@@newlife00266 Agreed. Luck plays a small part, for instance being blessed with the physical qualities needed, but 95% of it is hard work. And being a pilot, especially flying a top of the line military aircraft, is far more than just strapping your ass in the cockpit and doing neat aerobatics. Studying and understanding every inch of your aircraft and all equipment that goes along with it, understanding weather, navigation, ancient Egyptian algebra, mission parameters, combat tactics and limits, regulations, restrictions and of course interpreting how you can exploit this knowledge in any given situation. Not to mention all the politics involved. It takes an insane amount of dedication and discipline. It hurts my head and I have the utmost respect for these pilots.

I used to build the munitions and countermeasures for all the fighter jets for the USAF. Delivering my weapon systems, countermeasures, and 20MM to these chariots on deployments was the closest I came to being in one. I was awarded three incentive flights throughout my career for my achievements, but sadly they were either postponed and forgotten about, or something else came up with work that prevented me to be able to get strapped in and taken for a freedom flight. It was always my dream. Much respect to these guys for what they do and how they not only carry out their training, exercises, and missions overseas, but also for the extra hours they put in with things like incentive flights and flying flags over enemy territory for our troops, and dedicating so much time to a job not many people can do. I salute you gentleman, warriors of the skies.

No fighter plane will ever make me want to embrace it like the F-16. First time when I got close to one I literally gave it a hug for few minutes. The second one who gave me that kind of emotional connection to beauty was the P-51D.

There are so many ultra-cool war planes. The F-4 Phantom II is another one. The F-111 looks likes it's moving even when secured.

There's just something about the P51. It's a flying work of art.

I’ll always have a special love for the F-16 as I was a ground support mechanic at Hill on the F-16 in the 80’s. I know it’s an aging bird, but still VERY capable of getting the job done! Fantastic clip, gave me goose bumps on my legs! 😎👍👍

@@uksuv6398 - right on my friend! I believe if I’m not mistaken they had a mission change just shortly after I left. I was there from 1985-1988. It was F-16 while I was there, but then my memory seems to think they had a new aircraft come in but I can’t remember. We’re you on the flightline? What aircraft were there when you were stationed there?

I’m envious of your position sir. Would have been in one had medical issues not barred me from joining. They told me only top 2% became pilots. I answered with well then I’ll be the 1% of the 2%. He liked that. Everything was swimming until they start asking medical history. Ended my dreams real quick. Rest is history. Thx for your service
