  • US Air Force Pilot Training - F-16 Fighter Pilot Training at Luke Air Force Base
    In this video, we'll take a look at what goes into training at fighter pilot to fly the F-16 during the F-16 "B-Course" or Basic Course at Luke Air Force Base, AZ. Two Luke AFB instructor pilots discuss the training and mindset that are involved with preparing a pilot to fly combat missions in a deployed environment or to perform other aerial combat missions.

    I live about 5 or 6 miles from Luke. I still act like I did when I was a kid on Luke Days where u can sit in the f16s and stuff. I used to love going down to the end of the base and watch the planes take off. and now they have those f35s. nasty. nasty. nasty. machines.

      Liberty prime Robco its expensive yes, but it is the most stealth fighter jet we have, being maneuverable and able to land in several places the f-16 and the f-22 raptor can't. So it doesn't suck.

      Isaiah Bryant But compared to enemy competition, it's slower, has a lower flight ceiling, has a lower range, is less maneuverable, and over all would not win in a dog fight.

      @Ben H if you’re 15 now since this comment was posted like one year ago, you should prepare, since grade 9 onwards is when you start planning on joining the Air Force. Do keep in mind, generals make 120,000 dollars a year, but you won’t always live at the base, so you might have like 75,000 dollars to spend, depending on how your lifestyle is. Hope to see you in the Air Force when I get there :)

      TheSith Jojoson I believe a chart is on the Air Force website that lists the appropriate weight to height ratio. I can remember if 6 foot is the maximum but I think it's close. I'm 5'11" and my minimum weight is 140Ibs. and I'm about 135Ibs. as a senior in High School. So, I got some gains to make!

      People can become astronauts without military flight training experience too, unless they plan on becoming the pilot or commander. Quite a few astronauts are civilian researchers & engineers, as well as non-pilot former military.
