Actually, the funnest fighter to fly would be an F-86 or F-100. However, we accept the new technology and work around it as best as we can. A jet without missiles may not be a killing machine, but guns only BFM is about as good as life gets for a fighter pilot.
Fresh off a CT BFM hop...now out the door for a backseat TI....

"I see that our new payrates are effective on October 31 of this year. Does that mean that the October 31 check will be calculated using this payrate, or will the first time we see the new payrates be Nov 15?"
Sorry to return this thread to its original subject, but I just checked my Oct 31 pay on the green screen and it is at the old pay rate. Ok now you military guys can go back to bashing each other.

Not what I meant...
[QUOTE=MAGNUM!!;73164]I don't think his comment was tounge in cheek. It WAS sarcasm, but I don't think it was meant how you took it. I also don't think my response was "touchy." If anything was "anti-military," it was his sarcastic post. At any rate, I don't feel guilty about going to fly the F-22. Should I? Further, the "anti-military" tack was directed at him, not you. YOUR Saudi time is pretty much irrelevant to the discussion. Nobody was accusing you of being anti-military.
Hey Magnum, stand down. My post was not sarcastic or anti-military, it was curiousity, period. I was just asking if you volunteered for this posting or not. If you remember, in your first post of this thread, you just mentioned you were going away (military) for a couple of years. You mentioned no particulars, i.e. going to fly an F-22, or going to a staff job. I was just plain curious if you had been involuntarily posted to the position or volunteered for it. As a USMCR Light Bird(ret.), I had been given "good deals" by my monitor in the Puzzle Palace that I wanted no part of. Yeah, they turned out to be for the most part career enhancing, that still does not mean I wanted to do them at the time( AWS, Air Officer for an FSSG, etc...). THAT was the meaning of my question.
Imagine my surprise/horror when I return to this thread a couple of days later and find World War III had broken out. Oh, it is pretty hard for me (8 years regular/ 13+ reserves) to be anti-military. Finally, I do not know how it is in the Air Force, but in the Corps, we shoot in the face not in the back. If I was trying to say anything to you like I was accused of, you would have known that in no uncertain terms.
