You cannot get Aircrew by being an AO anymore than you can get Aircrew by being a CS. AOs used to be able to volunteer for NACCS and get assigned to P-3s, but their duties have been absorbed by AWVs.

If you want to be a Naval Aircrewman, you MUST get a contract for AIRC (Fixed-Wing/MH-53E) or AIRR (Rescue Swimmer/MH-60)... otherwise you have to try to cross-rate after 2 years in your current rating.
