On paper, you are very competitive.

Guard units like to hire people they know (enlisted members of the unit) or have personal recommendations from other pilots in that unit.

Also, personality is VERY important. You are being hired to go to war. The question that will be asked: Is this a good dude to go TDY with? Or is he a tool?

Finally, the medical exam disqualifies a lot of people.

You can ask all you want, but it means nothing. You have to apply and find out for yourself.

FYI: I have served on several (Guard) pilot selection boards
