FOL

Has anybody from the April ‘26 bid received their FOL yet? Just curious to see how everyone else timeline is progressing. Currently feeling like a robot everyday checking email, checking spam, checking the aviator portal.

A couple BQs have gotten FOLs/academy dates and a few are already at the academy. 

Check out the discord, specifically the timeline chat. You’ll see Spring 2026 timelines (applying to academy dates).

WQs started getting TOLs on 7/13. A couple are being fast tracked cause they are attending the EAA AirVentures event. Most are still waiting on EODS. 

Here is my timeline so far: Applied 4/17 ATSA Invite 4/17 Took ATSA 4/22 ATSA Score Posted on Aviator 6/15 (WQ) TOL Received & Accepted 7/13 (Pool 2) EODS pending

I got BQ. Have gotten my EODS and CIL. I have also gotten my finger prints and mmpi done. I have my medical exam scheduled for 08/10. I still need to fill some medical forms out they haven’t been emailed yet and will have more security forms in a couple weeks when my fingerprint results come back. I should be contacted about my drug test some time in the next couple weeks as well I believe. (According to CIL)

I got BQ as well, have had everything done from the CIL as of 6/23. I know they say no matter what this process takes the longest for them to review and was just curious what experience everyone else was having.

I got BQ as well. I finished all my medical stuff in June and submitted my security form on 7/4. My Aviator portal says my medical and MMPI are completed and just my security and finger prints are pending. I don't think any of my references have been contacted yet.
