You should be more specific on what you are asking for but I will try to answer the question.
You must be atleast 17 (with parents signature) or 18-27 to join on your own. If you have any dependents you will have to give custody to a family member for when you have to leave and go to BMT. When it comes down to it you have to have a pretty clean record. This includes criminal, drug use, and credit. You will then be sent by your recruiter to take the ASVAB. This is a test that is simular to the SAT and it will judge what job you are able to get inot. Right now the AF is pretty full and they are actually trying to get people out so the job selection aint the greatest. After that you will fill out all the applications and you pass the ASVAB you will go to MEPS. MEPS is the the medical facility that will take care of your medical physical to make sure you qualify both to get in and that you qualify for certain jobs. You will also list the jobs that you want to get into. Again the AF job selection aint the greatest so the AF needs will come first. You will list 4 jobs that you want and then your 5 choice will be a general area. So say you just General Electrical. Well this opens you up to take an Electrical job the AF is offering at the time. You will list your jobs and then go home. Within a couple weeks your recruiter will call you and tell you what job you got and when you should expect to be leaving for BMT. After that you will go back to MEPS and raise your right hand for the AF. This is not saying you are in its more of a "I promise to go into the AF" and you will be placed in the Delayed Entry Program. From this day till the day you leave it will count as your inactive reserve time. Finally when you are ready to leave you will have all your stuff packed and you will go back to MEPS where you will raise your right hand again. This time you are raising your right hand and will be in the AF. Right after that you will be taken to the airport and be send to TX for training.
Well I hope that is what you were looking for.

are you talking about joining qualifications?. .you have to take the ASVAB test and pass, have a highschool diploma, pass a physical and drug test, then you can join. I went through Air Force basic training, at first, oh god, but by the end, it was the best experience I ever had in my life!!! I had a blast, minus some blisters.
