    Trades Acceptable for Pilot Transfer

    Sorry, as you can see im a newbie at this. I know its rare for AEC's to be on planes and most are on the ground. Could you care to explain exactly you M.O. if its not to much to ask? More specifically what I should expect if I was deployed as an AEC on a plane? Is there different tasks than...

    I was under the impression that only Air Weapon Controllers are the ones that get a chance to fly along with pilots.

    Yeah, she believes that AEC's have more of a stationary position compared to pilots which I give her credit for. Even though AEC's are expected to be deployed at a moments notice, there not as frequently mobile as their pilot counterparts would be.

    Yeah, I know with AEC theres a mandatory enrollment of four years in the forces as for pilot theres a minimum of ten years service. Also if Im not mistaken AEC's are more stationary at air force bases compared to pilots. My girlfriend of two years also seems to like the AEC option a lot better...

I had a couple of really bad classes in my first year of university and I wasnt that competitive in my first few...

    Im guessing my University transcript wasnt as competitive from the sounds of it. I was told in my interview as well that most applicants that do apply for pilot have prior flying experience as well, and are pretty much A students. If you dont mind me asking what are you studying in school

    Youve been a lot of help, thank you very much. Im guessing you didnt go the ROTP route if your highschool transcript didnt matter. As for the series of tests that take 3 hours for AEC, do I need to brush up on my math or what would you say would prepare me the most for it

    I actually have a really good case for Pilot besides my High School transcript. I know academics plays a big role in the decision making. As for aircrew selection were you sent with only AECs or other aircrew trades as well and if so were you all doing the same testing or assigned specific...
