How the heck can you swap, unless you are trained to be an Aviation Officer? Also why in the heck didn't you decide that route prior to commissioning?

I think AAC has non rated officers, Ground exec comes to mind. Waste of skills to use rated Os in jobs like administration, supply, etc that have no need to fly. I know the AAC EM wear aircrew wings even if they do not fly.

It depends. Are you active or reserve? Because I doubt you can switch your branch before BOLC if you are active, but if you are reserves, then there MAY be a chance. You will have to talk to your branch manager.
Also, I want you to know that you will have an opportunity to switch branches later in your officer career, when you hit CPT. So keep that in mind!
