sad thing this movie is so old that the AF doesnt need to recruit anymore. I'm currently serving in the AF at Minot AFB, and the branch as a whole is overstaffed, while some jobs are undermanned. While we still need people to replace those getting out its not as bad as it use to be. The AF as a whole is not hurting just some career fields.
I dont know what this crew chief is talking about its not hard to be a pilot? Im a structural maintainer on RAF Lakenheath in the UK i work on F15's C & E and HH60 Pave Hawks trust me its not easy to be a fighter piolet i just did a full paint on a C model and met the commander its amazing how much goes through there head. . .By the way crew chiefs are the dumbest fucks ive ever seen get a real job
LoL it's hard even to become an officer and that's required to be a pilot, but it's even harder to become a pilot! However I've built model planes since I was five, so I've got a pretty good chance I think!
i'm at luke air force base as a crew chief, and out of a whole fiscal year, 2 or 3 fail out. it's really not that hard to be a pilot. you'd be surprised. some of them are idiots.
really? i was always told you have to have a 4 yr degree, and that it is very competitive to be a pilot. Especially now with drones taking over the scene. maybe there is hope for me yet
Well I dunno, cuz like you go to school and come out an officer you technically out rank a Master Sergent and those guys have been in the military for years. But you are no way in hell better than he is.
The Air Force of today is just too hard to get into. I mean I can handle the physical stuff no problem but to be a pilot you need all these academic requirements and shit.
Yeah but what I'm saying is they make academics a requirement even though it has nothing to do with having good piloting skills. Like the DMV tests you can pass the driving test will full marks but if you fail the written tests you still wont be able to get your DL.
Wrong. If you aren't good at academics, you'll have a hell of a time getting through pilot training, later in FTU, and even once you're mission qualified. You never stop studying your aircraft, tactics, the enemy, etc. etc.
Yeah but all I'm saying is that there are just some people a lot actually that are pretty damn smart but just have a hard time in academics. I'm one of them I mean I have a pretty decent IQ but when it comes to academics I'm a B- student at the most. Like I can get the idea no problem but its like you know.
although the language is unnecessary earthlink you are wrong. you dont need to go into the airforce academy to fly one of those beautiful planes. but you do need to be an officer in the airforce. and when you are an officer you need so many hours in an F-16 before you can fly. Dont get it twisted. Also after you come out of the airforce academy you start as a 2nd lutenant which is the lowest position on the officer food chain.

for one yeah you do need to go to the academy to fly anything with the f in front of it and of course you will come out as a second lieutenant do you think there going to give a general spot to some one that hasnt even been in that long you need to work your way up

Be sure to bring your masters degree in avionics and physics from The Air Force Academy with you - like the other 500 guys will do to fly one of those 25 new hot jets!! WHAT - you just finished high school? General, do we need a clerk in Nebraska?? What about a floor sweeper in Alaska?? Join the team!!! Hey, all teams need clean floors too - just in case you missed what we were trying to say in this commercial!!
Don't need to fly a plane to get shit done. Now sure it's a tough spot to become a pilot, but I don't recall the "floor sweeper" careerfield being mentioned. Sure the pilot get's the chicks, but it takes guy's on the ground to get shit done.
USAF- Killing people and breaking their things since 1907
More semantics, it was actually the Aeronautical Division, Signal Corps, from 1907 to 1914, the Aviation Section, Signal Corps, from 1914 to 1918, the U.S. Army Air Service from 1918 to 1926, the U.S. Army Air Corps from 1926 to 1941, and the U.S Army Air Forces from 1941 to 1947.

Very - Very doubtful - in fact I am damn sure it is right next door to impossible -- being a MARINE AIR VET -- and a Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech grad!!! Now boys & girls - line up to suck it because that is as close as you're gonna get to ANY cockpit!!! MARINE AIR CORPS - when you absolutely, positively must have it completely destroyed before 10:00AM tomorrow morning!!!!
yup in the air-force all we do is play tag in mult-million dollar aircraft.
