Does the HPSP Commitment Teach You How to Fly Airplanes and Swim?

[94hdogs]

I was wondering if the airforce or navy will teach you how to swim or fly an airplane along with your commitment. Does the airforce do both?

Lol, no. Generally not.

The Air Force has a curriculum to teach doctors about the fundamentals of aviation. During the courses, you get flight experience; however, you would have to get additional flight time in the civilian world to be eligible for a private pilot license.

I can't speak for the Navy; however, I know that they have numerous diving courses and there are fellowships for Dive Medicine.
