Question
i am a senior in high school and applying to colleges. i want
to become an pilot for the air force, but i am 16 and cant
apply for the air force academy. what school would you
recommend for me?

Answer
I would suggest you to start taking flight lessons toward your private pilot license, and some aviation courses. One of students actually did complete PPL and start college and apply for Air Force Academy down in Pensacola FL. That is an way to put your foot inside.
Air Force is looking for an motivation and desire to be an air force aviator, so starting an aviation course and flight lessons toward your Private Pilot License would be definitely befits for you..
