I am applying for OCC and I am 28 y/o. My OSO said that they could put in an age waiver for me for ground but not for air. OSO said that they asked the major and they said that they are not giving out age waivers for air right now. I don't remember my ASTB score but it was either 5/6 or 6/6, and I have a 290 PFT. I have taken the flight physical (although it is expired now) and I got a waiver for PRK as well. I know that I can try and fight for an air slot at TBS but from what I understand air slots are not as common as they used to be. Is there a way to pick up an air slot either at OCS or after I am commissioned but before I report to TBS. I do want to be a Marine first so I will be happy with a ground contract but I would like to fly. Are there any other ways to secure an air contract? Can I apply for an air slot after I finish my primary MOS if I end up going ground at TBS?
Thanks
