Going AF is no guarantee that you'll get to fly, you could end up washing F-111s or something (do they even still fly those?). You will get to live on a base though, which is nice, because you can have sort of a normal life.
I have lots of friends in the Navy, so I'm sort of biased, but I think the Navy is cool. There's so much cool stuff you can do. You can fly, do sub service, do surface warfare, Navy intel is the best, etc... Besides, big ships are cool, and aside from crazy yahoos in bomb-equipped rowboats, no one attacks US warships anymore. If you get on a carrier, it's probably THE safest place to be on earth, more so than the White House. Aside from a nuclear strike, no country on earth really has what it takes to bring down a US Carrier when it's with it's battle group (cept maybe the French, damn Exocets, but they wouldn't do that).
