My nephew got a fighter pilot slot!!!!

[maybelooking]

He's been training in a turbo prop not knowing if he would get a fighter slot or fly cargo. He made fighter!!!! Starts in a T-38 in a few days. Later this summer he will find out what plane he will get. He wants either an F-16 or an F-35.

My vote is F-16. Its always been my favorite jet fighter!!!

Very proud uncle for sure!!!!!!!!

Good for him. If he gets his final ticket, they will pay him beaucoup bucks just to re-enlist as long as possible. Someone I know said they just paid his kid $200K to stay on flying an osprey which he was planning to do anyway.

When you get up every morning loving what you do so much , you never worked a damned day in your life

When they have to stuff your pockets overflowing with cash to stay, you basically own your boss........lolol

When I reported to basic training a sergeant came into my barracks and shouted "Who wants to be a pilot?" I raised my hand and he led me outside. "See that truck load of lumber over there?" I said yes and he told me to unload it and pile it by the supply room. I should have known better.

And with good reason. No matter what airframe he gets, that's still badass.

And the -16's always been my favorite jet, too. But I have to admit, the -38 is a damn sexy jet.

Tell him joining the military is throwing your life away. That is what the GOP says.

200K should just be for the hazard pay for flying that piece of trash. One of the worst planes the US has ever had.

I have a hard time believing that there is a single US aircraft with a worse safety record.
