The screening to even begin Airforce Wings would eliminate most CX cadets.From the skills being demonstrated by most JFOs, maybe 1 in 10 would ever make it to Wings. It has alot to do with the near vertical learning curve and miss two in a row and you're done. That being said, many Cadets will eventually become accomplished pilots. The risk is getting from here to there without killing anyone.
