The DC-3 is, in my opinion, the best aircraft ever made. However, I maintain that planes are not built for aesthetics but rather for performance. That certainly does not mean that they are bad looking, but the fact that they look good is not a primary goal.

Yeah man, I had no hours at all. The biggest component in getting here is your GPA, PFA scores, how you do at field training, and your PCSM score. My top end right now would be a 15C or 16.

We had a drop night here on Friday, aside from a KC10, C17, and C130 everyone up for assignment dropped a fighter. Including two 22's and a 35. Its a great time to try and get a fighter

Unfortunately I've run out of good WP's.

Great to hear! I'm so excited even to get to Pilot Training! The planes we fly now are so slow and boring, but thats the idea. But I've nearly maxed my PFA score, and I can crush it with the tests. I'm confident I can earn that slot, and later on, a fighter. Thanks for the knowledge, bro. See you around.
