The jets are still in concept mode. They won't be implented until CCP can fix what's going on with dropships now, and it doesn't appear they are making any progress there. I'd say go for it though only if you have a crazy ton of patience.
One thing I will recommend is skilling back into the light frame but not the scout. Reason being is they are going to add a Pilot dropsuit specialization that will require Light Frame 5, so this is something you'll need eventually anyways and give you something to do on the ground without diverting skill points into something that won't benefit your final goal. One thing I will suggest is adding one enhanced or complex armor plate to this frame, it's almost a necessity. Don't worry about the speed penalty, it's not as bad as it sounds. |

There's going to be a pilot suit for all races and it'll just add a color to the light frame similar to how Scouts add blue to the light frame, Assault adds white to the medium frame, Logistics adds yellow to the medium frame, and Sentinel adds green to the Heavy frame. So Gallente or Minmatar light, whichever you like best.
And yes running a AV Minmatar light as you described does sound like it could be a fun way to contribute when you are not in the skies. Probably add an AV grenade to that and nanohives in your equipment slot. Just remember to put at least an enhanced armor plate on that suit, if you plan on running it with base armor and shields you're crazy. And since you'll have a proto you could probably have room for 2 enhanced armor plates. Honestly that's where I think you get the most bang for your buck. Gives you a lot more armor than one complex armor plate and slows you down the same, just takes up that extra slot. And 10% speed reduction is nothing to sweat on a light suit, you're still fast. Alternatively, you could try to add complex shield extenders but that's even more of a skill point investment and doesn't beef up your hitpoints as much as armor would. |

With that being said the jets are pretty far away from the current build and i would not be expecting them to be released for over a year from now. No don't waste sp on engineering, it's the most useless skill in existence right now, only reason you should get it is to get PG upgrade modules, don't even think of taking it to level 5.
I was a big dropship guy last build and one thing I noticed was vehicles are pretty PG reliant, so why not go for Engineering which gives you more PG per level? |
