QUOTE=recceguy;9537287]Oh, what does it mean ? In fact, I have heard that a couple of times in airlines cockpit : if I had been given a chance, I would have been flying this jet as well.
No, no and no. Basically you were not good enough to be selected, or not committed enough to pass the selection (hard) or the academic exams (very hard also) so you had to pay (a lot) a private school to get a chance to be in the air, to do something ... not even close.
Now my turn : which foreign pilots did impress me the most ?
Answer : the French Air Force Mirage F1CR pilots, who went to all the theaters of operations (Chad, Central Africa, Mali, Irak, Bosnia, Kosovo, Zaire) in their smart single-seat (no nav needed) multi-mission aircraft. Unfortunately retired since last year.
