Air Force Jobs - More Information?

[Ted]

I would like to know if anyone knows from experience or of any type of information for some of these jobs.

Aircraft Loadmaster (1A231)
Combat Control (1C231)
Tactical Air Command and Control (1C431)
Pararescue (1T231)
Survival, evasion, resist., escape trainer (1T031)
Airborne Linguist (1A831)
In-Flight Refueling (1A031)

Any information of any of these jobs would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance!

Notice how none of these Air Force types are rushing to tell you about job selection etc?

Hmmm.

Look into the Army.

Its awesome that you really want to pick one of those. I initially wanted to do Airborne Linguist or TACP (tactical air control party 1C431) but didn't make the vision requirements. Now I'm waiting to see if I get either intel or SERE (1T031). As a side note, Combat control, TACP, and Pararescue are male only fields.

Here's the info.

Haha, wow, I know 3 people that have the jobs you listed. TAC/C, SERE Trainer, and In-Flight Refueling. Uh, TAC/C is not the most exciting job, but you get to travel the world. SERE Trainer will give you skills in survival outdoors as well as Resistance and Fighting moves, maybe even the 5FDP (5 Finger Death Punch). I'd go SERE if you like the outdoors and camping. Last, but not least is IFR. Depends on what you want to do as an IFR Pilot or whatever you want to be, it's a fun job.

This might not have been what you were looking for, but it's a rough example of 3 careers. I hope you find the one you would like to join or research, best of luck!
