I've always wanted to fly military, but my vision kept me out. Now that they're granting waivers for PRK, I'm trying to join as a pilot. It looks like the Marines are my best shot at a pilot slot. Plus some of my friends went in a few years ago on ground contracts, and from what they told me it sounds like the Marine Corps is where I want to go in life.
I'm 23 with an aeronautics degree and 1000+ hours. From talking with recruiters I shouldn't have any problem getting into OCS an aviation contract after getting PRK.
I'm happy to fly helos, but jets would be my preference. Does anyone know about how many Marine pilots are going into jets right now, and how many are expected in the next few years?
