There I was in my T-38, pulling up for a start of a loop. G suit filling up, sun glinting off my visor, thinking......man this svcks! Right then I decided I wanted a C-141 to travel and see the world. Ended up in Buffs, based in my home town, in an apartment 1 1/2 mile south of mom and dad! Oh well....1st Lt upgrade to AC, ended up with 2800 hrs in the 52. No complaints. Did alot of interesting stuff.

The point is....you may decide that fighters are'nt for you. Don't look down on those that flew/fly the heavies. How do you think you got to your combat base? Bet you a tanker brought you across the pond, a cargo guy brought the spare parts and weapons, etc.

Don't worry what you think the airlines will want. Do what you want to do. Remember, fighters....all PIC. Bombers....lots of flying, working with another pilot, and the ability to carry tons and tons of "fun toys"!

Good Luck!
