Most jointed for college... Education...

We didn't have the internet... We had typerwriters; w/carbon paper...
IBM were big, at school; at home it was Royal... manual

Those guys got abs of steel to make those turns. 9+ G's... G pants...

Note: the posture of the F/A 18 N' F 16 drivers... Laid back instead of
upright likr we were [You can pull more]

Lots of school before you sit n that SEAT....

The longer your up there, sooner or later something is going to go wrong.
Then, it becomes just a huge Lawn Dart...

also see American birds have the controls on the arm rests. Theirs have the center stick yet...

Ok... I don't want to go in the past.... That'll be a distraction....

I want to move forward... Stay focused.......

Trooly,
