Stuti,
Thanks for your post! I see you’re already in the Army Guard so is your intent with going into the AFR to help align your goals with getting a pilot slot? I am assuming so.
First thing first, I always say joining shouldn’t solely be based on “it will get me a pilot slot” because that isn’t true. Going enlisted while trying to be picked…

Hunter,
Thanks for reaching out and hopefully I can help answer some of your questions. Age is a very difficult item when it comes to military aviation. I’ll answer your questions then try to expand as well.

As you all have seen with the changes with UPT in the span of a few years, warfare is an ever changing battle space as well. I bet 15 years ago those who flew would have never thought F-16s would be used and carry weapons to shoot naval ships at long range.
