Now now hold on, I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with helos or props. I'm just stating that jets are choice number 1 for me. Flying is what I want to do and not being selected for jets isn't going to push me away.
But thanks for the info guys
What exactly are the consequences, just kinda curious
The point is you don't even understand how big of a douchebag you are being, and that makes you an even bigger douchebag.
What you essentially are saying is that before you even GET to be part of the club, you are most likely not going to want to be where you end up (as jet guys are a minority in selection and you're likely to be somewhere else).
You are basically discrediting EVERYONE except an extremely small community for reasons you couldn't possibly speak intelligently on. You want jets. Why? I'm a fleet Naval Aviator and I couldn't even tell you what it's like to fly a jet or a P-3, but I can tell you that you don't know dick about flying or what you like about the F/A-18 etc.
Do you get airsick? Do you like lengthy briefs, filing flight plans and flying IFR all the time? Do you like flying FORM all the time and the lengthy briefing that takes? Do you like being single pilot? Do you like not having even an NFO much less a crew? Do you like bombing along at 40K feet and 600kts? Do you like skimming over the treetops at 200ft and 100kts?
You don't know anything about any of the above, and I don't know about some of it.... but what I do know is that you are full of shit. If you had asked the question "What can I do to improve my chances at getting jets in primary?" that question would have been acceptable, albeit trite and probably negative rep and flame-inducing.
But to ask the question you did "Chances are, I won't get jets and I want jets, so what are the odds I can bail on my community and the mere mortals who reside in it and join the awesome jet community because anything less just isn't good enough?". To shorten your question it was "Fuck the word "service". What can the Navy do for ME?"
Bottom line is yes, there is a possibility to transition. It is difficult, competitive and career suicide. Worse, if you apply and DON'T make it, you are now dead to the community which you have to remain a part of, and your quality of life probably won't be the same after that...
And no, a year or two of "experience" puts you still in your first fleet squadron, and if you were to try and transition then..... you are either really stupid or have some big fucking balls. Go tell your skipper as a JG/new LT in your first squadron you want to go fly jets and hand him your package to sign. See how loud he laughs, how far his boot gets up your ass and how miserable JOPA will make your life. You have a LOT to learn.
