I'm currently in my first year of College majoring in Aeronautical Science. I'm strongly considering enlisting in the ANG as a flight engineer in hopes of getting a pilot slot after College. Has anyone else on the board done this? I'm looking at the C-5 unit in Newburgh, NY. How long does Basic training and the FE training take? Will I be able to obtain an FAA Flight Engineer's license after completing the training? What is the length of the commitment to be a FE? My vision is 20/160 correctable to 20/20. Will I have a better chance of getting a waiver, if I have prior service history for a future Pilot slot? Any help and advice from those who have been in my situation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
