Hugh,
In my experience in two units, he's very lucky. I had one guy like that ROTC cut all UPT slots, post Desert Storm, he came to our unit and was sent. On-base recommendation helped.
Montey,
Some flight experience is helpful, if only to show interest and basic ability. 100-200 hours is good, after that, not so much.

Use caution enlisting. I've seen plenty of folks enlist with grand designs of getting Commissioned and on to upt that got quite comfortable and established in their post-high school routine. Their ambition and drive faded as their personal responsibilities grew and they never went beyond.
Not that there's anything wrong with a career enlisted in the guard or ad, but if you go that route, remember WHY you went that route and your goals.
