Another post awhile back said that Aviate is just a recruiting tool and something used to keep you in line , reduce sick calls etc while you wait for a call. Until these guys start moving off the list , I’m inclined to somewhat believe it .
Then they should bypass AVIATE and do the traditional OTS process. I don’t see many OTS interviews going to sub 2000 hour aviators.
