A USAF 2nd Lt.'s Ongoing Journal of Flight Training
« on: October 23, 2012, 05:39:25 PM »
Found this interesting weekly journal of how USAF flight training is playing out for a young 2nd Lt.

He's supposed to solo in a Texan II very soon, if not already. woohoo.

Interesting to say the least.

Best.

Well, the 2nd Lt. took his Texan II solo...

and had three red lights and no flaps to deal with...  :uhoh

But training and a cool head saved the day.

It's all unrealistic crap requested by people who want pie in the sky actions performed without an understanding of how things work and who can't grasp reality.
