Military Aviation Chances?

In your opinion what branch would be the least difficult to get into aviation? Fixed Wing Aviation

I am thinking
1. Air Force
2. Navy
3. Marine Corps
4. Army
Army being the easiest
I want to serve my country and fly at the same time I just dont have any preference for any particular branch.

Army has fixed-wing aviation, but those slots are few. If you sign up for aviation, the odds of you going to rotary-wing are quite high.
Other than that, they are about the same, with the Army allowing Warrants to fly fixed-wing.

Army has a WOFT program. The slots are mostly rotary wing. They are not however excepting 100% of applicants. The current acceptance rate is only around 10%. You have several qualifications to meet BEFORE being able to qualify for the board. One is passing the AFAST with a minimum of 90 but 110 is recommended for consideration. If you are wanting fixed wing then I would go to each service's recruiter and ask them and then educate yourself by research.

I cannot necessarily speak as to which is the "easiest" as they all have their challenges. You should know though that aside from the Air National Guard, the Army has little to no fixed wing aircraft meaning it would be one of the hardest to get... not the easiest. The Army primarily has rotary wing though this is going to start changing as the nature of our missions change. There is even talk about reintegrating the air force into the army like it was 50 years ago.

they are ALL hard to get into, the standards for Aviation are much more stringent than the rest of the Branch, regardless of the Branch.

if you are strictly wanting fixed wing, the Navy and AF have the most FW(non combat craft) , the Marines and Army the least, so by default, Army and Marines are tougher to get as there are fewer slots open.

If you just wanna fly and who cares what, the Army's WOFT program is currently the most wide open and last count was accepting 100% of all qualified applicants.
