"Candidates with civilian flight training, such as a private pilot's license, also tend to fair better with the selection board than those with no flying experience, at all."
From what I've been told however, is once you get too many hours you learn "bad habits" that the Air Force doesn't like, but I wasn't really given any examples. Most colleges have ROTC programs that you can join and will guide you along if you want to pursue that route.
