Congrats! That's a helluva accomplishment. Bet those jets are fast, especially when you bury the throttle......

And if you screw up just this much, you'll be flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong!

I believe that is more the idea of what to do... Problems start when I try to ride the plane on the asphalt, or when i try to fly the motorcycle off the cliff!  Just remember, plane flies, motorcycle rides...

XJ: i got screened from the nuke pipeline... much to my happiness, but props to you for the subs

Cloner: They only fly desks at Kirtland... silly air force.

Now heading to P-Cola in florida to learn how to do it right, and convince them to let me do x-countrys to ABQ

top gun made me want to fly too.


then i realized i would ahve to join the military and that just doens't work for me.

i'm still jealous that you will get to fly the cool planes.
and even about landing on a ship. that has to be a great rush.

CONGRATS ON SNA  [thumbsup]

My current gig is at the naval air warefare center as a test engineer. I make sure the cats work.

If you're unlucky enough to get CODs, maybe you'll get to take me out to the boat.

I'm a pilot too but in the civilian world.

FLY NAVY!!!
