  1. Flight Engineer, Gunner, PJ (If applicable). Don't listen to the liberal crap. They have no clue what they are talking about. I'm a Crew Chief and I should know.
  2. Don't do it, you'll be used until you're no good to the cause of illegal war, then you'll be tossed out on your ass with no benefits
  3. You could be an aircraft machanic.
  4. All of the jobs in the air force are aviation jobs !!! Dumb a$$....
  5. In the AF, MOS is called AFSC. If you follow the link it will give you the AFSC's of most of the jobs in the AF. Once you find an AFSC that interests you, do a search in about.com and you will get a complete job description, requirements, where the school is and how long it will last. Good luck, the AF is the right choice! By the way there are a lot of jobs in the AF that do not deal with aviation!
  6. I'v known a few load masters, they all loved their jobs and they were all in the AF for life and were honored to serve our country. Bless you for serving our nation. UK Fan........thank you for your service to our country too!
  7. Load master on a C17 will work for you, but in flight you're sort of a "flight attendant." Look into a boom operator on the KC10 or KC135. You'll fly, travel, refuel aircraft while in flight, get great pay, and you don't have to deal with passengers very often.
  8. There are a few that you can choose from. Go here and it will show all the enlisted crew member AFSCs. I think the one they are hurting for the most is Flight Engineer. http://usmilitary.about.com/od/airforceenlistedjobs/a/afjobaircrew.htm If you want a great job look into the AF Spec Ops. I am a TACP and love it..
  9. Despite the name "Air Force," we don't have a lot of helicopters in the Air Force. About the only enlisted position in helicopters is a Pararescueman. Not sure of the MOS number...but just tell your recruiter, he will know. It is about the most elite enlisted specialty...tantamount to Navy Seals, or Green Berets of the other services. If that doesn't float your boat, and you still want to fly, check out loadmaster positions on transport planes, boomer on KC-135 tankers, or even go into weather and be a dropsonde operator with the C-130 Hurricane Hunters. If you really, really must do helicopters, the Army would be your best bet, as they have the most...but as a former AF guy who has done his share of time in Army support roles, I really wouldn't recommend it, lol!
  10. Ther are a ton of flite duty jobs from crew chief, air refueling, aeromedical evacuation, you name it.
