Okay...from an "old fart"...
I have 6,800 hours...about 500 combat...I've flown T-38's, F-15s, and KC-135's mostly...got some time in B-52s, F-4s, and others.
At this point in my career, I'd give my left...well...you get the idea, to take a UAV position.
BUT..us old guys...they don't want. They are accepting up to Lt Col back on duty to fly these...but not me.
Oh well..it'd be nice!!!
Schwack the bad guy and then go to the club and have a cold one to celebrate???
It doesn't get any better than that!!!
