    You know you don't gotta do the ship thing...There are direct to flight school spots. And ships aren't all they are cracked up to be...

    It changes class to class- I was about 50 out of 208 and could have gone direct to flight school...but I was Academy. There are less people per class...and less flight slots out of OCS (as I understand it).

    Soon....
    Been a pilot since May 2009, almost have 200hrs, starting instrument rating now. I'm on the flight team here at Auburn, which is a blast.
    This pic is when I flew it to Miami with our flight team for the regional competition. (We didn't get to go to Nationals by about 30 points, which is crazy considering centerline deviations cost you 50 points)
