Basics here only, and I'm Active Duty, but...

1. Contact state aviation battalion recruiter directly. Pass the AFAST and physical, get programed for training.

2. Basic Training as a Private (9-10 weeks), Warrant Officer Candidate School at Fort Rucker (5 or 6 weeks), flight school at Fort Rucker (8-12 months), SERE C (3 Weeks).

3. Get home to your unit and start training for Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Russia, Venezula...

4. You'll have to give your two weeks per year, one weekend per month, and any additional days required to maintian currency on the aircrew training program.

5. More Army WO information over on the APTAP Forum. We Army guys are out numbered here by cool guys in other services with the better jobs.

Does anyone know the correct age limit with/without waivers? I keep hearing everything from 29 to 33, all the way up to 42. I'm curious about the Army National Guard. Thank you

Find out where the Aviation units are located in those states and go talk to them. NY has aviation units in Albany and Long Island and CT has an aviation unit in Groton. Also, RI has an aviation unit in Quonset.

Do you have to dwell within the same state in which the units to which you're applying are based?
