Army here, we always tease the airforce. Picking with them, they called us names as well, was just what we did. At the end of the day we are all brothers & sisters. Those Flight Suit Insert's saved my ass on a few occasions. I have mad respect and that's real talk. 100th Fighter Squadron is no joke. They provided a sense of security to us on the ground. The sound of those support jets was music to our ears.

@Tyler Lindahl Military folks are easy to pick out. It's all the damn rules about dress and personal appearance. It's been 20 years and I can still remember a random ass code AFI 36-2903...PS the mustache is the only facial hair you're allowed as having a beard/goatee/excessive side burns interferes with proper fit/function of gas masks. We used to see other people's military on our base with their full beards and wonder if they were under a chemical attack how they would survive.

My grandfather flew the P-47 Thunderbolt or simply The Jug during WWII and my dad flew the RF-4 in Vietnam he couldn't help the guys on the ground because he shot everything with a camera. He didn't even have chaff to protect himself against a SAM. Growing up hearing those stories I didn't want that route so after law school I became a JAG lawyer for 23 years and I joined the Army.

I had the absolute honor of flying both with & alongside Lt. Col. McGinn call sign "Homie" & what that man can do in an F-16 is simply amazing! I remember 1 training day in the states he & Hollywood took out our whole class in dogfight training he can do an F-16 do things that you would only expect to see in a movie. I've flown the F-16, F-15C SE, F-18, & recently had the chance to have some fun in an F-22 & while they're all different in their own ways the F-22 is in a class of its own I can say that. Some of the stuff that plane does defies the laws of physics I loved every minute of whipping that aircraft through the Mach Loop in the UK during the big air show held annually over seas. I don't think I'll ever get a chance to experience the new F-35 Lightning but in the event I do I can only imagine what that bad boy is like in the Mach Loop! I have a buddy who I watched grow up & he is now a fighter pilot his self & he was fortunate enough to get selected for the Lightning program & said that "it's a feeling like no other! Especially with the tech that it is equipped with"

What exactly was your intention with this reply? It doesn't matter if 99% of the time they're simply on alert, because when the time comes, these highly trained intelligent service members are there for the ground troops. The reason the US is powerful comes down to total air dominance, whether that's aircraft from the air force, navy/carrier groups, or marines/expeditionary groups. Also, as pointed out specifically in this video, they're flying very low on some attack runs. The enemy has more than rusty AK47's, but even the AK47 can get a lucky shot causing damage to the lone engine, especially when the enemy knows how effective the aircraft are and the fact they'll be dead or will be forced to retreat if they don't attempt to counter the air support. So, you're either a jealous member of the armed services on the ground, which I find highly unlikely due to your disrespect, or you're an asshole. Either option is terrible.

I have around 30 hours in the T-6 and around 25 in the T-38. I hope to get into the Air Force academy and go fly a-10s. I couldn’t imagine what it would be like to fly the F-22 with the maneuverability and vector thrust.

So incredible. What a tremendous responsibility and sacrifice. I love how much respect they have for the airmen before them and for their unique experiences in battle that they had to face. I don't think man should have ever created war and in truth there is no reason for it. If division between one person and the next didn't exist, murder/attack/domination would not be a means and there would be no means for counter attack or defense. But as it stands, its a way of life today, and I salute all veterans for their courage and sacrifice to willingly go into the face of danger.

The guilt I feel is insurmountable. I wanted to be in the Air Force from a young age courage, but let the young life get ahold of me, and now I'm 27 and desperately want to be a fighter pilot but never went got my 4 year degree, despite my potential I wasted. It sucks to watch them fight without more support. I should be there.. I feel like that was my calling all along.

I've wanted to be a fighter pilot too, there is a conflict inside of me. Join a war that has no part of my life, for a moment of fulfillment, or to join another career or path. The military is a big deal

You've got 5 years to start working on it. If you want to fly fighters a great place to start looking is the National Guard. As an example the wing in this video is National Guard from Alabama. If you go through the Air Force you compete with others in your class and other UPT bases for a fighter. If you get hired by a guard wing you know exactly what you are going to fly before you even go to flight training. Find a fighter wing in your state and get to know them. One smart way to get on is to go enlisted with them first while you are working on college. A private pilots license is a plus too. At this point your biggest thing to work in that direction though is getting the degree. I took this from the US Air Force website....."Becoming an Air Force Pilot requires you to meet strict physical, medical, vision and academic requirements. Applicants must achieve qualifying scores on the AFOQT exam, meet all requirements and pass a selection board prior to age 33.Becoming an Air Force Pilot requires you to meet strict physical, medical, vision and academic requirements. Applicants must achieve qualifying scores on the AFOQT exam, meet all requirements and pass a selection board prior to age 33." You've got time.

I’m going to try to be completely politically unbiased but considering the geopolitical state of the world at the moment and coupled with the economic & societal strife in the United States ( and obvious weakness ) , It’s actually the best time to give your talents up to the government if that’s what your true desire is . There’s currently a well documented pilot shortage on all fronts and that opens up the opportunity for ANYONE with fixed wing experience to try to get a reservist spot at a base in your state .

@@isideyou6018 welp I got a call from the instructor asking if I wanted to reschedule due to poor air quality and visibility from smoke and I agreed. I live in Oregon where there are those massive forest fires going on and where I live the smoke thick enough to only let you see about a half mile to a mile out which would just about ruin the experience. Today was pretty damn disappointing but I’m rescheduling it as soon as it clears out and I get my new work schedule.

Man I am so curious about this one thing! ...lol... I want to know, is it possible to suffer a hang fire or squib load in your gun set up in your fighter aircraft? I'm trying to imagine if the wing explodes? Does it cause all the guns to jam on that one side?
