And it’s not 1-2 per 100. I’d guess it’s a lower number. But even with a lower number you’ll be in the top 2-3%, perhaps 5%, of candidates applying. Many of the candidates will have prior military time or decent, if not significant, flight time. It’s a competitive process and character, and personality, is part of the mix.
