Default Future in Aviation for my Son?

What about military flying, Jay? Helo's as a WO would get him in the air
the fastest....or go get a Art History Degree (because we all know it
takes a degree to fly a plane) and go in as an officer?

Just a thought (and my dream up until my Senior year in High School when
the Doc said "read me the bottom line".....)


Jay should explore taking it one step further and look into ROTC or even the
Air Force Academy (Naval Academy would apply as well) so his son can get the
education for FREE. Well, relatively speaking. If his son gets a pilot slot,
I believe the committment is 8 years or so.

Plus, AFA grads tend to get their pick of the pointy-nosed aircraft.
