How about some documentaries? Anybody want to share there favorites. So far I've seen Cocaine Cowboys, Restrepo, the Weirdo Whites of WV, and Food Inc. What else you got?

Looks like the Navy guys feel the same way. https://www.airwarriors.com/forum/showthread.php/155949-Fighter-Pilot-Shortage

For those who got out are you glad that you did? Is there less BS then being AD?

When do the first group of UAV pilots find out if there going back to a cockpit?

If you go Guard/Reserve figure out what your going to do to pay the bills.

I'm always here, causing confusion and anger. It sounds like heavies are the way to go if you want to eat. To many people with such a negative view toward AD to change peoples mind. Life is a crapshoot, just roll the dice.

Are there any people who went straight to a fighter guard unit want to share their experience?

Great idea, what unit are u looking at?

Ski pro will you have enough hours to go to the airlines when you get back from seasoning? Sounds like the best deal is finding a unit who has an alert mission. If you unit is near a ski resort you could become a patroller or ski school.

What I'm still trying to figure out is what jobs will accomdate someone to fly 8-10 days a month besides the airlines and retail/hospitality?

For the guy who is in the Buckley unit, how many are full time. For the ones that are not how many fly for the airlines? I know the guy who runs the website does vitamin sales. Forgot to mention that Utah has a reserve Viper unit and better skiing then Colorado.

Will you be going to a desk job after this tour or is it possible to stay flying?

Is it really better to wait tables just to fly fighters in the guard? I understand that you can find a job but is it really better the AD? At least with a heavy unit you can try and bum and make a living.

Can you post some reasons why your getting out? Is mainly due to family and time away from home? With the current condition of the economy and lack of flying jobs it doesn't seem right. Or is flying for the big blue just to much of a hassle? I understand that every job has it problems. Seems like a lot of people are trying to get in and a lot trying to get out. What are your you going to be doing once your done with the AF?

U guys make working for the AF sound worse then unsliced bread. Leave it alone, why change it now.

When is the Viper FTU suppose to cease operations?

How's Army Aviation lifestyle? Seems like everyone is looking to leave, is it that bad?

I was thinking of switching from ATT to T-Mobile, good or bad idea? Anybody unlocked an Iphone, does performance go down using another porvider?

Are Bone copilots flying more now?

Which phones have sim cards? For the heavy drivers out there which company has the best international plan?

Any March pilots on here?

How do alerts work in general? Do they fly down for a couple days and fly back? Or is there someone permanently assigned?

Any plans to get rid of them after 2012? Seems like a great plane to fly.

Do they still host F-16's from Fresno?

Does Andrews and Peterson still have reserve units?
