Alternate Route Book

The Alternate Route of joining the Air National Guard or Air Force Reserve allows candidates to select from a wide range of military aircraft based at various locations across the country. Applicants research aircraft, base locations, and missions and apply only to units they are interested in. The applicant must be hired by a unit before they incur any military commitment.

Author Jeffery Van Orsow’s book called Alternate Route: The Ultimate Guide to Becoming a Pilot in the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve features a step-by-step guide for applying and getting hired to the Air National Guard or Air Force Reserve, as well as critical information about the process and what applicants can expect.

Cockpit to Cockpit endorses this book wholeheartedly for anyone looking to get hired as a ANG/AFRC pilot!
