"You feel good about the product you put out there to the Air Force. Down the road, you could be next to them in a deployed situation," he said. "The only big downfall is that they (Airmen) ship out; however, within the next week you get 50 to 60 new trainees," he said with a smile. Instructing trainees is not the only job of a MTI. They are judges at Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps' drill competitions, participate in change of command ceremonies, and serve at other official functions throughout the Air Force. "MTIs are the experts for drill and ceremonies," he said. "We might get called to go on a TDY (temporary duty) to participate in a change of command ceremony. MTIs are always called for those events; we do it on a regular basis." Another benefit of becoming a MTI is the acquired skill sets can carry over and strengthen their civilian and military résumés when they finish their tour, said Begley, One of our members Tech. Sgt. Ricardo Chavez, was selected as an Air Force 12 Outstanding Airman in 2011. "Experience as an MTI gives a NCO experience as a supervisor in the Air Force, and it is a career enhancer," she emphasized.

It demands preparation, tenacity, time-management skills and extreme self-discipline," Begley said. One misconception about being a MTI is the long hours they put into training a flight. "It's all about time management," Recoder said. "It's what you make it. The first year is learning time management, effective teaching, mentoring younger instructors, making appointments for trainees, counseling them, advising them on finances and making sure they are meeting fitness requirements." Recorder also pointed out he still has time to help coach his daughter's volleyball team. Instructors generally work eight to 10 hours per day on a unit training assembly weekend, Begley said. "Being an MTI puts you on top of everything. You get to mold the future of the Air Force," said Tech Sgt. Michael Hernandez, an ART MTI. The ART MTI fulfills duties and responsibilities during the workweek in ART status and does not work with the trainees. However, during the Unit Training Assembly and annual tour, the ART MTIs are working with trainees.
