Of cse it's better to sign as ME4 Air Force Officer... After u pass out, u will be posted into a flt in ALS as Dy OC... Everyday do nothing but reviewing this and that, send out useless emails to somebody next door, organize events for the squadrons, write USMS, go tea break and talk cock.. When time to go back just go, attend safety briefing and talk the same old crap every month.For all these u get 4-5 K every month without fail.Last but not least must pass IPPT if not affect your performance bonus.
It's still a better deal than joining some aircraft maintenance license training programme as degree holders, getting 2500 dollars fixed for 44 months, must pass all exams if not Kenna terminated and after passed out only to find out they have been conned..ie only extra license allowance 500 dollars but basic still 2500 dollars. Work in OPS line rain or shine, day or night and risking your license if anything happen to the aircraft that you sign.
