Looking for brief on flight school

Hey everyone,
I've been asked to speak to a JROTC unit to talk about aviation. Does anyone have a brief on what the flight school pipeline looks like now? (API for X weeks, Primary for X months, etc.)

Flight school has changed a lot since I went through, so all my info is way dated.

If one of the folks down in P'cola has an official brief, that will work great.

Thanks!

I have a Power Point that I gave to U-Texas NROTC about 3 years ago, but it is on my home computer. When do you need it by?

Got this off of MarineGouge. The only thing that has changed on this flow-chart is that tilt-rotor selectee's go to South Whiting first for intermediate, and then Corpus to finish in the TC-12. The word is that the helo portion will be phased out all together and Tilt-rotor guys will go straight to Corpus for Advanced. PM me if you need any specific Tilt-rotor pipeline info prior to FRS.

And Hornet guys tend to go to Miramar, Ca.. not "Lemore". (It's spelled Lemoore anyways). To clarify: all -18 WSO's go to Miramar while there are a few pilots that go to Lemoore and Va Beach, most end up in Miramar as well.

I need it in about 3 weeks. The CNATRA link has got the info, but I was hoping for a PPT with pictures of the aircraft from each stage.
I can speak off the top of my head on the career path for an NA and NFO, but flight school has changed a bunch... By the way, who the hell invited the Air Force to command a Navy squadron????
Thanks for the info thus far!!

It's not as bad as you think. In dealing w/ a bunch of AF VT IPs/IUTs, including the O-5s, they're very happy to be in a Navy environment and don't play the standard AF reindeer games.

Second that. A lot of them said they chose to do the Navy joint gig to be in our environment for flight school vs. someplace like Vance. VT-3 didn't seem top be any better or worse than any other VT.
