17yrs old Have some questions about enlisting

[kalebarellano]

Hello, I have been ready stuff on this site for a while, and I finally joined. I am currently 17yrs old, and I graduate high school in May of 2007. I have some questions about what steps I need to take. I have read you need to take tests and stuff, could I do that while I'm 17? Also I have read so many mixxed info about the enlistment bonuses. Whats the real deal? Also I am interested in airplanes, and am taking flying lessons. What MOS'es are there that involve airplanes, are any of them the critical ones? I have heard of advantages of signing up for a critcal MOS, such as the enlistment bonuses. I am in central florida, when could I get trained? Also what is the pay like, I have heard different things from $800 a month to $1200 a month for fresh starter? Do you get paid for basic?

Let me know.

Thanks
