Main Bryan Pho. 2-1584 IF YOU CAN WIN THESE WINGS YOU CAN EARN OVER ’5,000 A YEAR AFTER GRADUATION Important facts 1 the opportunities for YOU as a Commissioned Officer—Pilot or Aircraft Observer— t • in the United States Air Force Must I be a college graduate to be a Pilot? No. But you must have completed a minimum of 60 semester hours or 90 quarter hours toward a degree. In addition, under the new Aviation Cadet Pilot training program, you must be between the ages of 19 and 263-2 years, unmarried, and in good physical condition—with high requirements for eyes, ears, heart and teeth. How long before I get my commission? 60 calendar weeks. You will receive the finest aviation training in the world—training that not only equips you td fly modern military aircraft but prepares you for executive and administra tive work as well. At the completion of your training, you will have acquired a commission as a 2nd Lieutenant and won the coveted silver wings of the United States Air Force. Where do I take my training? Pre-flight training will be at Lackland Air Force Base, San Antonio, Texas. Primary, basic and advanced training will be taken at any one of the many Air Force bases located throughout the South and Southwest. What happens if I flunk the training course? Every effort is made to help students whose progress is unsatis factory. You can expect extra instructions and whatever indi vidual attention you may require. However, if you fail to complete the course as an Aviation Cadet, you will be required to serve a two-year enlistment to fulfill the minimum requirement under Selective Service laws. What pay do I get as an Aviation Cadet? And after? As an Aviation Cadet you draw $109.20 a month pay. In addition, you get summer and winter uniforms, flight clothes, equipment, food, housing, medical and dental care and insurance ... all free. After you are commissioned a 2nd Lieutenant you will be earning $5,300.00 a year—with unlimited opportunities for advancement. Are all Aviation Cadets trained to be Pilots? No. You can choose between becoming a Pilot or an Aircraft Observer. Men who choose the latter will become commissioned officers in Navigation, Bombardment, Radar Operation, or Aircraft Performance Engineering. Do Aircraft Observers get flying training, too? Yes. Aircraft Observer Cadets receive approximately 200 hours of "in the air” instruction. The primary phase of Aircraft Observer training is the same for all branches (navigation, bombardment, etc.). The basic and advanced phase of training varies, depending on the specific course you wish to pursue. What kind of ships will I fly? You will fly jets. The Pilot Cadet takes his first instructions in a light, civilian-type plane of approximately 100 horsepower, then graduates to the 600 horsepower T-6 "Texan” before receiving transition training in jets. You then advance gradually until you are flying such famous first-line aircraft as F-86 Sabre, F-49 Scorpion, B-47 Stratojet, B-50 Superfortress. Observer Cadets take flight instructions in the C-47 Dakota, the T-29 Convair, and the TB-Superfortress before advancing to first-line aircraft such as the F-89 Scorpion, B-47 Stratojet or TB-50 Superfortress. Will my commission be in the Regular Air Force or Reserve? Aviation Cadet graduates, both Pilots and Aircraft Observers get Reserve commissions as 2nd Lieutenants. Some outstanding graduates in both programs will be offered Regular commissions. How long must I remain in Service? After graduation as an Aviation Cadet, you are tendered an indefinite appointment in the United States Air Force Reserve and are called to active duty with the United States Air Force for a period of three years. What recreation and leisure time will I have as a Cadet? Discipline will be rigid—especially for the first few weeks. However, it is not all work. You’ll find swimming pools, handball courts, movies and other forms of recreation on the post. After your first 4 months, your commandant may allow you to apply for overnight passes. Where will I be stationed when I get my commission? You may be stationed anywhere in the world . . . Hawaii, Far East, Europe, Puerto Rico, elsewhere. During your tour of duty, you will be in close touch with the latest developments in new flying techniques. You will continue to build up your flying experience and later, should have no difficulty securing a CAA commercial pilot rating. Your future is assured if you can qualify! Here’s what to do: / Take a transcript of your college credits and a copy of your birth certificate to your nearest Air Force Base or Recruiting Station. Fill out the application they give you. If application is accepted, the Air Force will arrange for you to take a physical examination at government expense. Next, you will be given a written and manual aptitude test. If you pass your physical and other tests, you will be scheduled for an Aviation Cadet training class. The Selective Service Act allows you a four-month deferment while waiting class assignment.
