[QUOTE="CDep55, post: 9518760, member: 56893"] If your goal is to become a civilian pilot then i would look into the Air National Guard as well. Texas ANG has a fighter wing with F-16s I believe. As well as an airlift wing with C-130s. Something good about joining the ANG is that if they hire you to be a pilot with the fighter wing, as long as you pass all the training you will be a fighter pilot. If you join the active duty Air Force you don't have much control over what you end up flying. From what I understand only the top people in the class usually get fighter slots, and then your ANG people. I am not exactly sure what happens if you don't pass pilot training. Probably same thing, but at least if your in the guard you only have a part-time commitment so you can continue to move on with your civilian career. I am enlisted in the Air National Guard, as a C-130 Loadmaster. I enjoy the flying and the mission. I am not in the Texas wing though. I am sure there is a huge difference in C-130 lifestyle and fighter pilots, and I can only speak for C-130. But look into what would would fit best with a civilian career. [/QUOTE]
