Hello everyone,
I am currently 20 years old going to MTSU in Tennessee this fall for a bachelor's degree as a professional pilot. It is my dream to be a pilot in the military. I have about 35 hours in a C172. I am also a 15 Tango UH-60 Blackhawk Helicopter Repairer in the Army National Guard. I am here today to ask for opinions on which is the best path for me to aim for to be a military pilot. I know all about each branches way to be a pilot by doing tons of research and talking to pilots of each branch. Hopefully, some people here will give me a little more insight as to which is best suited for me. I am leaning more towards fixed-wing as it translates well towards the civilian side but I wouldn't mind rotor-wing if I end up with them. I have a few connections in all branches like CW5s for the Army, a few Colonels in the AF, and a rear admiral in the Navy. Each of them are trying to pull me towards their branch to fly but I said we will have to wait and see! Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
