Now those are hats I always dreamed of as a kid! Sometimes still regret I didn't do it, but I insisted on fighter jets, got also offers to go to flight academy for CH47 or AH64 but heli's were not my thing.

For me it was my length at that time, I was a 6'2" kid at 15 and only grew one inch since that time with 6"3' now. Strange thing it was for me always about the tech and serving your country came second. I always admired the speed and agility of the fighters. Me being all thumbs I would also settle for maintenance or engineering, all the new JSF planes within Europe will be maintained by the DRAF.Got offers to be a mechanic instead of a fighter pilot due to my vision.
