Unfortunately I am merely a 300 hour dreamer right now, but I am strongly interested in this as a career in the future. I'm a little older than your average low time guy (27), and the stability and unique mission is what attracts me the most. Plus I have some military time I can buy back.

Appreciate any help.
Post 148 and a post on Page 17 of this thread details the experience of an Indoc class at one point in time.
Like everywhere, the hiring environment changes with the industry.
Right now I would think that you could get on with a lot less time than I did back when I was hired. I was the lowest time guy by far in my new hire class at 3500 TT with only about <300 hrs being civilian. My particular times were posted on #108.
