Hello. I just signed up here. I've been lurking around on it for a few days now. A lot of usefull information. Great forum.
I'm not any kind of pilot myself but have concidered it alot recently. I've played quite a few flight sims in the past. Combat flight simulator 3 being my most recent purchase.
I was looking into some pilot lessons about a week ago. It's way to exspensive for me. If I really really wanted to I could probaby barely make the costs. But I would be cutting it close and it would be ruff. I'm not sure If I want to go that route. I have to work on getting a career yet. Im 20 and still have no plans for anything.
So what this message boils down to is I just applied for some information on a fighter pilot for the USA Airforce.
I'm not exactly sure if it's the choice I want to make yet.
I'm hoping their might be somebody here that can give me some first-hand information about it. If I did do this I would be in the airforce for the rest of my life probably. I don't see much of a job oportunity for a pilot besides commercial airline. If I got into the airforce I would be totally dedicated to it. Their isn't anything I do that I don't give my all.
I appreciate it.
