You realize what that sounds like, right?

And yes, aircraft pilots DO take crash courses! Professional aircraft pilots are sent to flight simulators where they have to work their way through one disaster after another--the kinds of things that you can't do in the airplane because the chances of getting killed are pretty good. The idea is, if they experience all these disasters in training they'll be able to survive if they happen in real life--and that works very well; since they started doing this the number of crashes is way down.

There are short training sessions they attend on things like weather and new equipment that you'd call "crash courses" but no pilot would ever call them that because "crash" is not what they want to do.

Did the pilots during World War 2 that flew off the navy carriers fall under the army air corp or where they navy?

US Navy Aircraft Carriers normally operated US Navy aircraft flown by US Navy pilots; however sometimes during WW2 these aircraft carriers had US Army Air Force or US Marine Corps aircraft on-board to be flown-off by Army or Marine pilots. This was for ferrying operations. These aircraft would take off from the carriers but land on an airfield. Army pilots were not trained to land on carriers, neither were the Army aircraft equipped for carrier landings. US Marine pilots & Marine aircraft could operate from carriers if necessary, until they could be established at an airfield.
