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)....
Also, military pilots had to go through intense leadershiip training and decision making training. civilian pilots comming out of these universities dont go through that type of training.
