Why you gotta pick a retired fighter jet? At least pick something currently in use! Might I recommend the F22... new and sexy without all the controversy of the F35

If you're headed to Houston, you're not missing much. There's a guy yelling on his phone in first.

It's a Christmas miracle! I wish I had my pilots name, I'd buy him a bottle of scotch. Shaved 30 min off my flight and after a Bolt like sprint I got the door before it closed. I was willing to long jump it if they had pulled the bridge away

The F1 Mirage was a mainstay of the French Air Force in the 70s and 80s. It was also flown by the Iraqi Air Force until we shot them all down in Desert Storm. I think you meant F-35...or at least an F-18. The important question is whether your ex Navy pilot in the cockpit will get a good trap and an OK pass. Call the ball Maverick.

Didn't realize FB was filled with plane aficionado. Okay well then I'll say he was flying the Avro Arrow #FromYourFriendlyNorthernNeighbours

Lot of ex military in consulting. It's like we never left and we take our weapon systems seriously. So now you know. . Peace. :)
