Talking to a Recruiter....Major Q's????
I have one year left until I am finished with a BA in Criminology from
Central
Connecticut
State
University
with a GPA higher than a 3.0 and I am extremely interested in being a fighter pilot to say the least. I was wondering besides meeting all of the basic qualifications, plus studying for the AFOQT what else should I do in order to be successful in my endeavor. Is there anything to look out for with the recruiters? Did I completely destroy my chances of making it seeing as I did not go to the AFA? Also if I am not selected as a fighter pilot right off the bat can I start as, say a Nav and then become a fighter pilot or is that option over if I am not selected initially? It has been my dream to do this ever since I can remember (plus memorizing the entire movie "Top Gun" probably showed some interest to). I
really
would
appreciate
as much information as I can get on these questions as well as the entire process (if possible). Thanks for you time.
Aspiring Fighter Pilot,
Michael C. Graf

Re: Talking to a Recruiter....Major Q's????
Well how many years did you complete in college? Did you earn your bachelors degree? You need to become an officer to become a fighter pilot in the airforce before a certain age. And you dont go in as a pilot. You will take tests and the higher grade you get on them gives you a higher chance of applying for a fighter pilot slot. You have to be an accepted pilot candidate and go through all that UPT stuff I think.
Go talk to your local recruiter is all that can be said.
