In the Army Air Corps, do only commissioned officers pilot aircraft? I've heard that sometimes senior NCOs/WOs do.

Hi Joseph, thanks for your question.

Both commissioned officers and NCOs fly in the Army Air Corps. You must be at least the rank of LCpl to be recommended for the Pilots' Course.

Take care,
Maddie
