Hey all! I posted this question on studentpilot.net, but was told I might get a better answer if I came over here. I'm leaving for OCS in January. After graduation, what's the average wait right now to begin API? I've heard anything from 1 week to a year. And then, after API, do we start flying right away or is there another wait? I was told prior flight experience doesn't get you in any faster. Is this true? Messages posted on the studentpilot.net forum indicated prior training may get you started earlier (USAF) because you are not held up finishing IFT as long (if you're going USAF of course, but was wondering if the process is similar in the Navy).
