Under the Hiring Information tab on pilot credentials what is everyone doing for their three references? Should you just pick three people out of your letters of recommendations? Do they want them to be pilots as well or can they just be personal and/or professional references?

I interviewed 21 July, refs called a week later, cjo on 6 August. Class date 14 October. That being said, everyone's experience seems to be different. Folks that interviewed a week before me, got cjo same day as me. Good luck all, GREAT experience!!

For those that have had references called did they call people from your letters or recommendation, from the 3 references that the Pilot Credentials website asks for, or both?
I have about 7 letters of rec from guys I have flown with, but have thought about putting a non-flying reference down for one of my 3 references that pilot credentials asks for in the Hiring Information section.

What did military guys do for the "PRIA Records Request and Reference Information" forms? It requests current flying supervisor for each duty station along with the record keeper. I don't know about everyone else, but my HARM records, training folders, and FEF were all given to me when I separated from the AF. I assume AFPC may have a copy? I don't even know where to begin to try and get contact information for that. Thoughts...

No such thing as pria for the military. The only one you should have to fill out is if you worked at an airline post mil

Call Ronna or one of the other people in the PD. They are seriously there to help you through the process.
I think they still had us put the name of people that they can get in touch with that can vouch for you who supervised you in the squadron. The guy who called my references used that form.
Obviously, in the majority of those places, there won't be anyone still there who knew you, so if you have personal numbers of guys who were your supervisor in some form or fashion, put that down.
