Hey fellas,

I'm a U.S. citizen but my mother is Canadian, so I believe I'm eligible for citizenship. I'm 21 years old at a state university in a respected engineering program. If I pull off a nice GPA (>3.5) and obtain citizenship, what are my prospects for flying? I've got at least 20/20 vision and I'm in good shape. Would the Air Force care if I've lived in the States all my life? Also, I've got a pilots license if it matters. After I got a taste of it, I really think I'd like to make it a career.

Also, does the Canadian Air Force guarantee a chance to at least start the "weeding out" process? Because only the Marine Corps does in the U.S., and it's especially hard to qualify.
