I’d imagine they would only pay for some if you already had quite a few hours banked? That’s the first I’ve heard of that.
It seems like going to civilian route to helicopter pilot is very costly and you still can’t compete with x military pilots when it comes to finding a job. Although you could probably do it a lot faster than 12 years. I’ll look into well operating a bit.
Any particular reason the military would be tough to get into?
Just a lot of competition for those spots when they come up? I know being bilingual isn’t required when you apply but would it hurt your chances a lot not knowing French?
