No, you are not eligible to appear for the AFCAT examination conducted for the recruitment in the Air Force as an officer.

The minimum required qualification to appear for the Flying branch is the age between the 20-24 years and must have passed the graduation in any discipline with at least 60% and have the mathematics and the physics as the main paper in the 10+2.

The examination is conducted twice in a year in the month of the February and the September every year. But still you can wait for the notification of the 2016 February examination.
