The answers are not rude or hostile. They are telling you the truth, even though it's a difficult truth to tell. If you want to fly, become a commercial pilot, then you'll get to do it all the time. The air force is not about flying, it's about using planes to fight a war. Think of it from the perspective of the air force. They are investing millions in you to make you a pilot, and then trusting you with their 80 million Eurofighter.
