May 31, 200520 yr I hear that!! Just turned 27 and start UPT a couple of months from now after ASBC . . . married, a 15 month old daughter . . . and damn it - feels good to be going. What a blessing to chase my dreams after years of concrete construction and college. Man, I sound so cheesy and sentimental . . . almost as if I was old or something.
June 8, 200520 yr Get many former army helo guys coming through over the age of 30? I understand you dont need a waiver, if you were an Army Aviator?
June 8, 200520 yr SEARCH FUNCTION! If you are a military rated aviator, UNDERGRADUATE pilot training age is not restrictive, because you are already a rated military pilot. The OTS age issue STILL applies, for you WO to CO folks.
June 8, 200520 yr I don't think age matters; what matters is your determination to succeed while serving your country. Let's not forget the reasons why we are here.That is all about it... I am about to turn 28, and by the time I am ready for WOFT I should be a litle over 29 or 30. Still needs a waier but who cares, I am much better than many 20 to 25 year olds around, in many aspects. Army is supposedly raising the age limit to 32 for flight training and apparently age is not a big issue to them, -one of my instructors got in flight program at 32-, as long as you are physically fit and there is no problem with your flying. If you ask me, some folks here are pretty rude thinking 33-34 year olds are grandpas. Those people happen to be more mature and I bet they would not be talking about some people's stupid screwup experiments with alcohol while trying hard not to break their hips.
June 8, 200520 yr Man, I sound so cheesy and sentimental . . . almost as if I was old or something.Being old is good, you have MORE memories and experiences to share with youngsters who have little. [ 08. June 2005, 08:54: Message edited by: Bushmaster ]
June 8, 200520 yr If you ask me, some folks here are pretty rude thinking 33-34 year olds are grandpas.It's all relative. To you I'm young at 29, to me my class mates are young at 22-23...
