I haven’t given much thought to flying but I’ve always loved fast dangerous stuff since I was a kid. I have great eyesight and reflexes. I just don’t know if it’s worth the effort with the proliferation of UAV’s.

In regards to the flying portion...
So you go for it and get a UAV and do that for any amount of time...but in the end still like the contracting/acquisitions idea. Did it occur to you that in 20+ years the USAF will probably be buying more UAVs than manned aircraft? Just a thought
