I thought you'd look something like this -

A huge brain filled with comparative flight data for all aircraft from 1914 to the present day

Actually thats closer to the truth than you realise Chortle! Appearances can be decieving.

BTW Wil, you are one LUCKY sob.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy, but let me get this right.

You just spent a year in the Navy.
Now your going away to adventure camp?
Then your going to go see if you can learn to fly jets?

Right?

Do it while your young kid. Plenty of time to sit around on the porch & bs when your old.

Ohhh & BTW how many more years till the contract with the devil is up? Nobody has luck as good as yours.

I love it, wanna do it again, greatest experience I've ever had, even better then gliding!

Better than sex?

Maniac, I can't comment on this as there might be a chans (however small) that my girlfriend sees this thread

Verm, I'm almost jelous of myself

Hey Ghosth!

Yeah, 2 months in the Army, 15 months in the Navy and another 10 months (still counting) in readiness status in the Navy (swenarp=Swedish Naval Rapid Respone Force). Educated smokediver in the Navy (BA for you brittish guys).

Going to adventure camp now for 10 months. After that I'll apply for Fighter pilot and chopper pilot, see if I get in. If not I might go for commercial airliners or keep on doing adventure sports for a few years, eco-turism is growing quite rapidly now

The contract with the devil? No contract, we just sleep together as you know

About luck... yeah, it feels like everything is falling in place right now, by getting to fly a small Jet trainer/attack plane (well, former attack plane) one of my almost life long dreams have come true. Next in line would be military pilot, demands are very high so chances of getting in are very slim but there is always a chance

Nilsen, thanks I'm glad you liked them! Let me know if you want any of them in full size

Id sure like some full size pics of mirage 2000 and Gripen
