Sometimes, I'm kind of a "tough love" kind of guy. If "culture differences" is your biggest concern, maybe you should look at career opportunities outside of the military. At our baselines, we all pretty much come down the same way...Good Afternoon Forum,
I have a couple questions regarding the culture differences between being an Air Force and Navy pilot... Whatever you have to offer is extremely helpful. Thank you in advance!
Different kind of "katana" though...
Did you get accepted into an OCS program already?
why thoseems the most realistic out of my options.
I considered all my options at this point, and while Air National Guard is tempting as well...I'm throwing packages everywhere, but I am not picky, I want to stress that. In this day and age, you can't be. So Army seems a tempting offer, even if the 10 year ADSO is a scary thought.why tho
Chances are that if you fly army helicopters you’ll end up doing deck landings on a navy ship someday.I considered all my options at this point, and while Air National Guard is tempting as well...I'm throwing packages everywhere, but I am not picky, I want to stress that.

Was wondering how long it would take for the ol' "if you care about x, then you don't belong in my Navy" bullshit.Sometimes, I'm kind of a "tough love" kind of guy.

If you have a four-year degree and a private pilot certificate and are otherwise healthy and qualified, you would be crazy not to go to the Air Guard or Reserve as your first choice....Swanee, I am really looking at bogidope, to be honest that's my first choice...luckily I know an Air Guard squadron pilot and there's a base nearby. Will keep in touch with him too.
When I applied in 2010 it was identical to the Navy process.Do people still compete for pilot slots at Air Force OTS? That was a big drawback to regular Air Force to me.
A straight up Flight contract was one of my big reasons for going Navy back in 2009. If I had to do it today, go Coast Guard.
