    Serious Question

    I think I might want to be a heli pilot for the Coast Guard.

    Is anyone on here in the Coast Guard and has some advice?

      I need to learn. Although I am taking aviation classes in college for planes
      But was thinking about learning the heli too.

        Well good luck I can't help you out much but I would guess that coast guard heli pilots would be ex-airforce due to extreme conditions they would face regularly.

          I think the army and navy fly more helos than the air force.

              Just finish up your degree and get commissioned, that would be your best bet.

                  Check out the ROTC at your school, they will have the best answers.
