Marine Air
Which way is easier to become a pilot? The Marine or the Air Force?
Slots are very tight in Air force. I dont konw if I can fly plane in Air Force after I finished flight school. I wonder if the Marine will give me better opportunity to fly planes.
As far as flight school is concerned, Marine and Air Force aviators both go though similar programs at first (they actually train together and then you will then move onto a specific community). When you are considering which armed service to go with you should consider your personality, the type of missions you want (do you want to fly a c-130 or an attack helicopter, etc), and then look into which service will offer you a slot. In addition, if you can take some flying lessons (if financially feasible, etc.) or if you already have hours that is great, but not necessary.
If you want more specific information there is plenty of information on the web, you can talk to a recruiter, or ask another question on Y!A -- but I don't want to bog you down with that information if you already know and it can get pretty detailed.
My number one suggestion if you decide to join any armed service, in particular the Marine Corps, is that you want to serve first and fly second as not everyone who starts the program will be able to finish. There is much more involved than just the act of flying, and you must absolutely want to be there and be dedicated to it.
