I got my commission in May (Navy) and I am heading to P-cola for API this fall. At what point in the aviation pipeline is a good point to apply for DCA for the CG? I saw that the CG had a 500 hour minimum time and I already have 350+ hours as a civilian. I also know that everything hinges on whether I get helos or not which is also a concern. Is DCA an option right now or is this something I should look at a few years from now.
