Guest Sluf Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 If you know anyone who flew the T-38 and their GRANDFATHER flew the T-38, please drop me a msg. I'm looking for 2 or 3 generations of pilots in the aircraft. Sluf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoo Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) Send a PM to Huggy. He and Huggy are the only two consecutive generations I know of that have flown the 38....ZING! Seriously though, PM him. He has more T-38 hours than any other active flyer - no bullshit. BTW, nice signature block (sarcasm). EDIT: Shit, I hate it when I have to edit.

Hacker Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 PM him. He has more T-38 hours than any other active flyer - no bullshit. Is there something about having a lot of time in the T-38 that gives omniscient insight into knowing fathers/sons/grandsons who have all flown the T-38? If so, at how many hours does one achieve that higher level of awareness? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 2 generations are a dime a dozen, but I've never heard of anyone who's grandpa flew T-38s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest STOLSOONER! Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) I'm a third generatation USAF pilot but not all us flew T-38's...I was the one that did not but my grandfather did. He flew 43 different planes while in the Army Air corps and USAF...from the P-51 mustang thru the F-4. My Dad and my uncle also flew T-38's Anything for all of us flyign Tweets...all four of us shared that experience. Oh by the way, if you have ever visited the Auger Inn...you can thank my grandfather for that...He opened that Bar back when he was the Group Commander and President of the Randolph Officers club back in the late 60's.

Bronco130 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 My grandpa was denied a 38 slot because of height, ended up in the KC-135 which he loved every minute of. When I talked to him he said it was the golden years where if you wanted to be a fighter pilot, you got to be a fighter pilot. No track select bullshit. Seems 6'5'' was too tall back then, maybe its still too tall now? I forget.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt4fans Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Dad did the T-37 and T-38, however I got the T-37 and T-44. However, my Grandfather, Father and I all did time at Vance. Three generations at one base, that might be a little rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
