    I worked on Tripple Nickle aircraft while stationed at Udorn RTAFB. They flew the F4D aircraft in those days. While stationed at Ubon and Udorn, they had racked up over 25 mig kills. I left Udorn in October of 1968.

    In the 20 years in the U.S A.F. I always wanted to jump out of a perfectly good airplane but never got the chance. Some call me Crazy but I think I'm just think it would be a thrill. I just turned 70 and had my first helicopter ride about two years ago. May be hope for me yet. LOL

    During World War II, a native Pole, Franciszek Gabryszewski, flew, among others, on the p47 thunderborld, he turned out to be the best pilot of the US Air Force in Europe. He defeated / shot down 28 German planes. He reached the rank of colonel. At least that's what the Pentagon said. But that's not the most important thing in this case. Well, his daughter-in-law has reached the rank of general and each of the ladies-pilots can do it.

      they are not allowed to fly single seaters as a cadet. They have not been trained on the aircraft. All single seater aircraft have a two seater version. They are not allowed to fly a single seater version until they have been certified by an instructor pilot. This does not happen until they become active duty Air Force. Even the Thunderbirds have a two seater F16 version. The Thunderbirds often take dignitaries on rides in the two seater. When the Thunderbirds travel, their announcer flies the two seater.
