Sorry for sounding entitled, I was incredibly excited for this career opportunity that being said I spent yesterday scrolling through this thread and the majority of posts were trashing this position. I know the pay is awesome but personally I wouldn't mind making far less money if it meant showing up to a place I love working at.
That being said thank you for the information
If you want to be a Federal Law Enforcement Officer AND fly - then it is probably one of the top jobs out there. There are other people out there on the board that have flown for the FBI and DEA too.
If you just want to be a pilot - then you will not want the AIA job as there are other aspects of the job.
I still think it is a very important job, but I'm not sure if I still know anyone there personally anymore. The job has certainly taken a hit since I looked hard at it.
