God bless our US Air Force Pilots. My son flew T6s, T38s, T1, and now flies the C17. May God protect you all and bring you home safe after every mission!

I can't imagine flying the F-16 for the first time. That must be a great day.

Make video on mental pressure and sleep cycles of a fighter 👨‍✈️ pilot

[youdoyouplayer]

That’s wild... I had no idea initial flight training was so brief and how immediately they move on once they’ve soloed.

[carsonbloom]

What separates the top guys from the rest? Is it more academic or a natural flying ability? Maybe a combination of both?

[fredsalfa]

That is incredible hearing that. My dad was a P51D Mustang fighter pilot in WW2. He said he trained on the old bi planes then on the Harvard trainer AT6 then onto the Mustang and Thunderbolt at Luke Field in Arizona now Luke airforce base. I guess he had to be the best to qualify to get to fly fighters as well.

I remember when Luke AFB was training F-15E pilots back in the 90s. I used to go out to the flight line and watch the day-to-day operations. I even got to fly the F-15E simulator around a virtual Phoenix. Of course I crashed. Good times. I was at Luke about 2 years ago for a friend's retirement and, WOW, that base has changed.

I'm an aspiring future fighter pilot and I am planning on joining the Air Force as a crew chief and go to school with the mindset of becoming a fighter pilot however if I become a pilot in general I'll be happy.

I couldn’t imagine going from T-6 straight to F-35. Great vid, thanks for posting

You guys are living my dream.Ive always wanted to fly.But recruiter said I had to have natural 20/20 vision (even though I was about to have lasik done).Then told I had to have a brain like Einstein.And that killed me...Army recruiter showed up seconds after speaking with AF.And said they can put me in A-10's.I thought that belonged to AF.But I didnt go for it....I want to be in a jet.You guys are rock stars to me since I was a kid.

[joshmellon]

If I do my best guessing, I'd say we were pretty close in age.. I watched a video of yours where you where training in the centrifuge, and the date in the video is a date that I will remember until the day I die because it was a day I fucked up my life for a few years..

I wish like hell I could have known any other path than the one I did, but it just makes me have even more respect for all you guys that work to get where you are.

Awesome video man, keep em' coming!

[tucuruicomercioerepresenta]

You have to be so blessed to be born in usa and do all This....
That was my dream, but in Brazil Air force is a ilusion.

Good luck for all the guys who dream to be a fighter pilot, be thankfull from your country!

[Silky_J]

I really hope to fly with you one day. Becoming a Fighter Pilot is my dream, and I will be relentless in achieving it!

[i.ak.]

I been interested in flying all my life, I did a summer camp, flying gliders during corona. I was just a highschooler at the time, and I was proud to be one of the three people to be allowed to fly solo first, along with two dudes who were in the Lufthansa academy, who were only there because their flight school was on a stand still during the pandemic. I am confident, I can do it, when it comes to IFT all the way to earning my wings, but I need to find out how to get there in the first place. I live in Germany, and am currently still a citizen here, I do not have the nicest past, didn t do that great in school so far, as I lack interest for most subjects. I mean I do pretty well in certain classes but straight up fail classes I can afford to fail *cough* musical arts.. I just want a ticket to IFT somehow man. That's what I want.

My great uncle was a Lieutenant General in the Air Force, and his son was recently pinned with his second star!

[allbspinnin]

Hazard said if you dont make it, you're pretty much done. No pressure gentlemen. Remember, you only have one life to live so live it with no regrets and give it all you got.

[michaeldoyle]

Retired federal worker military God bless all of you thank you for protecting me and my family can't wait to see you flying in the air

[butterballin]

Thanks for this video! I really want to be a fighter pilot! I'm currently in the Civil Air Patrol and I'm hoping to go to the glider academy. Would going to the glider academy increase my chance of going to the USAFA?

[bodabodaguy]

Whoa you at luke!?!! I live near the base and see fighters all the time, that’s awesome man!
