Default Regional to Air Force Reserve?

Hello,

I'm sure this has been mentioned in bits and pieces in many threads, but I really have a serious question here... I'm currently a 3 year regional pilot, flying a CRJ 200. In just a few weeks I will have a BS degree.

I am seriously flirting with the idea of an Air Force career... part of me wants a reserve career, and part of me wants a full-time air force career.

What is the pay like in a full time Air Force job?

How hard is it to get a slot in the reserves?

I really don't know that much about it... I just really love the idea of flying a c-130 or a c-5....

Is it a good idea to go from airline to Air Force?

I feel like I would have wasted a lot of money in flight training, just to get it again in the air force... is that correct?
