      Need some quick advice. I’ve been studying for AFOQT and just learning more about flying. A few days ago my local fighter unit posted an opening but all docs and flight hours are due by April 4th. 

      I decided to not attempt to get flight hours in and take AFOQT within the next month and just be better prepared for the next board which will probably be in a year or two. I’m currently 22, do you think this is the best path, or should I give this board a shot?

      • You still have some time to get some flight hours in before you apply. That’s what I would do. Most other applicants who get selected for an interview with have a PPL at a minimum. I guard slots are very competitive these days. I would give it my best shot, and hope for at least an interview. That way you can at least practice for next time
