The problem with answering the OP's question is that fighter pilots are a small statistical subset, even in a survey of RAF officers. My extensive research (5min on google!) threw up two surveys for pilots generally; an ALPA (US pilots union) which showed pilots dying three years younger than wider population. Confusingly, figures from a study of American Airlines pilots showed the opposite, with them living five years longer than average American white males.
