I gained a lot of respect for fighter pilots in the 20 years I spent as a USAF EWO in the F-4 and F-111.
I've since spent almost as long in the private, non-governmental software business, mostly in small software startups.
I really don't see that a fighter pilot is likely to have very many insights that would really be applicable to my current business, any more than a software development manger would have a lot of insight into leading a flight of fighters.
Frankly, I had to unlearn a lot of military stuff to fit in to the commercial software industry.
