Specific eligibility requirements are described for each designator and aviation community.

Applicants currently under the MSR incurred upon commissioning must have an MSR end date prior to 30 October 2019. (3) AvB/ACCP. Aviation officers with obligated service as a result of AvB/ACCP are eligible to apply if the officer will be within 12 months of completing AvB/ACCP obligation or department head tour at the time the board convenes. Redesignation immediately following a department head tour may result in cancellation of AvB, which will be adjudicated by Aviation Officer Assignments (PERS-43). (4) Failure of Selection (FOS). AC officers in a 2xFOS status for promotion to LCDR are eligible to apply for FTS regardless of MSR and AvB/ACCP contract term, a waiver request is not required. (5) YG.
