So I'm a junior at a collegiate aviation college with a 3.5 GPA in aviation studies. Have my CFI and ME rating with about 250 hours. I've been thinking about joining the military as a pilot for a while now, I've looked into ANG, Air Force and the Navy. I'm leaning towards the Navy because 1. They seam to have the best base locations. 2. They don't assign any RPA's. 3. I really like the history and culture of the Navy. 4. They have a shorter time commitment than the Air Force. 5. They fly more impressive aircraft than the AF. A couple questions I have are, do Navy pilots get stuck at a desk after their first couple years of flying? Based on the information above, what are my chances of getting selected for OCS? And could somebody give me a rundown a Navy pilot's training/career timeline? Any added info or advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
