There's no way to know for sure. Do a Search and you'll learn a lot.

BTW, the pounding you're about to get is going to be so bad that Al Gore is going to wish he never created the internet.

No I don't think your chances are greater.

Eagles1 - pay close attention to the replies you are about to get. After you have read them all, continue to do your best in school (especially math, science and oh yeah, english), and learn everything you can about being an officer and aviator in the military. Then . . . . . we can discuss the possibility of you being a "pilot." (Notice I didn't say fighter pilot???) Hang in there !!!

My TI-89 says the approximate chance of getting jets is 94.48203%, providing key factors are met, such as getting a commission, completing API and primary, then selecting jets. Sticky this, because it is entirely accurate, and I swear I didn't make up and/or exaggerate the number at all.

Schnugg, don't post jackass replies like that unless you read his post entirely.

He asked what % get FIGHTER jets, not what % get jets.

Geeze man

Schnugg,

That's awesome. BTW, have you ever kept a running tally on how many times you have had to use that picture?

By my calculations, you'll probably be better off selecting UAVs. They will be all the rage by the time you get to flight school.

Question is, how many A time UAV hours do you need to get on with FedEx?

The real question is what % of pilots at Fed Ex actually know what the fruck you mean when you say A time.

UAV drivers will be so good, they'll only need 42 hours to get on with FedEx...
