How is the Air Force? - Big Red - 07-27-2010
Im still in high school and im getting a little interested in joining the air force. I've always have had a big interest in science and space and I think thats where the air force would combine the two. I'm not sure if I ever would want to fly a combat plane, but im not completely against it because I once was interested in being a commercial airline pilot, a year ago. I thing it would really cool to fly those spy planes remotely. Im not looking to be in direct combat with any enemies, example-bullets whizzing by my head.
Anyways, any feedback from anyone thats in or once was in the airforce, would be appreciated. How's the basic training? Any college aid funds? Would it help with any future careers such as in NASA or being a commercial airline pilot?
Thanks!........Peace.

be careful when you go to the recruiter. dont tell them you have smmoked pot or anything, or even drank for that matter. your juveniles records are sealed. they may act like they can find out all this shit out about you, but they cant. they only know as much as you tell them. dont even bother telling them a sprain injuries or trips to the ER. you will save youreslf alot of paperwork. yes and no to questions and dont divulge anymore.

ya the introductory part and familiarization course. they just relocated the nav school and apparently changed the curriculum. startin this march, nav have been gettin 30 hours in the t-6. now we wont solo. UPT on the other have is super long and difficult, a lot of guys wash out.
