With the way timing and career progression works in Navair, that ship has sailed. The only real hope for a transition is to get an oddball C-something gig or go fly orange and white, but already having completed his JO shore tour, that will be very difficult. The next move in a standard career is a disassociated sea tour, which usually involves being part of a staff or ships company and is often non-flying.
If you want to stay in the cockpit, you need to start exploring "other" paths like reserves, Coast Guard DCA, and the like. I have seen a lot of guys transition from a less than stellar Tacair tour into an above average tour in another community, but timing isn't on your side when it comes to Navy detailing.
