discharged in the grade of captain from the GA ANG and as a
Reserve of the Air Force, effective 25 Mar 93. He was assigned to the
Nonobligated Nonparticipating Ready Personnel Section (NNRPS) until 1 Aug
98. On 1 Aug 98, he was reassigned from NNRPS to the Inactive Status List
Reserve Section (ISLRS). He was relieved from ISLRS and honorably
discharged from all appointments in the United States Air Force, effective
1 Mar 99.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Pursuant to the Board’s request, the Personnel Operations Branch, ANG/DPFO,
reviewed the additional information submitted and indicated that they are
unable to administratively correct the applicant’s military records. DPFO
stated that the ANG/DPPU advisory opinion, dated 31 Aug 99, recommending
denial of the requested relief remains the same. However, DPFO notified
the Headquarters Alabama Air National Guard (HQ AL ANG) to initiate a
waiver for reinstatement into the Fixed-Wing Qualification Course (Exhibit
G).
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to applicant on 15 August
2000 for review and response. As of this date, no response has been
received by this office (Exhibit H).
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
After again reviewing the evidence provided, the Board majority is of the
opinion that a revision in our earlier findings is warranted. It appears
that Alabama ANG is extremely desirous of accessing the applicant as a
member of their organization. The applicant has produced a number of
supportive statements from high-level ANG and Air Force officers who
support his request. In view of this fact and the ANG admission that the
applicant was not qualified to enter the FWQ training program at the time
he attended in 1992; and, because we are aware that the applicant’s
elimination is a disqualifying factor which is not waivable for reentry
into flying training, the Board majority believes favorable consideration
of the applicant’s request would be appropriate. Accordingly, his records
should be corrected in the following manner.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force relating
to APPLICANT be corrected to show that all documents and references to his
elimination from the Fixed Wing Qualification Training Course (F-V5A-Q) in
November 1992, be removed from his records and sequestered.

Based on a review of the facts, we agree she should have met an FEB after her elimination from FWQ training as an FEB would be the only correct action to evaluate retention in (or removal from) training, and qualification for continued aviation service.

His records be corrected to reflect he was awarded the wings and rating as a fixed wing pilot. Apparently, and unknown to the applicant, the Air National Guard (ANG) decided not to follow the Air Force Predator entry requirements as outlined in AFI 11-402, Aviation and Parachutist Service Aeronautical Ratings and Aviation Badges, instead they decided he could not enter Predator training without first completing a fixed wing aviation training program; FWQ.

Any and or all ANG and Army records damaged by the Revocation of Flying Order action be corrected. During this time, he received a negative OPR from his AFR unit.
