These are all really fun videos, thanks for sharing. I just go picked-up with the 168th to go to UPT and fly the KC-135R and have enjoyed seeing what the lifestyle may be like as a pilot on the Stratotanker.
Thank you for your comments WillScaryForCandy, and congratulations on being commissioned into the 168th ARW. Most importantly, obtaining the rare opportunity to attend SUPT. You are well underway toward an exciting experience, and career. Thank you for serving. Bravo!
Awesome video as usual there Anthony. I have realised how fantastic it is to be around military hardware and crews during my life and even more so in the last month or so. If you have seen my flight in the Strikemaster Light attack aircraft, that is now my aircraft. I am the sole ground crew member for that aircraft for the private operator but all the pilots who fly it are all ex military pilots/instructors and we run run it like a military operation with precision timing for take offs etc. As you know, I've never been in the military but always wanted to. This kind of makes up for it. Nice to see new material from you as always. Regards
Andrew
Thank you Andrew. I'll search for your Strikemaster footage soon. Sounds like a great position in which you operate. You have a serious responsibly for equipment and personnel that would never be taken for granted. I am sure all your efforts are met with sincere appreciation. Congratulations.
So that’s what my dad did on all those trips he went on.
Happy to provide some insights of KC-135A operations David Sandell.
Are you a pilot yourself?
Thank you for your question flandersrobby. Yes, I am narrating and conducting an aircrew interview, as copilot, on the tanker. We were over the Pacific enroute for Hickam AFB, HI.
If you don't mind me asking how did you get a commission/become a pilot in the USAF? I'm finishing up high school, and I would do anything to become a pilot in the Navy or Air Force
My path was via the university Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC); and within that program, qualifying as a pilot candidate.
What where your grades like?
Respectfully, I was an average high school student, and all one requires is a general aptitude. I wish you the best of luck, and continue to persevere.
