Still butt-hurt that my recruiter told me "street to seat" wasn't a thing. I'm happy for ya bro, don't lose that motivation, keep your momentum. Just remember, if it's not on paper, it didn't happen. If you want disability when you get out, get every injury on paper and you'll be good. Lastly, the quality of the safety wire on your aircraft will give you a good idea of the competence of your mechanic(s).

Best of luck. Back in 2009/10-ish I flew Robinsons at Lantana Airport in Palm Beach, Fl at the local flight school. I (and other instructors) gave some instruction to a few Apache pilots (And Blackhawk pilots) who were looking to become CFI's. The plan was for them to teach at Ft Rucker (I think it was Ft Rucker) as civilian contractors. That was the height of the "Global War on Terror" and the Army needed to train more pilots. They had to go through a civilian flight school to train instructors. I was very surprised to learn I had more time flying and teaching in Robinson R22's in my two years at that flight school than those Apaches pilots had in 10 years of flying Apaches. I remember one pilot saying he only had 1,200 hours. I hope you get more time flying than they did.

Best advice I got was one guy willing to help me enlist and give me all the bonuses I could (job was for 37F PSYOPS, which he said showed good intelligence on board if I ever wanted to go aviation pilot) I’m going to try again next year after I get my degree and go the officer route, I’m 30 and don’t have a ton of time left.
