Air Force Kid in a Navy Forum... Death Wish?
Hello everyone,
I'm currently in AFROTC (I know, that's probably a sin on here). Anyway, I'm not exactly sure how getting a pilot slot in NROTC works, exactly, but I know the process of obtaining a slot in AFROTC fairly well. My question is, do you think it's worth the investment (time/money) to get a private pilot certificate and work on getting 100+ hours to try to give me the upper edge in getting the pilot slot about which I have dreamed? In the total score that the Air Force uses to decide who gets slots, number of flying hours counts toward a small number of points. It's not a lot, but it's still something. Personally, I think it's worth it because I want every advantage I can get. But what do you think?
Thanks for your time!
