FighterPilots.Net
we're not a 'flight simulation' web site
As you can imagine, I support Sen. John McCain for US President
Ike, FighterPilots.Net webputz
This is Homeplate
to Fighterpilots.net.
Tune in your "TACAN", or set us as a "WAYPOINT", and land
here for awhile.
Taxi into the Flightline revetments or wander around the
base.
Go to the Command Post and join the squadron
the Membership form is
back Code 1
{after a long spell as a 'hanger queen'. I'll plead DNIF}
Parts of the airbase are under construction
but the Officer's Club Bar
has a table where you can tell or hear some War Stories!
You can help with your stories, pictures, and
information about your interest in Aviation Combat Arms and warfare with a
military airplane.

Mentality*" to JOIN our
Fighter Squadron. |
For purposes of discrimination, a "Fighter" is defined as a
heavier than air, fixed-wing craft that has (or had) some form of destructive or
offensive purpose, (including 'electronic' or for fighter training); has a
"G" loading capability of not less than 7.33 G's clean; is manned by
one pilot but may have other 'offensive or defensive' crewmembers; routinely
flies upside down or does aileron rolls (Remember, "It doesn't count as
a Fighter Mission unless you've been upside down" - Ike Sweesy, F4, F104,
EF111); and has a designation that includes
"F", "A", or includes some other accepted Fighter prefix
such as the G91 or MiGxx. Note: some Fighters were manned by two
pilots (F4C in Vietnam), but the 2nd pilot was employed in weapons
delivery and not primarily piloting.
Now, if your favorite craft does not satisfy this criteria, and you insist
that your bird qualifies as a 'fighter', then send your explanation (and maybe a
picture) for liberal consideration. For instance, the T-33 was originally a
Fighter and was also used in Fighter Training for many years.

Don't miss HIGH FLIGHT.
Every pilot, and especially every Fighter Pilot should have this memorized like BOLD
FACE procedures.
