in every branch (excluding army, for army has no fixed wing aircraft, and warrent officers fly helicopters) it averages 10% are officers, and 5% of officers are pilots.
Marines fly the F/A 18 which is an attack bomber in some roles.
The only UH-60's flown by the Marine Corps are flown by HMX-1. The Marine Corps uses the UH-1 for similar missions throughout the rest of the fleet...
One that Obama wants back very soon, lol. its called marine 1 because the marines fly it just like air force 1. The air force fly that one.
Yes, they do. There are three Marine Aircraft Wings. The Marine Corps' fighting forces are composed of land assault, naval assault, and air assault. The Marines are small, but that doesn't mean they don't fight hard. Some of the aircraft they fly are the F/A-18 Hornet and SuperHornet and the AV-8B Harrier II plus a wide variety of helicopters.

Penguins can not fly. They can swim and they can waddle, but, they can't fly.
Only one percent of the air force fly.
Military planes can only be flied by the military officers because the officers are well-trained and highly qualified to fly the military aircrafts. The officers are trained in high altitudes and in many different regions which helps them in flying the aircraft in bad whether or whatever the condition is.
Most services only have commissioned officers as pilots, and a degree is a requirement of being a commissioned officer. However, it is possible to fly as a Warrant Officer - most Army helicopter pilots are Warrant Officers, rather than commissioned officers.
