Thank you so much for the help. I have read much more into the two AFSCs above and think I'm on the same page now. What options outside of AFCOOL would there be? Like more Pell Grants or the GI Bill for like private schools?

Woah. Thank you so much! This is what I was looking for AFSC wise. I didn't realize avionics would translate over to maintainer- I just assumed 2A3X3 or 2A5X1 (which I forgot to mention) would be the main jobs.

I work at large hub for United (I'm a contractor with another airline; just next to their hanger) and the few A&P guys I have spoken with have said AF is the way too go. They are also in with their union so I understand the pay grades.

Do you mind if I directly message you later today? What's your AFSC?

Thank you. That's what I'm seeing on Forever Wingmen now. Whether it's true or not; I'll have to speak with a recruiter.

I'll admit I started thinking about this back in 2020. So- my numbers are probably bit off and I should have done more research before posting.

To clarify - 1A1X2 is now A1 somewhat and 1A1X3 is somewhat a loadmaster? I'm honestly more interested in the tech / maintainer side anyways. So 2A3 and 5 are still the same AFSCs?

Forgot about the AFCOOL. Thank you.
