Only the best prepared are chosen to start the highly competitive
multimillion-dollar training programs that transform aspiring candidates
into U.S. military aviators. This fully updated edition of Barron's
Military Flight Aptitude Tests provides would-be aviators in all five
U.S. armed services with the competitive edge they will need to score
their best and maximize their chances of being selected!
This book is an effective, full-spectrum resource for officer
candidates, ROTC cadets from all services, and current military members.
Six full-length practice tests (two per service) with answers and
explanations for every question get readers ready for the Air Force
Officer Qualifying Test (AFOQT), the Selection Instrument for Flight
Training (SIFT), and the Navy/Marine Corps/Coast Guard Aviation
Selection Test Battery (ASTB-E). Test overviews and detailed review
sections give potential pilots the boost they need to rise to the top of
the selection list, and most of the review subjects apply to all three
tests. Successful aviation applicants strongly recommend working through
every valuable review section, and the other services' tests are great
for extra practice to reinforce your learning.
Written by a veteran, joint qualified military officer and instructor,
this book's review sections cover language skills, reading
comprehension, math knowledge, arithmetic reasoning, mechanical
comprehension, aviation and nautical technical information, science, and
specific mental skills such as block counting, finding hidden figures,
and spatial apperception. The author also coaches readers on effective
study techniques, provides expanded information resources, and gives
pilot candidates a thorough preview of how each test is structured and
conducted.
