He's limited to one position with that low ceiling (if he ever get any). I need a little more space personally.

Didn't only the best of the best fly F-16's? Or was it F-15's?

Does that beat living in an old, beat up RV down by the river?

He lives in it year round and moves around. He and the truck can be found on instagram

Right? That’s how you know he’s an actual pilot. He splurged on the nice A/C, Shower, and Traeger, but not enough (room) left for a proper T.V.? It is a cool setup though for a single non married pilot. I can’t imagine my wife being down with the whole “Into the Wild” nomadic lifestyle. Hopefully he doesn’t get eaten by bears out there.

Heh, you caught that too? Same case and everything..

Overall, while it's definitely not for me, i thought it was a pretty cool well thought out set up if you're into the whole tiny house thing.

Pretty cool!

Im guessing this lifestyle doesn’t require a fast taxi and popping the door to lower block so he can fly 170TFP minimum to just pay the bills.
