Air Force Pilot training takes 13 months, Navy takes 18-24 months..."within one year"???? Maybe a Navy guy could chime in, but I don't think you even see a carrier in the Navy until year 3.
No to mention every student is a college graduate and had to be in the 96th percentile of candidates to get selected, and on average had 150 hours or more when they started training (for ROTC or OTS/OCS guys)....
