Between 24 week Modular IOT and a FJ OCU is about 24-26 months (that includes groundschool, EFT, FJ Lead In, BFT and AJT - Prefect, Texan and Hawk). The FJ OCU might take another 9 months or so and then a combat ready work up another 6-12 months. So all in around 4 years with no breaks. Add in a year there, a month or 2 there and 2 years here, and then you get the 7 years in the flying training pipeline numbers being quoted.
