So since I was about 13, I knew I wanted to be a pilot. I got my ppl in rotorcraft my senior year in high school and enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps because I felt that being prior enlisted would make me a better officer. I had fully intended on working towards a USMC commission, and getting an air contract. But now that I'm in and around the aircraft (I'm an F/A-18C Airframe Mech), I realize how old the Marine Corps fleet of aircraft is, and some of the type of missions our pilots fly and I'm not sure if I should maybe EAS, and talk to a Navy OSO. I've asked around my chain of command, but all I get is "my devil dog ain't gonna be some squid". My questions are, how long start to finish is the process of talking to an OSO and getting a packet in? What can I do before I EAS to make that go faster, (Get the class I physical?).
