New Job Outlook

Well since the Aviation Industry is such a booming one right now I figured I would take some chances with the USAF. I am suprised that they have recently dropped the GPA from their requirements which might be a good thing for me. Since I have a 2.97 and they used to require a 3.0 minimum. But, I am going to start the application process tonight and I am going to then be meeting with an officer recruiter August 6th at 9a.m. I know its early, even more so since its an hour and a half drive the the office. I have already started studying for the AFOQT and started looking at the TBAS. Both of which seem to be fairly easy from my stand point. Hopefully I will be able to beat the odds, which are 16% acceptance rate, and fly with the best in the world. I know when I think of the Air Force I always think F-16 or some kind of fighter, but I think everyone does. More than likely I will not get one of those slots but fingers are still crossed. I would like to think that I am more qualified then most of the applicants at this point. I am almost done with my CFII and will then move straight to my Multi-Commercial and then MEI. With a little luck they will all be done by the end of the year and I will be on my way to OTS.
