Pablo, and what operational experience do you base your advice on apart from reading brochures yourself?
Tegwin, I would take professional students' advice. Get amongst it and have fun chasing the girls and drinking pi$$ 'now'. Civvie hours do not count for anything once you're in (except maybe a few to show to your board members motivation for flying), and I know that for a fact coming from a civvie rotary background and being at the tail end of the long pilots course (aussie - RAN) as we speak. Might I add, that unlearning almost a thousand hours of habits and re-learning them the Mil way can be trying, so I would suggest not doing too much training at all if Mil is they way you end up deciding to go. Should you not make it through course, you can always then spend your hard earned dough and go the civvie route.
