Sorry, I should've been more specific. I would be more than okay with what you listed there..but I was talking more along the lines of fitness required for a Guard fighter pilot to handle the physical stresses of that type of flight.

A lot of the time out of the cockpit would make it harder to keep your g-tolerance and motion tolerance high, no?

Thanks again!
